I was thinking about starting a thread about how having a dog has changed your attitude... I don't know that I've given up much, but life sure feels different!
- I spend a lot more time outside, which I love.
- I get more exercise.
- I eat better and run more errands on foot.
- I'm much more blase about dirt, pee, and other things dogs tend to attract / produce.
- I drive more carefully, because I don't want to freak Thor out!
- I've realized that parks are for dogs, not people.
- I get to see what pure joy looks like every day. I never thought I could be so happy to see Thor's little tongue hanging out of his mouth, or his little tail sticking straight up as he chews a flossie into oblivion. |
