As above do what you want. I miss my dog everyday, so I will say got for it.
Congratulations on your new promotion. You really sound in a good place and I'm so proud of you.

One thing I'm struggling is how can you not eat cheese? :-)
I come from a region in France where we have a lot of cheese. I'd die if I had to stop eating it! Over my dead body is what I would say! Hahahaha :-).
