We got our little baby girl home and she’s doing great, she’s the sweetest most lovable doggy ever!
She slept in her bed in our room right next to me, she had a good night and didn’t fuss at all, she is getting used to all the new faces and places.
Y’all...this pooch was just made for me, not a hyper bone in her little 5 Lb. body, she is 100% lap dog, I know I did the right thing getting her and not a puppy, we have a lot going on around here, grandkids, 3 people with different work schedules, and it’s about to get busier with the holidays, so there would not be enough attention given to potty training and dealing with the demands of a pup, she is perfect!
Right now she is happily laying in her bed by the fireplace, she was a little cold when we went out to “do business” so I am going to put her new sweater on her and let her cuddle with me, we might just take a nap.

Our hotel is nice, realllllly nice. We had no idea how nice, so we drove up here in some comfy clothes.

To top it off there is a swanky wedding reception going on, so a lot of people are dressed to the nines, when we pulled up to check in I had a laughing/snorting fit and squealed “we look like the Clampetts!!!!!”

I guess it’s the Dallas girl in me, we don’t think much of OKLAHOMA around these here parts, that’ll teach me bwahhhhh.

I hope to get some pictures of the nicer parts of the hotel, but I don’t want the snooty staff to see me(why am I always so intimidated by people with big shiny buttons on their clothes??)
What the hell we already made a great impression in our faded jeans and hoodies...ha ha ha!!!

My vacation began at 3:30 this afternoon, I already feel my nerves getting better and my jaw is unclenched so I am calling this vacation a success already.
We had a very productive day at work today and I think things are going to improve a whole lot, we had a “come to Jesus meeting” we vented and we were heard and validated enough to leave a smile on our faces and a sigh of relief...we exhaled after months of stress. There is hope.

JR and I leave tomorrow morning for OKC, we’ll do the touristy thing Saturday and part of Sunday and then we’ll pick up Sissy before heading back home, I am SO excited!!! We’ll hang out at home making our doggy get acclimated to her new home and family a couple of days, then we’ll drive to the hill country for some R&R and of course some outlet shopping. We’re really just playing it by ear and have just loosely made plans which is nice but very unlike psycho planning Sassy!
I go back to work for a week and then I’m off the following week, awesome!

Today I went to get my nails filled and saw what I can’t help but feel is one of the saddest things I’ve seen, there was a bridal party getting manicures, the bride is 8 months pregnant and 15 years old...she had on a very tight T-shirt with “BRIDE” printed on it, her 2 friends were just as young. The bride was obviously miserable and uncomfortable being so big, her poor little body...sad, the whole thing was very sad.
