Omg The Big Long OMGosh!

New person living in the home, doggies moving out, moving to another city, aaauuuggghhhh! Some stuff is going down in my house!


I just wanted to touch base and say HELLO! I'm not around much anymore I've got alot going, I've been a bit blah with YT, but I'm totally over that and ready to be back! But I have to get over a few hurdles first! lol

I'm moving! Not really cause I'm excited about the idea of packing up my life and loading it up in 100 degree weather and moving it around, but out of pure necessity. I inherited my father recently and I just don't have the room for him here in my current home. We lost my grandmother and he was her caretaker, and she was his, for as long as I can remember. Now that she's gone his siblings sold her home, displacing my father. I'm the "Grown up" of his two children so he becomes my responsibility. NOT THAT I MIND. He's my daddy and I love him! I'm just angry that he was displaced to begin with! Now I need a home that has an additional bedroom for him. He has been staying in my office/guest room for a while and that is NOT working! lol

We are moving a few cities over so not too far a move and my tuba playing daughter will not have to leave her school. Its still a heck of a drive but for the band program, I'll drive her to school every day. She just made marching band so she would kill me if she had to leave! lol

We are choosing between two homes, both with HOA's that are very ridged and have pet restrictions. Not no pets entirely but limiting the number of, forcing me to make some very hard calls.

I thank Heavenly Father for blessing me with a neighbor who loves my babies as much as I do! She flat out told me that I'm not taking Charlie with me, my Labrador. One of the two homes is 2 story and he can't handle stairs. And the other he could do, but she doesn't care, she loves him and that's that! LMAO! It actually works well, Charlie lover her and her children, and I can only take two of my babies with me. So the only question left is....... Who else????

Well I also Thank Heavenly Father for my wonderful Extended Yorkie talk Family! Paris will be staying here on YT and gaining a sister named Chloe! No she is not going to live in Texas with Shana! lol She is staying right here in California! Only an hour and a half away! I am going to join her yorkie meet up group so I can see her often and so Pixie can have play dates with her, Not that Pixie ever played with her... but it will be nice to see them together and pretend.. lol I am really excited about the placement. Brian and I meet Misty and her husband this weekend and they are such a wonderful couple! They are two of the nicest people! And ladies.. Misty is a member of the Lucky Wives Club He's a doll! Sweet as cal be! I see why her Chloe like him so much! lol He's just like my hubby, two peas in a pod they were.... it was too funny!

Anyway.... I'm pretty depressed about everything, angry with my extended family, very hopeful about the things I do have power over, and extremely overwhelmed with responsibility that's been thrust on me right now. ugh! But I can take a deep breath and know that I've found two fine homes and families for my children, and I have somewhere to move my own growing family. As hard as it as appears... it will all be OK... lol

Say a prayer that the move goes well, that my poor father adjusts well to accepting help from his daughter and that Paris and Charlie are nothing but happy in their new homes when they eventually go to them.

Thanks guys!!! And congrats to Chloe on her new sister!!!



P.S.
Please no posts on how I should not move to a place that won't take an excess of 2 dogs, I really am harboring enough guilt and mixed feelings I don't need it. Bottom line, my Father wins. If someone cant understand that... I feel very sorry for their father. I love my babies, it was a tough decision, had the cards not fallen as perfectly as they had, I may not have been able to complete this move at this time, but I would have found a way. God provided for all of us, my babies included, part of that was by leading me to Misty. So please. Don't post to say such things, to do so would just be mean, I've seen it in the past and I honestly couldn't handle it right now.

Sounds like you've had more than your share. Best of luck as you work through all these adjustments.

Thoughts and prayers headed your way.

What a hard thing to have to go through... I'm glad everything is working out well though and you've found new homes for two of your babies... I hope your family and Dad will be happy in your new home...

Bless your heart. I wouldn't come down on you if my life depended on it. Your father is a luck dad. Take good care of yourself right now too. Please.
I want to see you healthy and happy when all of this gets straightened out. Good luck!

Kathryn, sounds like you had some pretty tough decisions to make, but it also looks like things just fell into place! Heavenly Father must have had a hand in it. What a wonderful daughter you are to take such good care of your dad! Here's wishing you much happiness in your new home!

Thanks guys!!! I really do feel like everything is as it should be! And I am really excited about Misty and her family! She was such a treat to meet! She and her hubby were so sweet with Paris. They took pictures of the meeting... I bet is I hint around enough.... ehhh hemmmm, Hint Hint Hint! She'll post pictures of it! lol

I hate the thought of moving and It will be such an adjustment for everyone, missing the babies, new friends, new housemates, and whatnot... But it will all work out for the best!

Kathryn only want to wish you well. You sure are on overload right now but the decisions you have made are for the best of everyone involved it seems.
You know what you have to do and it looks like you did an awsome job.
Your right Dad needs to come first. He must be very proud to have such a
caring daughter. Good luck in your move and stay in touch with us.

oh kathryn i dont know what to say

i want to say im so sorry but then again i wasnt to look at the bright side as sometimes with change new things come about and you learn something and sometimes its for the better, i to wish you could find a more conforatbale house that takes all of you guys in but i do know that there are not always that easy, they are trying to adapt new laws in our town limiting the number of dogs you can even own and cats, they have all ready adapted a mandatory spay and neatur law, and so i mean it has nothing to do with your situation but we all know how it is, i just hope out of this that in the end everyone is happy and everyone works out fine.

you do what you have to and sometimes you have to make a sacrafice, and you seem confident in your choice and you should be. stay positive and stay happy,

and yes you can be mad at your ectended family i would be to. he fathered all of you, not just one of you to take care of hime, he took care of all of you

but aside all that be happy, its a turning point, a changing point, and a learning point.

wishes, hugs, doggy licks from franks, and prayers going to you

wishing you the best.

stephanie

I get the feeling you are a very strong person and will be such a wonderful daughter. He has to know that too. I'm sure this is going to be just another facet in your life that will make you even stronger, wiser and more forgiving. Don't let what the family has done stress you out at all. It isn't worth it. When they see what lengths you have gone thru to care for your dad, they are the ones who will have live with their guilt for the rest of their lives.
You my dear have earned your wings, and I applaud you!!!!

oh boy, it must be soooo hard for you to part with Paris, knowing how much you LOVE her dearly . . . as a mommy, that must be the hardest thing to do, to have to give up one of our very own . . .but sometimes it really is what you need to do to be able to make things work for you DAD. I wish you the best in moving . . . take care

You know.... I feel like the worst Yorkie Mommy in the world for even admitting to this... but its Pixie I would die without. I love Paris and she is a dear but I never did bond with her the way I did with Pixie. So don't get me wrong...while it is still VERY hard for me, I am not devistated and am actually very excited for Misty!

My husband actually tried to convince me that we should let Pixie go on account of her barking and demanding ways! lmao! No way! Nobody else could put up with her! lol Just ask Jen... she'll tell you that Pixie takes some serious patience! And earplugs! lol And Hubby has Bonded with Chynna to the point where I really had no say in that dept. She is his dog and thats that. If it were up to him we would have Chynna and Paris... lol

You are going through so much, and handling it with such grace. What a wonderful daughter, mom, and pet owner you are for knowing what is best for your entire family. God bless you during this tumultuous time.
