Did you all think I fell off the face of the earth? Well I kinda did! Life has been so crazy lately. As a matter of fact, I lost my brain about the first of Sept. and I am not sure I have recovered all the pieces as of yet.
As you may recall we received orders to move to Hawaii 6 months sooner than expected. Well all of our belongings are on their way over there. The packers came one day (and no not GreenBay), then they loaded our things into crates on a truck the next. Having people come into our home and wrap and pack everything--even the trash if you are not careful-- was a new experience for me. My Hubby and I have moved around quite a bit in our 13 years of marriage, 10 times to be exact, we have always done the packing and the loading and drive the Uhaul ourselves. So to watch others do it for us was quite nice, once I got past all the stress of three men coming into our home and touching everything we own! After 8 hours of packing and 10 hours of loading, I watched the truck drive away it became more real that I was leaving and may not see my dear friends again. So a few tears fell, ok lots of them, but my love and respect for them will not. Although, as I was hugging my dearest friend good-bye, she actually told me to get out! Of course that was through her tear stained face as well. The great thing is that she called me about 5 hours after I left to make sure we got to my moms alright--but I think she just missed me!!
So that brings me to the next exciting adventure this month, at the age of 33 I have now moved back in with my mother, bringing my three children and the dog! It has only been a week today, I am just praying that God grants me grace and her mercy for the next 3 months! I love my mother dearly and we will be fine, it's just she is used to living by herself and my children do not really have quiet voices!
And finally in this continuing soga, I became a single parent today. I drove my hubby to the airport this morning (bright and early, which I don't do bright and early well). The way our world is today, only passangers can go to the gates, but since he is in the military and going to be stationed away from me, they gave me a pass to sit at the gate till his plane left! God is Good! That gave me another hour plus with him. The drive home was long and quite--the children were with grandma. I am praying for a speedy 3 months. As soon as I walked back in the house DoodleBug wants to know were daddy is (he's three).
Well my next entry will be up lifting and less dramatic, I hope! Until then, thanks for listening!
