| Hubby and I have been offered a business offer we couldn't refuse. This just happened an hour ago. I'm so excited I doubt I'll get any sleep tonight. I can't go into it right now, however I shall at a later date. Please remember us in your prayers as we are about to travel quite far and I won't be on the pc nearly as much as I have in the past for a few months. I'll be answering email and private messages but won't be posting anywhere near as much till we get settled in. All of you will be in my heart and in my prayers as in my heart all of you are my Medina family. Please everyone take care, stay safe and well. |

| help!!!!!! I do not know what to doooooooooooooooo :( I have an offer of a life time and this is something I can tell my granddaughter and when I am passed on my granddaughter can share with her kids and grandkids about me. I have always wanted to leave something worth talking about behind when I go. However this comes at a price. My kids, my granddaughter. :'( I would be thousands of miles away, I might could fly back once a month or buy those video conference calling phones where you can see who you're talking to (I have seen them for under 1,500 a set. which I would of thought them to of been much much more) Anyway I am so torn, this is an oppertunity of a life time and a chance to help with our future business and also leave a legacy for my granddaughter and maybe a modest inheitience if I use the knowledge from this adventure to better the future and my future business. Lets just say the knowledge and experience one might could consider almost priceless. But there will be no more weekly dinners with the boys and their wives (would have to go to monthly) and there will be no spur of the moment get togethers. No holding my sweet granddaughter in my arms once or twice a week, talking to her, holding her and loving her :'( I am soooooo not sure what to do and my love for my family has me close to just turning my back on it all. hmmmmm what am I going to do :'( Please tell me, if this was your mom would you feel bad her leaving the area? Maybe what I am trying to achieve is nothing they or the granddaughter will want to continue, I see many elderly people build up a ranch or a business only for the ones left behind to sell it immediatly after the person croaks :( I am so torn. Help :( |

| Cara you personally asked for my advice and included details not posted here. In essence you are choosing between a career with dogs or your family. Don't go... family is more important. |
