I sense you're getting more and more adept at woodworking. It looks aesthetically pleasing. It'll come in handy. Privacy is important, of course.
I've never had a pet other than a cow or chicken. I'm fond of dogs; they're quite loyal. I need to meet certain requirements to have a dog. A house with a garden. A house where I live alone. Not everyone wants to live in a house with a pet.
I think I am getting better or at least, more confident. Which might be dangerous.
I have got used to the life of a pet inside now, and with small dogs it is easy. Allergies can play a role of course, but a loved pet does make for a better home.
