My Grandpa sent me an email yesterday inviting me over for Christmas. There's nothing like sorta last minute Christmas plans huh? Anyways... I wrote him back saying that I would love to come over, but I want to be able to bring Bamm. He wrote me back saying that he and my Grandma don't think that's a good idea because there's going to be a lot of people there (7 family members plus me). There house is HUGE (tri-level) and I had even offered to crate him most of the time in my old bedroom which is in the basement. Still the answer is no and I respect that since it's their house... BUT... that means that I'm probably not going to spend Christmas with them because this is Bamm's first Christmas with me and it's important to me that he be a part of it even if he's a dog and doesn't understand what Christmas is all about. I wanted him with me not only just because it's his first Christmas with me, but also because I still need to be able to walk him on potty breaks and I really wanted to show him to my aunt because none of them have ever seen him even though they live 15 minutes down the road. I haven't seen them in probably a year if not longer. They live 15 minutes from me and we never see each other... can you tell how close I am to my family?
Thing is... I don't have a major relationship with hardly anyone in my family. My dog and cat ARE my family...
Anyways... I just know that if I tell them that I'm just going to stay home then they're not going to understand... but it is what it is right? This way I'm respecting their wishes to not have my dog in their home and also still spending my Christmas with Bamm.
