Duchess did something so loving

[yavenay]

I am going through an emotional time. I am in the process of selling a house that I love. The reasons I am selling a home that I love is so that I can retire early. I have the opportunity to purchase a new home for cash........in other words no mortgage. I am so emotionally attached to my home. I lived here for almost 14 years.

Well I am going through seller's remorse. I love this house and except for the chance to retire at 55 instead of 65, there is no need for me to sell it. I like the house I am buying but I don't like the location as much as I love where I live now.

Anyway with closing only a few hours away, I broke down crying because I feel like I am making a huge mistake. While I am laying in a little ball on the bed, my baby tried her best to console me, she was licking my tears and would not leave me alone until I stopped crying. I love this little stinker so freakin much. Duchess is not an overly affection yorkie. She knew her mamma was having an emotional break down.

I have stopped crying but I have to work through my seller's remorse. I am legally obligated to go through with the sell. I hope my feelings change once I am in the new house.......the one thing I am trying to focus on is being mortgage free.......that's the one good thing about all of this

That is so sweet what your little Duchess did when trying to console her mama. My Joey does that sometimes when he sees I am upset for whatever reason. Just trying to comfort us the best they know how.
I hope things work out for the best for you with the decision you made after all. Buyer's remorse is the pits. Wondering if you made the right choice. I have had it often but not as big as the one you are enduring. But no mortgage is quite a big consolation I hope it will make all better for you.

Letting go of the house so you can enjoy free time and more time with darling Duchess--I think you made the right call. I can only imagine how overwhelming selling, buying, and moving must be...And I admire your courage to make these tough decisions and carry through with them; you are a strong, determined person, even though you're feeling anything but right now. Your little girl was helping you cope and reminding you that together, you and Duchess will be okay, not matter what! I believe once settled in your new home, everyday will remind you of why you decided to sell your much-loved home to continue with an even better lifestyle. All the best to you and give that sweet, sensitive little Duchess (who loves you soooo) a little smooch.

Home is where the heart and the yorkie are !!

If people were as empathetic as yorkies are, the world would be a far, far better place.

Thanks everyone. I know deep dpwn inside I am making the right decision. I just underestimated the emotional value. I know I will eventually get over it.

Duchess really surprised me. She's not the most affectionate yorkie. It feels so good knowing we are both in tuned to each other's feelings. I took her to the new house yesterday and she happily christened it for me .....oye vey.......potty training all over again.....I hope this time around she catches on much quicker.

Just ONE of the benefits of having a Yorkie. Even the most plucky, busybody, stand-offish, bold little terrier who seems too busy running the world to have much interest in mushy cuddles instinctively knows when to administer a big dose of TLC. They never miss a thing.
