This last weekend Holly and I wanted to see if we could not spend money and we didn't spend a dime. We watched TV most of the weekend and played Wii. I didn't even work out or anything. We did go to Church/Sunday school, and that is free. So we learned a lesson, it is possible to not spend anything, but at times can be rather boring. We are so used to eating out, going to the movies, going bowling, and other such date things. We know we need to curtail this behavior.

This morning I had a bad morning. Apparently little Princess Leia is smart. She got under our king size bed this morning right before I was supposed to leave for work. She knows it is time to go into her crate. She also had a smelly accident under the bed too, which actually woke me up it was so bad, and is still there cause I was late.

To get her out I grabbed a mic stand to push her out and she would dodge it. I yelled. I opened the door downstairs to see if she would come out. I left her alone and she didn't come out. Finally I knew there was only one way that dog was coming out of there. So I scooted the nightstand out of the way and proceeded to lift the king size mattress off of the bed. Then I lifted the mattress below it. Then I finally conquered my goal and grabbed little poopsie(as my wife calls her) and put her in her crate. She just smiled at me and acted as if nothing was wrong. Something tells me I get no respect from this dog.

It makes you think though. A couple that gets a dog usually has children around the bend. Dogs are like starter children. Holly, now she will make a great mom, her kids listen to her and she lays down the law, even poopsie listens to her. But would our kids listen to me? I think I should take the dog to obediance training. Do they have that for kids? They should. Hmm, a new business model, kiddie obedience training or maybe it should be father obedience training. What do you think?
