Soothing therapy

All weekend I was bothered by a particular issue and was unable to sleep very well. Last night I woke up at 4:30am pretty upset by this issue and thought about it until 6:30 am. At this time, I decided, all I need is a little affection from my puppy to help my stress. He was pretty unhappy that I woke him up so early (tit for tat) but eventually he snuggled up to me and chewed on his hoof in my lap. After 10 minutes, I went back to my bed and was able to fall asleep (granted, only for 40 minutes, but it was better than nothing). Sometimes all you need to put things into perspective is a little puppy snuggled up against you to let you know that things can't be that bad.
