I have a really big problem with Yorkie Talk

[Kodak]

No one would believe I am on here this much, I woke up at 3am and got on here this morning. lol

We have dial up and I get mad when anyone wants to use the phone!!!!

DH walks in the room and says "You on there.....AGAIN!"

[tmatherly]

Very clever hook...I was like "problem with yorkie talk????" Seems we all have the same problem. I actually did take an involunary hiatus for about 2 months, came back and there's all new people...except for V, of course!

BTW, I'm diggin' most of the new people!!

Well, I for one want to thank Yorkie Talk for saving my life. I just lost my very special friend, way to early in her life. We had talk on the phone everyday at least for ten years. She had an up, down, family that were quite selfish. She was only 38 and I am 60 but we got along so well(She was a very sincere animal lover) Showing how her family was, I talked to her one day she said she didnt feel good and I told her go to bed and call me when you feel better. One week later I read her obit. in paper. I was lost. My phone didnt ring and I would dial half her number before I remembered. I have been looking for a second yorkie for awhile and in my search found this sight. I was always a day late not gettin on here everyday. So it started,everyday, twice a day, three times now if I dont have yorkie talk right there I am afraid I will miss a new home found(Day Late) or an exciting Yorkie Railroad(Little Gwen). Or even better is when someone tries to scam a YT. I remeber just the other day I saw someone called one of you ladys a Liar. OOOPPPSSSS. I knew the fight was on. I just knew there were still nice people around and I found them here on Yorkie Talk and am Honored to know you all. Yorkie Lovers Rock!!!!

Syl, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. She died way too young. I am addicted to YorkieTalk also Someone else mentioned they had Dial Up for the internet, so did I and realized that if I wanted to get on YorkieTalk at home, I'd better get DSL so I don't tie up the phone. I now have DSL and YorkieTalk whenever I want it. YEAH!!!!!

So sorry for the loss of your dear friend, especially so early in life. How nice that YT is here for all who need. I came thinking I only needed to learn and that I am, but also finding so many great folks I would not have "met" otherwise! There is something special about being about to share with other Yorkie-lovers!

I just want to say, I too lost a dear one and yorkie talk has helped me so much. I don't post so much, but if I couldn't get on here at times and get my mind off my darling niece who died just last March 11th at 17 years old I don't know what I would have done. You people are fantastic. Sorry for the sadness, but just had to share. YT helps us in so many ways.

I just figured out that I can be on my work laptop and this laptop @ the sametime!!! So now I can watch for some great posts while I work.... Well I think that helps my addiction!

Welcome to the club!

I have to ask you....are your Yorkie's eyes really that color or did you enhance the photo?

I used to be able to get a lot done in a day. It seems that lately, I am at this computer far too much. Why? you might ask, and I would reply....it's all because of Yorkie Talk!

Laundry gets done very slowly. Floors aren't swept daily anymore. I can't remember the last time I took the garbage out....just kidding...I have one waiting to go out now (and here I am, on YT instead).

If any of you have any suggestions on how I can curb this abberant behavior, please tell me. I just don't know what to do. I need your help.

All that work will be there waiting for you I use to be a house cleaning addict, things had to be just so, so. I learned quickly after I had to take on doing everything around home, Jack isn't able to help me due to the Parkinsons, I now take more time out and come visit here at YT as often as I can. Great, great people here and one doesn't ever feel like a stranger. This is the most wonderful group of folks, a real yorkie family. We found Yorkie Talk after the loss of our yorkie Cassie, so many of our friends couldn't understand the loss we felt but those here really helped us so much through the grieving process we had to endure, YT really is a God-send.

Syl, I am so sorry about your friend, I know how difficult that is. I lost a very dear friend that lived next to us many years ago, one friday morning I was helping her plan a family reunion to be at there home that following Sunday (only two days later) then on the saturday morning her husband was ringing our door bell asking me to help, she was in bed and had passed in her sleep. I was the only one that knew who was doing all the food preperations for the reunion. It was so difficult living there after that, and was happy when we finally did move. Life is so precious and those we love are so dear, we can only be thankful for the time that the Lord gives us to each other in this life and treasure our wonderful memories.

Where else can you find so much information and hear so many stories from people who have yorkies? My family doest understand my love and passion I have for my dogs so this is the place where people feel the same as I do and I dont feel like such a freak when I talk about my dogs all of the time. I am not sure if it is an addiction or a way to prove to myself than I am not the only one that is obsessed with my yorkies.
