While walking through the mall today, I stopped by the pet store. I normally go in just to look at all of the animals. Today I saw the cutest puppy ever. It was a baby golden retriever with the prettiest little brown eyes you could ever see. This little guy smiled at me and I just had to hold him. Puppy dog eyes get me every time.
I played with him for about 20 minutes before I realized I was getting really attached… almost too attached. I had the store clerk put him back even though I could have played with him for hours. He looked soo sad when he left my arms and headed back to the little cage he was in. It broke my heart to see him stare back at me as though he was saying, “Why don’t you want me?”
I really wanted to take him home, but I couldn’t bring myself to make a purchase like that without the entire family with me. Well, that and I don’t really want to have to deal with dog fur on everything we own.
Black Friday. You either love it or you hate it. I was hoping to get out this year to do some last minute shopping for some amazing deals but I’m not sure I’ll be able to compete with the crowds. I would like to get a portable DVD player for the car when we take trips. One player for each of the kids would be ideal but I’ll settle for one. I’d also like to get a television for the guest bedroom. Maybe I can convince my husband to go out and brave the crowds for me this year.
