The Proposal.....

It was any other Tuesday…….turn my alarm off in the morning and skip the gym because waking up at 5 am sucks and I was being lazy. Go to work. Got a call from my cousin in the afternoon because she was in Austin. Go to gym. Go home. Cousin comes over for a little over an hour afterwards. Shower. Sit in bed and attempt to study. It was about 9:45 and I hadn’t done a lick of studying that evening and I have the BEC (Business Environments & Concepts) section of the CPA exam on Saturday at 8 am. I’ve already failed this section once (72 and I needed a 75) so I know how much I really need to study. I get distracted easily so I went in the bedroom and sat in bed while Brandon watched TV for a bit but he decided to come sit in the room with me since he wasn’t really doing anything except for playing games on his phone. We decided the dogs would sleep in the room but in their own beds. Brandon brushed his teeth and climbed into bed but since it was still early, we just left the lights on because we weren’t actually ready to go to bed yet. We have been trying to keep the bathroom door shut at all times because the dogs are really bad about taking everything out of trashcan and leaving a trail of trash all over the house. I looked up and saw the door open and nagged him for leaving it open. Since he just got into bed, he asked me if I would go close it. “Fine! Even though I’m the one that needs to study.” I go in there, turn on the lights because Guns is still in there and, of course, I thought he had gotten in the trash because there was something on him. He was just standing there, wagging his little innocent tail, letting me know he could do no wrong and that’s when I saw it……the ring and card tied around his neck. The note was made out like it was from Guns telling me how much daddy loves me and wants me to say yes and marry him and spend the rest of my life with him. It also said, “PS – Colt and I really like him so we think you should say yes!” Too freakin cute! Of course, when I first spotted the ring, I was like, what the hell is going on here……very much a surprise. I mean, I knew it was coming but I didn’t expect this soon. I was thinking in the next 3 months or so. And I would have never expected on a random Tuesday evening which made it all the better. I had no say in my ring and I absolutely love it! I love that he picked it out all by himself and that made it even more of a surprise. He has asked me what I like but for the most part, I like anything. There are only 2 things I don’t like and I told him what those were and he took good note and went from there. Anyhow…he intended on proposing earlier in the evening but couldn’t since my cousin came over (no wonder he kept asking me what I was going to end up doing that evening once I told him she was coming over). He had also tried practicing with Guns when he got home from work so he would run up to me when I sat down or something but once it was tied around his neck, he was not moving. So when Guns had it around his neck in the bathroom, and Brandon came to sit down in bed, he knew Guns wasn’t going anywhere and he knew I would complain about the door being open. It was so cute though too because normally Guns is all slouchy when something is on him and he was just standing there wagging his tail and panting (so it looked like he was smiling). It’s like he knew he was in on the surprise. It was perfect! Of course I said yes after running back in the bedroom and tackling him.
