Me and You

Tonight I am missing Nathan.  After weeks of having him home with me every night I am finding it lonely to have him again working the night shift rotation at work.  His work usually requires their employees to work rotating day shifts and night shifts but for the last several weeks he was on straight day shifts while he was training for a new position.  Now that the classroom training is over he is back to working two weeks of night shifts each month. 

He is truly my best friend, my soul-mate, and my better half.  I do not feel whole without him.  It is hard to imagine that I have only known him for last 4 1/2 years. It feels like we have always been together. What wonderful years they have been and we look forward to so many more ahead.  

On one of the many happiest days of my life since Nathan came into it. 

I want to dedicate this song to him.  (even though he is not a big fan of Kenny Chesney)  I first heard this song on the radio shortly after we started dating and it took me several days and even a call to the radio station to learn its name and artist.  It touched me.  It is the song that for me sums up how we feel about each other and how extremely special our relationship is.

I love you honey.  Goodnight.

Happy Thursday

Bart

This sweet puppy has stolen my heart.  His name is Bart and he is a four month old American Pit Bull Terrier/Shepherd mix.  Nathan and I became fans of the Best Friends Animal Society by watching the show Dogtown on Netflix.  Since then I have started following them on facebook and periodically browsing through their adoptable pet profiles.  While we are not in the market for another dog it is still fun to look.  That was until we saw Bart.  I know that we cannot adopt him at this time because we have so many other things that we are in the middle of.  But it is a nice dream.  To imagine Jasper and Bart playing together in the back yard and keeping each other company.  And having a little puppy to snuggle up with.                                                                               Jasper is our 3 1/2 year old pit bull puppy that we have had for the last 2 1/2 years.  He tends to have some separation anxiety and we have always wondered if that would be helped if he had a little buddy.   Jasper has been our spoiled baby and is used to having our undivided attention.  It would be good for him to have a friend.  Someone to play with and get rid of all his hyper energy.                                                          

              I will just have to keep dreaming this sweet dream.

Happy Monday
