The Hubby has been gone for almost ten days on One Lap of America so I have been home taking care of our new puppy, Cleveland. I had no idea how exhausting a puppy can be! From the minute he wakes up to the minute he goes to sleep, he is a constant ball of energy with razor-sharp teeth. Fortunately, I’ve had help from my stepson or I think I may have gone insane. Don’t get me wrong. I adore our puppy and am enjoying getting to know him, but it’s like having a toddler that doesn’t nap. The Hubby comes home tomorrow, and I will be so happy to see him. I will be even happier to hand Cleveland over for a few moments so I can have a bit of peace. It’s a good thing Cleveland is adorable. I need a drink. Cheers! 🥃🐕🐾
