FINALLY, people who sound like me!! Here I thought I was nuts. LOL!
I hate to go anywhere if I cannot take my dogs. Flying anywhere once a year is a source of panic for me, luckily I have a friend who takes my dog when we go somewhere like that. But now I have two. I hope she'll still be ok with it. We had to cancel our vacation this year, and I was sad.. but that small part of me (the dog lover!) was glad because... Woo hooo.... I can stay home with the dogs!
(Don't tell my husband I just said that! He thinks I'm 100% as miserable as him we had to cancel our vacation.)
