found another home for my dogs

Another one of my babies is going to a new home today. This is tearing me up inside. I am glad that she is going to a loving home though. I cant take care of her anymore. I am so emotionally spent. I can barely take care of my children.

I woke up today without crying. That was an accomplishment for me. I kept string until a few minutes ago and then I started crying again. This has been a nightmare. I know I will get through it. I just have to keep myself going. I am going to allow myself today to just cry and rest. Today there isnt any government offices open for me to call. Tomorrow I have to get my emotions into gear and get calls made. I need progress. My children are relying on me to either fix this or find another home. I can do this but not today. : (

God,

Please give me the strength and wisdom that I need to do what has to be done for my family. Please help me to keep our loving family together.  

Amen

Christine, get some rest today, and resolve to start making those phone calls tomorrow! I know you can do this!

That's good Christine.  Just take it easy today...maybe you can find a movie or something funny on TV to watch.  We all need to be thankful that we're not living down where the hurricane is coming thru.  If you look around...there's always someone with worse problems than we have.  "Thank you God for what you're going to do for Christine and her family."      Linda in Washington state

Oh, I'm sorry now to read this update AFTER I'd inquired about the one dog.

Sometimes, being responsible means recognizing when you need to find another home.  I'm sorry.  I hope that they can keep in touch w/ you, and perhaps you'll see these dogs again sometime.

One day at a time.

I pray you have enough time, and that things work out for you and your family.  Threat of losing ones home is very stressful and scary.
