Life was pretty good, if you ignored the constant worry about Roger’s health. But everything changed when Linda moved in next door.
Linda. Just thinking about her makes my blood boil. She moved in with her golden retriever, Max, and from day one, we never saw eye to eye.
It wasn’t anything major at first, just little things like her loud music or the way she’d let Max wander wherever he pleased. But one sunny afternoon, things took a turn for the worse.
I was in my backyard, pruning my roses, when Max came trotting over, wagging his tail like he owned the place. Sweet dog, really, but curious. He sniffed around and before I knew it, he let out a yelp.
Poor thing had gotten a tiny thorn in his paw. I knelt, soothed him, and gently removed the thorn. Max licked my hand, and I gave him a pat on the head.
