Updates and reflection...

Oh where to begin? Let's go with the most exciting news, shall we? Whil and I have added a new member to our family! BoDee Abraham Windsorson Johnson McCutchan. Simply put, the world's cutest Boston Terrier!
Last week, Erica (I miss her!) posted a bulletin saying that her ex-husband was giving away their dog and she wanted to find him a good home. Whil sent me a text saying this was it, he knew BoDee was supposed to be our dog. Two days later, we picked him up!
He's so fucking awesome. He looks so much like Dexter, I find myself calling him Dex on occasion. I tell him he should take it as a compliment, though...so I don't think he minds too terribly.
He's just fallen right into the groove with us. I was a little concerned about him adjusting and all that, but it feels like he's been with us for years. I couldn't possibly love him more.
I'll post pictures soon!

What else? Ah, yes. Well, today is August 25th. It's a strange day for me. Today, I would have been married 7 years. Instead, I barely made it over 7 months. I don't regret the decision I made, it was definitely the right thing to do for both of us, but I always look back and wonder how different things would have been had I not admitted I was wrong and gotten out.

I wish nothing but the best for Jeff, and I remember our time together fondly. I'm lucky in that there's no real animosity between he and I. Truth be told, I don't really think of him that often, outside of the month of August, every year...but I do hope he's doing well and is safe and happy. That's another thing, it's really hard to have an ex-husband who is active duty in the military. I never know what to think...should I be worried about him? Is that the right feeling to have? What am I supposed to do if the worst were to happen? Do I go to the funeral? (Morbid, yes...but I can't help it!) It's all so strange to think about.

Aaaaanyway...yeah.

Work is still work, life is still life.
