Laughadoodles.


 The stepchildren, if some day Mr X and I decide to become an official couple and shack up together, there will be bad news and good news. The bad news is that I will become a wicked stepfather, the good news is that the children, are the furry kind with wagging tails. Even better they already like me.

 The boy is a Labradoodle, the girl is a lamby-doodle, that's a poodle mix that is so cute, it looks like a baby lamb. This morning Mr X and I were sharing giggles as he sent me pics of his attempts at doggy hair trimming. My first remarks at his attempts were, "aaaah" followed closely by "O.O". I told him, all of the other doggies, will laugh and call her names, they will never let poor puppy, join in any puppy games (he got a kick out of that). By the end of the hair disaster cut, it was starting to take shape. Unfortunately the shape is not that of a dog. Going forward at least I know never to let him cut my hair.

 I like a man with a sense of humour, Mr X seems to have the best of all the guys I have been with. One of my favorite giggles I want to share is what it says on the dogs tags. He had engraved, should one of the dogs ever get lost, "my daddy is probably ugly crying right now, please call 555 5555 to reunite us". Hahaha!

Oh, I do like the sound of Mr X and his great sense of humor! You have a lot of fun to look forward to.

It's good to hear you in a happier state of mind. All poodles are sheep before shearing. I've got one of those.

It’s good to hear you having a fine time with Mr. X. You deserve to be happy and have fun. Never lose site of that fact, Steven. And fortunately for me, I’ve got 2 beagle mixes, so the only grooming I’ll have to worry about is a bath. I’m not looking forward to that prospect. I usually take them to a local groomer once a month. But they’re not considered essential services. Obviously the governor has never had to bathe a dog.

I guess this means you like to... doodle.

A sense of humour is one of the most important qualities in anyone!

I've always said that a man with a sense of humor is a man worth keeping.
And what's with all the doodles? Really. Those mixes confuse me.

XOXO

I like a man with a sense of humor too.

This was a well-written entry for I didn't realize until later you were talking about a pooch.
Dogs need time - weeks - to get accumulated to a new person/situation so don't let any initial stand-off (or even hostility) put you off. Soon you will be seen as The Other Dog and fit right in.

Anne Marie, I know funny right? That tells me something about him already.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

JanF, yes he can be funny at times. Makes me feel comfortable around him.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Deedles, I try to visit my happy places to keep away the grey skies.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

HuntleyBiGuy, this is the benefits of dating a dog owner. I get to enjoy the dogs, he gets to scoop the poop!

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Dave yes, we actually tried to doodle a couple of times now.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Debra, I absolutely agree with you. I find it's also a good coping mechanism.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Sixpence, I plan on keeping this man as long as he wants to keep me.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Richard, yes I find they can roll with things a lot better.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Dr Spo, this makes me wonder about all your posts regarding walking your dog Harper, was there an underlying meaning... oh wait of course there was, now just lay down on this couch and tell me all about it!
