I'm overwhelmed right now. Actually Dash is too and based on N's grades this quarter, I think she might be also. Most of you already know, but for those that don't--we're moving.
Dash was downsized the same week that golden confirmed with me when she would be getting to stay at home with NJ. Since then we did a lot of thinking and talking. My parents made us an offer, if we move to Indiana there's a house on their property that they will remodel and once it's done we can move into it. We haven't worked out all the details, but in addition to having a place out in the country, my dad also wants to discuss some business ideas with me.
I think we are so overwhelmed right now with everything that we are trying to tie up here and we have so much stuff to do both here and there. It's weird to be settled here so much and trying to "unsettle" is not as easy as it has been for us in the past. Similar to BB and Wah Wah, when you have a good deal present itself--it's difficult to pass that up and you have to trust that the rest will come together. So that's what we're trying to do! There are moments of excitement but I think we still have so much work to do that the real excitement will come closer to the move. Dash is going to go out the first part of June to get us a place to live and I will stay here with the kids and then at the end of June is when we will be moving.
Getting moved and finding work this next year and working on the house is going to be a big deal. It's a lot to take on, but the end result has us close to my family again and the kids get to grow up on a farm riding horses and four wheelers and hopefully eventually raising cattle too! So there are definite advantages. We're just trying to plan things out while taking it one day at a time!

It sounds exciting and hectic at the same time. We're going to miss you when you leave!
I certainly know what you are going through. The next few monthes are going to be crazy, but hopefully you will have settled in a few months after you get there. It helps to have family in the area.
It is overwhelming when you think about everything in the long term. Take it one day at a time.
T, I can totally relate. Moving across the country was extremely stressful, expensive and rocky on our marriage at times. It's taken a while for us to adapt to life in Oregon. I am starting to miss my family a lot now that I've been gone for a while. I will be praying for you, that the Lord would bring everything together.
Whoa! So the rumor I heard was true! What a huge change. Hope everything sorts out ultimately. Yes, the busy-ness out paces the excitement for a lot of the preparation. I think it was only the last couple weeks I could get excited before that I was just too overwhelmed.
