I lost it. They were both dead meat! I had to cool down first because I was just too upset. After I punished them I decided to leave the mess so Jared could see it when he got home. I turned on the tv to try to calm down and relax. Seriously, not even 10 minutes later Bella started chewing on it some more. That just confirmed my suspicions that Bella was the master mind behind all of the destruction. Don't get me wrong, Floyd was just as guilty for participating, but we never had these problems until miss Bella came along. Here is a list of things that have been done since Bella joined the family....1 couch
3 stuffed Christmas decorations
1 dog house (she has torn off the wood, shingles, and insulation)
1 back yard (it looks like a war zone. There are more holes than I care to count. One of them went all of the way down to the sprinkler pipes)
4 blankets
1 dog bed
4 plastic dog bowls (we now only use metal)
hundreds of dog toys, which is fine, but she destroys them in seriously less than an hour.
And I'm sure many many more things that I just can't think of right now.
Things destroyed before Bella came along, when Floyd was an only child...
1 pair of shoes
It has been a rough week in many different ways, and this just was the icing on the cake. Bella has now been sentenced to life in a kennel.
Someday I will forgive, but that day isn't today. Jared told me they are just preparing us for all of the things our kids are going to do to us in revenge for all of the things (mostly Jared) that we did to our parents. Maybe some day I will tell all of the stories I've heard of Jared as a kid and all of the things he destroyed. They are really funny stories, but I'm sure they weren't at the time.
I'm learning patience, but I'm still a beginner.
