Therefore, I am "stuck" watching this wonderful little guy...
ROSCOE!!
My family got Roscoe when I was in 9th grade and since then he has literally been the love of my life. Despite the fact that I am irrevocably a BIG DOG type of girl, Roscoe has and always will be the best dog to EVER live. He's just great... you can ask anyone.
But here's the thing... now that I'm living in Seattle, its harder to watch Roscoe while my parents are gone. I either have to stay at their house in Redmond, which requires a longer commute time to work and play... or I can take Roscoe with me to Seattle (which I've never done before).
Well, I decided to bring Roscoe home with me to Seattle last night. I was worried that he'd be really anxious (yes... he gets anxiety... he's old!) but he didn't! So, I took that as a really good sign. But, this morning, I had to leave him all by himself at our house for the first time... and I'm having a postpartum response. Actually, I just feel like a mom who doesn't want to leave her baby with a babysitter, only Roscoe doesn't have a babysitter, he's by himself...
I'm sure he's fine. Its just that, well... what if he's not fine?? I guess he will have to deal with it. Hopefully he won't go crazy and will be able to relax and sleep the day away. I'll be home after work and that in itself will reassure him that he isn't getting abandoned. I'm still here.
Anyway, I'm sure it will all work out. He will get used to my place and I'll feel more comfortable leaving him home alone... but for now, I can't wait until I get off work and can go home to him.
