It was overcast this morning when I woke up. I must be my mother’s daughter because whenever is it overcast outside I tend to feel a little down. As Judd was getting ready to leave this morning I couldn’t help but feel sad and a little lonely. He works so hard and I really am so proud of him but he leaves every morning at 9am and doesn’t get back until 11pm. It is crazy that I never see him. I expected us to see each other so much once we were married that we would be sick of each other. I have quickly found out that it is really hard to get sick of someone that you never see.
Anyway, I started sniffling a little as he was leaving. I couldn’t help it. I knew that it would only make him sad that I was sad but I was seriously bummed. So he did what any rational man would do. He grabbed our puppy Nixon and threw him on the bed with me. I guess the real reason we got Nixon was to keep me company while Judd was gone all day. Now just a little information about Nixon. He is your typical puppy. He will be super hyper and want to explore and chew and sniff EVERYTHING and then fifteen minutes later he is passed out on the floor. So when Judd put him on the bed this morning I was expecting Nixon to run around and make me chase him and get more upset. But instead of running around and chewing on everything, Nixon just looked at me. He came over to me and cuddled up right next to me. I think he knew that I was upset and not in the mood to play with him. He is such a sweetheart. After Judd left he and I just cuddled in bed until I finally felt well enough to get up. I love him. That is puppy love right there.
