I must be Satan!
Ok lets all admit I am a bad wife and get it over with. I have no desire to spend 1000.00 dollars on a laptop so I have become the worst of the worst. I am restricting Internet connection with a service person, causing them to have to go stand in line to use a computer because I am a pay check sucking Military wife. Of course the entire time I am typing this I am smiling which only goes to prove I am Satan himself! Good grief!!! I wont go into explaining any of that because I know everyone out there is smart enough to know what I am actually saying….so I am moving on to the next subject.
If you have or know someone overseas that is looking to save a HUGE amount of money on phone cards I have the address for ya!!! The calls for the hub to make only cost us 4 cents a minute….yup that’s all…I was so excited when I got the news on this. http://oif.spawareurope.net/ and although I don’t pimp out companies this one was a blessing for my bank account.
Now on to other matters….why is it that people that are in a sub-division don’t obey the dog laws? We have them for a reason. Cato gladly told on 2 boxers this morning while he was outside going to the restroom. I always put him on his leash and then I let him go out the back and hook his leash so he can do his business in private. Yes Cato cant pooh-pooh if you’re watching him. He actually holds it until you walk away. So I let him out and I hear him go insane I look out and there were 2 huge mean looking beasts. I tell him to come in and I stand there wondering why would anyone with any brains in there head allow their dogs to walk around the neighborhood knowing that one it is filled with kids and two there is little dogs all around us. In the country that is one thing but in a sub-division that is a whole new ball game. Sure it sucks that you have to take time out to put a leash on them, yes it sucks that if they need a walk you have to remove your butt from the sofa and go outside and walk your dog…ON THE LEASH….having animals isn’t something to take lightly. If you cant handle the responsibility then for goodness sake don’t even bother getting one. Now don’t get me wrong I don’t expectyou to throw your animal birthday parties like I do for Cato (which his birthday is coming up in 13 days) but at least show some sort of sense as a pet owner. Now I am afraid to let Cato go outside unless he is by my side the entire time. I hate that since I try to allow him to pooh in private. Yes I am the one outside with a plastic bag over my hand picking up pooh because I am a responsible pet owner and besides Cato is my fur-kid and I believe in cleaning up his mess….besides I have to baby wipe his butt anyways. You may ask me why baby wipe his butt, or you may even laugh about it but stop a minute and think…would you want him right after poohing and not having his butt wiped to sit down on your crème colored couch? Or even in your lap as far as that is concerned? Wiping his butt takes all of 2 seconds which is far less time then wiping a baby’s butt. This brings me to another subject.
I have wanted nothing more than to find a doctor and have him do whatever is medically necessary for me to be able to have a baby with the hub. Ok the hub always has said no kids but then he started thinking differently in the last year or so. I fell into that trap. I thought a baby would be perfect for us since we have been together for over 5 years now. Perfect time in my head. Then I thought of how we could share such a blessing together. That we would be a whole family forever. I must have been insane because since he has been gone I have mulled this over many times. For one I am older then I was when I had mine…I like not having to take everything but the sink with me to an appointment…I like knowing that I don’t have to deal with crying in a grocery store while everyone turns their head looking at you like you must have pinched the baby. I don’t want to have to compete for my child to have the best of the best. I don’t want to explain why cartoon network is evil. It isn’t but I cant stand cartoons. I don’t want to fight everyone and their brother to get Hanna Montana concert tickets only to have to take Motrin when I got home from all the screaming kids. I like my home to be quiet and peaceful. Its bad enough I spend all day picking up after Cato because yes he throws his toys every where. That is my next subject.
Believe this or not but I swear it is true. I was at the computer the other night checking my bank account when Cato was whining for attention. I told him that mommy was busy for him to watch TV (yes I talk to him like he understands everything…which he will lead you to believe he does) so out of the corner of my eye I see him get up on the couch arm. He was right to the right of me and I had the remote control for the TV sitting on the arm. I kid you not he took his paw and pushed that controller to the floor. The back cover came out and batteries went flying. I made eye contact with the little creep and he took off flying off the couch and out of the living room. So much for telling him politely to watch TV.
Well I guess I am done ranting this morning. I have a headache the size of a mountain and I am in sooo much trouble today anyways with the hub, with another Army wife, and my mom…I am sure others want to jump on that train of finding me guilty without even a jury trial. Oh but least I forget I am just Satan anyways…mean and without feelings….BLAH! Hugggs!!!!!

We have strict doggie rules in our subdivision....people even come up to you and ask if you've cleaned up after your dog. LOL...once I held up her little black bag and ask if they want to check ;)~ ...it bugs me when folks don't clean up after their dogs, especially with a kid that plays outside. stepping in it is gross.
I don't quite get the laptop thing, but all the guys that I personally know over there are using 'borrowed' computer time. And they seem to get a good bit of time every week....enough to message everyone through myspace at least.
You've got some time to throw around the idea of kids. You've got some good points, life does become all about them. It's rewarding and draining at the same time. I tell you this though...one was much easier than two.
take it easy~

thanks for visiting my journal :)
I totally agree with you about dogs/obeying laws; my dog is not "dog friendly" at all; he acts like a rabid dog around other dogs, I know that and I do my best to make sure when we walk, on a leash, we avoid other dogs, cross the street to not walk by them, etc; I can't tell you how many times people have had their dogs off-leash (which is against the city law) and when their dog comes up to Koda, they'll say "he's friendly" and I'll say "he's not".
In your case, I definitely would be afraid to let my dog/kids out to play if big dogs like you mentioned were roaming free; I do hope somehow they get reported because that is not fair for the others of you obeying the rules
I think you are making a realistic decision about perhaps wanting to remain child-free with your hub; I know you will make the best decision for you and him.
have a good day
betty
