On the move

    Yay we have found a house in Scotland:D We will be in it in time for xmas. Really looking forward to moving back to my home country but will miss hubby as he still has 3 years left so will be living in the mess married unaccompanied:( It will be very strange being back on civvie street but good at the same time. As much as I like it here in Ireland it will be nice not having to worry about where you can and can't go and also say when people ask what your husband does:rolleyes:

    Glad you are on your way home..Sorry about the years apart from your husband still, that must be tough..I long for my husband to come home every day..when 5:30 pm rolls around, I can not envision how it is to be apart for longer times..
    Do you have family in the town/city that you are moving to?

    Yes my parents and brother live there and I also still have lots of friends there so not too bad really. We had not actually planned on buying a house for another couple of years, but as the house prices are starting to rise again we thought we were better doing it now.

    That's lovely news Jenny. You'll be glad to be on home turf again. Shame your hubby has to stay back though, still i'm sure the 3 years will fly by as they do.

    Yes really looking forward to it and I'm sure the next 3 years will fly by, I don't know where this year has gone:eek: Will be nice to be able to go to some open shows for a change, it's been years since I went to one.

    @JENGOSMonkey I WAS THERE FOR '89! I was a kid, but I remember the water coming out of the swimming pool in huge waves and everything falling from the shelves! I was actually born in San Jose, but moved around a lot later LOL I hear the wildfires are more of a concern for you guys now? That's scarier than quakes for me...

    I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

    @Kembe, nice post! We've gone to solid food chopped up in a food processor, but we're grinding it a bit more course as we go. So far, no puppies are choking, but good to know!

    Oh man..Westchester is pricey :( I work in Manhattan & live in NJ. Could you possibly find something in NJ?? Or perhaps a place over the Tappan Zee Bridge which is Rockland County or Orange County which both are still in NY except on the other side of the Hudson River. Prices are usually better in this area. You can send me a PM if you'd like to chat more!
