Today was one of the hardest days I’ve had in a long time. I finally found the strength to call the vet and book an appointment for Cola, my sweet poodle 😞 I’ve been holding onto hope and trying to delay this decision, but deep down I know it’s time.
There have been so many changes all at once. The other three girls will be heading to their new home on Tuesday — I’m so grateful to Su Zy for helping arrange this. The chickens will also be leaving, either today or tomorrow, to start their next chapter.
The shop is now completely cleared. My heartfelt thanks to Tommy, Amenda, and Suzy for standing by me and helping through it all. Letting go after 20 years has not been easy. As I packed everything away, so many memories surfaced — moments, people, and a lifetime of experiences tied to that place.
Right now, my heart feels heavy saying goodbye to so much at once — to a place, to a chapter of life, and to everything I’ve built here in the UK. But I believe this isn’t a final goodbye, just a “see you again.”
Sometimes we have to let go, no matter how painful, to make space for something new. I’m holding onto the hope that this ending will lead to a new beginning — one that will be just as meaningful, if not more ❤️
