He is truly miserable. Barely speaks to me. Plenty to say to other people - just never me. Typical grumpy old man. I have a dog already. My only source of affection. Kids have left and moved on. Very friendly, dog mad existing dog and I would really really really love a Yorkshire terrier. DH has threatened to move out if I do. Can’t bear anymore dog hair or smells, he says. Ok. So it’s him or the dog. I’m seriously considering the dog. Am I being mad? Will I regret this? Also, can a Yorkshire terrier help at all with the bills? No probably not. It’s all such a dilemma. We’ve been married for 350 years. Actually 35, but you know what I mean.
