Grrrrrrrrr!!!!!

Seems like a hard morning today... some days are like that. My blood sugar must be high. Hate feeling out of whack. Should get busy. Maybe exercise will help. I was doing ok till the dog started barking at every little thing. He has the most awful piercing bark that strikes me right in the gut and the head. At times like this I wish I didn't have a dog. I simply cannot stand that particular level of noise. I wonder how to teach him he does NOT need to bark at every single movement. If a car goes down the road, he barks. If someone four doors down goes out to get their mail he barks. If someone walks down the road or rides a bicycle down the road he barks. I'm afraid if I can't figure out how to stop that one of us is going to have to go. I hate caging him up too much. I don't want to lock him in the back room or anything, but I do know something needs to change. Can't have him barking like that. Don't want to and won't. It's simply not peaceful.
