We've thought for a short time that there would be a possibility of us moving to our companies next location, but it's just been a thought. We've recently found out it's real, we're moving to BARBADOS!!!! Not until early next year, but hey, that's only about 3 months away. Darin wanted eventually to be in one of a few places and get settled in for a few years and open a few shops on one island. Barbados was his first choice, so you could imagine he's beyond excited. Not only is he awesome at opening new shops and great at running them, he'll also get to surf on his days off....lets be honest, he'll be in the water at 6am and right after work everyday of the week. I'm sure the ocean will see more of him then I will. If there's one thing Darin can get up for before dawn for, it's surfing. We're so excited to be moving there, can't wait to experience another island and it's culture. Our life is pretty amazing and I feel so lucky to be living it with my best friend. On another note, we'll be further away from our friends and family. Darin comes back a few times a year now, but I on the other hand come back about every other month. We won't be able to come and go so freely and have a this great hour flight to Orlando. We're hopefully making a trip home in December for the holidays, to see our family and friends since it will be a while until we'll be able to come back. Start planning your trips accordingly to visit the Doty's.
On another sad note.....we can not bring Remie (our dog) with us. I've researched and called places to find out all the laws and rules and printed out paperwork and everything, only to find out she can't come. The only way she can is if she goes to the US for 6 or 7 months, then we have to ship her to the UK and if she meets all the requirements she doesn't have to be quarantined and can fly to Barbados. I have to do paper work to get her to the states, find someone to keep her, get paper work (which is crazy) to go to the UK, and then have to find a vet there to sign off on a health certificate and fill out the paper work, wait till it's approved, then she can fly to Barbados. The flights alone will be thousands of dollars for me and for her, it's just a big mess. This totally sucks, Darin and I are so in love with her and knowing our days are numbered really break our hearts. We rescued her promising to give her the best home, she won't understand and it's not her fault and that's what upsets me the most.
Thank God for my brother who is going to keep her until we know about the UK rule change on Jan 1st, (just found out about this since i've started writing this post) about the quarantine and regulation changes and then we'll know if we can bring her easily to Barbados or she'll have to stay, in which case I hope Craig falls in love with her so she can stay with him and have a good home there. If not, we'll find her another good home in Orlando somewhere.....but i'm keeping my fingers crossed for team Craig!
