Should've Known

August 3rd, 2010 at 03:07 am

Picked up mom and stepdad from the airport today. They've been gone the past 12 days to Canada and Alaska.

Long and short of it is that my mom decided during the trip that it is 100% finale over. She had already made arrangements for an apartment before leaving "in case" that was her final decision.

So ... this time we now have Buddy. She left it up to me on whether he'd stay with me until I left, then go to her, or have her go ahead and take him with her. I opted to let her go ahead and take him now. I think it probably is best for him. A year from now would be even worse. She has a "friend" who is nearby the apartment who works from home and will keep Buddy while Mom out and about tutoring, unless she can take him with her.

Maybe its better this way. It would really have been much harder to say goodbye to him a year from now.

    Do I understand your mom is getting divorced? I am sorry, it is not easy at any age for the children (I was 22 when my parents split).

    I gave my daughter's dog back to her after 2+ years while she was finishing her internship living in an apartment. It was very hard, but I knew Lola belonged with OD.

    Thank you. Yes, my mom is getting divorced. Everything was done before they went on the trip - my mom was giving it another chance. Today is their 4 year anniversery.
