Blogging Bweaks

Dawling fwiends

You, (I hope) have maybe noticed that I have been not blogging vewy much lately

Well, it's all the fault of the giant MOVE

I, of couwse am an immense help in this endeavow


YES, IT's awficial!!! we awe moving EAST.., all the way to the othew side of the big Pee , and then some

Budapest hewe we come

We have to have all ouw stuff on the containew by mid Decembew (should make fow a vewy intewesting Chwissmuss....NOT!)

and we have to leave ouw NEW YAWK apawtment by Janooawy fifteenth

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, cuwwently , we awe packing, twying to sign cotwacts, having vawioos ovewsee moving companies coming and measoowing stuff and giving estimates  (believe me , you don't even want to know the amounts of tweat this will cost me), and figoowe out what to take and what to sell
(Mommi might post some of the paintings that she wants to sell at half pwice , if any of you awe intewested)

it's ,scaiwy, exciting, happy and sad all at once

My pinkies have lived in this apawtment fow 28 yeaws and all of you know how cwaxzy in love wif NewYAwk they awe, BUT  sometimes life makes plans of it's own,  and  it's time fow a new adventoowe
so we awe looking at the bwight side and getting weady fow all the new discovewies and life we wil have

We will be in an empty apawtment(xept fow a bowwowed blow up bed hewe fow a momf aftew ouw stuff leaves, and then we will be in Budapest fow anothew two ow fouw weeks wif the same baweness untill ouw stuff swims ovew

I will twy to look at the blogs and post when I can, but it will be vewy infwequent

I hope when we finally suwface fwom ouw new home, You'll all wemembew me

In the meantime PLEASE STAY HEALTHY AND HAPPY AND WUN AND PLAY AND LOVE EACH OTHEW and HAVE THE HAPPIEST THANKSGIVING!!!

I will always be gwateful fow all of you and this community of fwiends

Wow Asta! You are moving to our side of the Pond? That is so exciting!

We wish you a smooth move although #1, who did 2 trans-continental moves in 3 years, knows the extent to which packing is a nightmare.

Hi Asta, did your peeps get the apartment that they wanted and saw??? How exciting, such a beautiful place! It's going to be funny living in an apartment that is sooo empty.... lots of reason to go out for dinners, lunches and breakfasts my mum says!

What an adventure!

We won't ever forget you girl!

Tail Wuggles, Rubie

SweetieAstaRooni!

Of course, I am devastated that you are leaving me. But I think trips to visit you and Mommi and Daddi can be arranged. But I will never become estranged. Or I shall certainly be deranged.

I loves you. Keep us posted about the paintings and other stuff that Mommi puts on ebay? Pawsonally, I would love to purchase an owange blanket that smells like YOU!

hey Asta, this is going to be very exciting and different for you, but your mommi and daddi will help you to adjust. we have enjoyed knowing you for several years now and we are NOT going to forget about you when you are on the other side of the big pee. we're just sad that you aren't coming to live with us, but we understand. we wouldn't want to torment your nice family with all of our insanity. we know how much work moving is and we totally understand that you have to have other priorities for a while. we will keep you in our thoughts and when you land on the other side of the big pee, we will be very excited to hear all about your adventures.

Well I bet everyone who is moving now wishes that they had an Asta to help them pack up. Oh you must all be so busy, and of course I will not forget you during your blogging break. But I am so excited about the prospect of reading all about your adventures in Hungary, once you have settled down. I have been asking Gail if she could perhaps look up the train timetable to Budapest/
Toodle pip!

PS Gail and I want to thank you hugely for taking the time to stop by my blog and wish Human Grandad a Happy 90th Birthday. We all had a lovely day together.

STELLA and RORY from Down Under said...

Oh Miss Asta, what a marvellous adventure you are having. Don't get too worn out with all the packing. Make sure you and your dear mum and dad have plenty of breaks. Make them take you for some walks to relax everyone. Doesn't matter where we live everyone is still the best of friends aren't they? No worries (especially for your move) and love, Stella and Rory

Roo said...

Asta how exciting! You found your home in Budapest and are officially moving there! Wow! Luv the photo of you in the library with boxes by the way. Gave me a BIG smiley :D

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! If we don't see you, know we'll be thinking of you! :D

Hugs and Wags,

Martha said...

Hello Asta, we are very excited about your news. Just think of all the new sniffs there will be in Hungary...........all the new doggie friends you have yet to meet.
We are so thankful that you are there to help the humans - they are not so good at organising!
We also have a move afoot and we cannot believe how sentimental these humans are.............!!!!
They don't always embrace change like us Asta so you must give them lots of cuddles and kisses.
We so look forward to hearing from you in your new home and tell those humans to remember 'Home is where the dog is'.
Much love to you all
Martha, Bailey & Mum xxxxxxx

Angel Ginger Jasper said...

Darliing Asta and mum and dad. You have much to do and yes sadness and happiness. You will feel such a wrench leaving New York and your lovely appartment but you have a lovely new appartment and a new life beckoning you. You are so right that life has its own way of throwing up new things. I think you have such a tight happy family that you will indeed be happy and prosper. Forget you... Never... you are a friend and we dont forget those. You will also be nearer to us and we could come see you when settled.We love you and will be in touch.. Hugs GJ xx
