I ran out to the vape shop to get a few things and of course Jasper went with me. While in there we all got to talking about dog training, sharing dog stories and the like.
One guy asked me if Jasper could roll over? I explained that his training is more for my medical needs and explained how hes learning to turn off lights (very successfully I might add), we are working on him bringing me meds if i need them and i told them about the deep pressure therapy he does. The guy didnt quite seem to understand when the other one explained to him " hes doing what a MAN should be doing for her and taking care of her."
I busted out laughing at the thought as I would much prefer Jasper to any man at this point. Not that men are bad but Im just not in a place where I want one in my life right now. I have school starting up, a few other groups Im either in or run having things going on, Im still training Jasper and to be completely honest...Im enjoying not having the hassle of a relationship not to mention the drama. Im soo over drama in my life.
Also I dont have "normal" relationships, think 50 Shades of Grey but much much more intense and REAL...I dont want anyone having control over me right now. Sure my finances may be a mess right now but thats soon going to change once I dont have these constant car repairs and vet bills to pay. Once those are all taken care of in March I will have enough coming in each month to even set some back for emergencies and thats a spot I havent been in for YEARS!!!
Ill be paying off my new computer for school from my extra federal aid money, its something I needed for school and it made sense to go ahead and do it. Whats left from that if any Ill stash in the bank or maybe pay for a training class for Jasper, which in a few years when i decide to attend the actual classroom Ill need him with me so there again I can tie the money back to school related.
In other words, Im trying to make my life as uncomplicated as possible so I can be as successful as possible, work myself off Disability and maybe one day even buy my own house.
How did this go from the man story to buying a house??? Well, due to the confidence Im starting to gain by having a Service Dog I can see me doing anything I want to do in life, as long as my dog is beside me.
