quick vent...

caution...emotional woman venting...

after running errands this morning, i made my way home only to find that one of the dogs (you know who...koda. maybe a little bit of logan but definitely the majority was koda) decided to play tug-o-war with ally's bed skirt, yeah, it looks like a shredder got a hold of it alright. i was so angry that i called keith to complain and then i cried. i cried for two reasons: 1. because i feel bad for getting so mad over something so materialistic as a bed skirt, because 2. the truth is that he is acting out because he has too much energy stored up and doesn't know what to do with it all.

even though i am fully aware of why he did it, it STILL makes me angry to see things in our home destroyed. especially, things that are hard to come by, like the infant bedding that was a gift and part of a matching set. grrr!

i did let him know that i was and still am not happy with him, but in my heart of hearts i get it...the bed skirt will be replaced, koda will get his exercise (mind you the dog gets a long, 2 mile walk in the morning, about 30 minutes at the dog park (if not more) when it doesn't rain and another walk before bedtime) and i will get over it. in the meantime, i think i will feed off my shopping addiciton, it always makes me feel better. well, maybe window shopping for now.

venting is now over...unemotional woman is now going to clean up the shredded pieces of the bed skirt that were left behind.
