I'm Getting A Puppy!!!!!

Finally, some good news!!! Today, my mom sent me an e-mail from one of her friends who was trying to find a new family for a sweet little dog named Layla. Layla lives with a family that has a four year old who torments the dog to death. The woman only took the dog in because the person she got it from was going to just keep breeding her. So, tomorrow I get to go meet the woman and see Layla and hopefully bring her home with me!! :) I do feel guilty about getting a puppy when Lily has been the only dog for so long. But hopefully, she can continue to sleep in my bed and the puppy (who is crate-trained) will sleep in a crate at night. So Lily won't feel too left out. Lily also loooooves my mom, so she'd probably rather be with her anyway. I'll post pictures of the little one when I get her.

I had a phone appointment with my doctor on Monday morning. She let me call in to talk to her instead of having a regular appointment since it is so expensive for me to actually go in for a visit. I told her that I wasn't doing great, and after talking it over with her, we decided that I should take a whole Klonopin at night before I go to sleep, since they are longer-lasting than Xanax. That way, I would wake up in a better mood. Then, I could take a half of one in the afternoon. So far, it's been working I think. I feel a little better. Now this little puppy will keep my mind busy for sure!

One week until my appointment with the counselor. Crossing my fingers it goes well!!
