Welcome

I want to welcome everyone to “Debbie’s World”, a world that considers strange and unbelievable events normal. I am not sure strange is the right word but I do know if an unusual event is going to happen, the odds are in my favor it will happen to me, like the story of my dog.
Let me introduce you to my dog, Buddy a black lab mix. When the family wanted a dog, the advocate in me headed straight for the humane society (lovingly called the pound), we would rescue a dog from a life of loneliness and despair. Who knew this pound dog would cost me 325 dollars in adoption fees and another 200 for supplies (okay, so I did not have to let each kid have their own leash) and vet bills. As I was getting over my sticker shock, I remember the bright and teary eyes of his trainer telling me of Buddy’s good and bad traits. Yet, not once did she mention this ninety-pound dog is afraid of the dark. I had to purchase a night light to keep him out and my huband in my bed at night.
So after years of toes up the nose and cliff hanging on the edge of the bed, John and I had begun to enjoy a childfree bed now, we have Buddy the pound dog.
