The nice thing about dogs

One of the nicest things about owning a dog is they really don't care if you have just lost your job. They have complete and utter faith that their dish will always have food in it. Rather humbling. If you decide to sleep in for the first couple of days they will be right beside you. They look upon it as "yippee. More time with Mom" little do they know what mom is going through. Being the only breadwinner in a house that is used to having two is daunting to say the least .
Yes, for the hopefully short term I am jobless. The company I contract to has gone on strike. Being self employed the government in its infinite wisdom has decided that as I am self employed I can't be unemployed, so no unemployment insurance. I know it doesn't make a lot of sense. So here I sit, future uncertain but isn't it always that way ? I hope they settle soon and hope that the company doesn't decide to close their doors. Just to ensure that the dogs trust is not misplaced I bought a bunch of dog food tonight with my final cheque. Thank goodness for peanut butter I might have to live on it for awhile.
