decision making is not my forte


In an effort to stop Sampson from crying/howling/just being sad I adopted two puppies from the animal shelter, thinking that if he had friends he would stop. However my logic was not correct. I got the dogs on Thursday, it is now Sunday and Sam just barks at them. He seems fine with them he just doesn't seem to interact with them. Which is not what I expected. They however are puppies and are into everything which I guess I didn't really think about until I was trying to do homework this weekend and the fact that Sam is barking all day drove me nuts, but I couldn't keep them in the house b/c I can't watch them (they chewed my computer battery charger wire this morning while I was typing grrrrrr!) So I need prayer. One that the dogs will get along and Sam will get used to them and like them. and 2 that I don't loose my mind trying to train them! Oh and I'm so scared of making another wrong decision that I can't pick names! I miss Mike-he was so much better at all this stuff or at least I could ask him and he would veto my crazy ideas!!

ummmm.... do you not remember the time rubi chewed threw my phone charger and i had the whole thing taped up....

also, whatever name's you pick will be prefect. really, once you name them, no other name seems right anyway! go Oz and Max!

Casting lots is biblical. Names for each in two cups. If you pull a name and you're disappointed, toss it and pull again. Or just assign them your favorite numbers, or colors (though they come with colors predetermined). Or after presidents (Hoover and Van Buren). Or P/VP teams (Ron, George)... I don't know, it's just a suggestion.

awww they're so cute.. i hope sam gets used to them and that all three do not drive you crazy...
names names what's in a name... just start calling them whatever and if they purk up or say "hey that's it.. i like that one." then listen to them.. or i like the lots thing.. or naming them after your fav dessert.. ahhh meat on my cheesecake..
