so today I came in to the living room to find my husband loading the dogs into the car (we don't keep it locked) and I asked him what he was doing. he said he wanted to bring HIS dogs home. I said they are home and he said, "NO! THESE ARE MY DOGS!" So I said, well, let's take them for a car ride. We did and then he forgot about taking them home and when we got back we all went in the house for dinner.

You are so GOOD!! Did I tell you guys about how my Mom was crying every day wanting to know why my Daddy hadn't come to see her. No matter how many times I told her that he was already in heaven, she did not remember and was still upset. One day she told Hubby, my husband has not been to see me in weeks and started to cry again. He looked her straight in the eye and said, Honey he's on a big drunk. She said, "I knew it!" She never forgot that, and talked about it for weeks!!
