I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! I had no idea you were a dog person and I can assure you, adopting one will mend many holes in your soul. Mine didn't fix my grief but she sure saved my life through it.
You are so correct on "tomorrow may never come." In the past 3 years this has hit me over and over. Starting of course with my son in 2020. Then two best friends, one in 2021 and the next in 2022. One at 52 years old and one at 45!!! I have NEVER been more aware of tomorrow than I am nowadays.
Thanks so much, Kristi. I've had dogs all my life, and my two forever luv dogs were both Blue Heelers. I am in the hunt- and when I am back from The Big Trip in December I get to put a lot more elbow grease into this. I can't wait.
I can't wait FOR you! I get it though, travel makes it hard. I waited 6 years between dogs because of travel. But I am so settled now it's not even funny lol. My mission is road tripping now, with my dog.
I've known more than a few couples who plan to travel "when I retire". The golden day finally arrives, but he's got Parkinson's, trending to dementia, and she can't walk the length of a grocery store without sitting down. The future is unknowable. Live every day as though it were your last. One day you'll be right!
