My friend, Andie, wondered aloud how long I could last, taking care of Snoopy around the clock without much help from others in the household. Keeping a pet is, should be, a shared responsibility but not here in my household. Well, I have taken care of Dino and Snoopy almost single-handedly and it doesn't look like things are going to change now.
Sometimes I feel so tired, I feel as if I am going to collapse. Of course, if I do collapse, I wonder who is going to care for Snoopy so I steel myself. I can't let anything happen to me and in the process to him.
And then there are times I get so short tempered for lack of sleep and feeling torn between caring for Snoopy and having some personal time to do my work that I spew profanity and feel like giving Snoopy a big slap across his face because he is giving me such a hard time and feeling the pressure of trying to earn enough for the month despite the lack of time or attention to support Snoopy's medical bills, special diet and other expenses.
I can't help but wonder when all these will end. I hope that by then, my parents do not give me other problems due to their own poor health. Arghh I hate this, man!
