When I woke up yesterday morning I got this strange idea in my head that I just can’t shake.
I want a puppy.
It’s a crazy idea. But it’s like the lights turned on in my head and I can’t shut it off. I say it’s crazy because my husband and I are both allergic to furry animals.
Of course what I really want is a baby, but that’s not happening and due to my illness it might not happen at all. So what’s wrong with a puppy?
I think we can handle the allergy part of the equation. We’re both allergic to dust mites and a few other things so we take allergy medication every day anyway. That should cover our allergy to a dog.
Obviously I won’t just go out and get a puppy to test my theory. I haven’t even told Chris yet that I have this crazy idea turning around and around in my head. When I do though, maybe we’ll spend some time visiting several of our friends that have furry pets to see how we do on those visits. If we’re ok we’ll probably be ok as long as we keep taking our allergy medications right?
Sigh … yeah it’s a crazy idea.
They have those bald dogs you could get or a bald cat. My mother has allergies and if you get a breed that doesn’t shed you might be okay. She has some toy poodles.
