FaithManor Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I thought we had another couple of weeks before they would be ready and so I guess I hadn't really prepped myself very well. It had to be done. Things were not going well at the boarding facility and we couldn't afford another one because the others are much, much higher priced. I haven't been able to work with her enough to complete her training, so this seems to be for the best. But, still.....I'm a grown woman sitting here knowing that logically this is how it must work out and yet, I can't stop crying. Dh, who is normally pretty tuned into my emotions, is not being very sensitive. He's happy we won't have her room and board coming out of our budget and that I won't be a stable hand at that farm anymore. So, he's humming a tune and practically dancing a jig. I know he doesn't mean to be hurtful so I'm hiding in the bedroom right now. It's just a cr*ppy day. That's all. I'll be better tomorrow.

Denise in Florida Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 :grouphug::grouphug: It is okay and normal to greive. Let yourself feel what you feel. We gave away a horse this year, she went somewhere great and she was too small for my dd to ride so it was necessary to find a new home. Dd and I both cried anyway.

livingnlearning Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 It's hard to let them go! I've been terribly upset when we've sold any of ours, even when I know it's for the best. If it's any consolation I usually feel better when it's all done and not hanging over me. When it's all done would be a better time to appreciate not having the extra expense and work. Maybe slip DH a note and let him know that! My DH would be the same way and occasionally finds himself the target of an emotional overflow. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithManor Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 Thanks everyone! I'm leaving in just a few minutes to take her for a walk, calm her down, and trailer her. So, any quick prayers, good thoughts, positive vibes, that goes well and I can de-stress so she won't sense my anxiety would be greatly appreciated.

Liz CA Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I can understand very well the pain of losing something dear to you. I lost two dear animals this year and am very bruised still. At least she will live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
