I do want to comment that I am with Bea about the animals. What I am seeing is that this venture is robbing you of your own vitality and health. It is a drain on your emotions, physical well-being, and social activities.
We all know that this is a decision that you don't and won't take lightly. However, I do ask you: Who's looking out for #1?? GUBU isn't a reliable guy and you may not be able to depend on him for a while while he's on Planet Zog to borrow from Bea.
I am concerned for you and your overall well-being. As you said previously, this isn't sustainable. You are a young woman in her 50's and I would hate to see you become a shell of the person that you are now in 5 years down the road.
As Bea said, there are other rescue centers that would gladly take on your animals. Then you'll have free time to finish up house projects, enjoy time with friends, and perhaps take on a job that will bring you some income.
I think this whole operation is a drain on both of you and GUBU.
What are your thoughts? You do not have to decide now. But I believe this is a conversation that you need to have with yourself and possibly with GUBU down the road.
