Well it looks like my hubby will be flying back to Louisiana on the day after Christmas. He will return on that Thursday which is the same day they are coming to pack up our stuff. What sucks about this is that he will only be "of use" there(Louisiana) for 2 of those days as he will spend the other two days in airports etc.
Wanna know what else sucks? While he is gone I will have to take care of all the moving issues here. I'll have to take them to the storage unit and wait with my children while they clear it out as well. I really know I shouldn't complain. It's just that I got stuck with ALL the moving issues when we came to NM as well. They sent CCB to Albuquerque for 3 weeks while I was left behind to pack up our home while taking care of a 6 month old. That was not an easy task. I just think that they should be a little more considerate of his family and all the issues that come up while we make this transition.
All this stuff has really brought me to the realization that I am not the same woman I was when I got married. I used to be very bold as far as "taking care of business" is concerned. Now I feel very timid and I would prefer that my husband handle all this sort of stuff. I don't know when it happened. It has probably occurred slowly over time I suppose. I think the only way I'm gonna get that confident woman back is to find something of "my own" to do. Maybe a class of some sort or a club or something. Let's hope that Denham Springs Louisiana has something for me. I really don't like the timid me, I prefer the "go gettem" me.
"Holy Oprah moment, Batman!" Where did that come from? Ahem.....Anywho......
On a related note.(To the first paragraphs that is.) The mortgage man called and the loan process is underway! I hope that everything will be taken care of by January 16. That is when my Real Estate agent estimated. I don't want to spend any more time than I have to shacked up in a hotel room. Which will be our temporary home until we close on the house.

I despise moving. Having done it 6 times now I envy your hubby. It would be nice to just go away and come back to a different house without any of the aggravation.
You did take care of all the house moving things. And with a baby to take care of at the same time.
Woohoo to you.
It will be so nice for you and your family to get into that new house..
Yuck, you have to take care of everything yourself?! Not fun!!! Well, good luck. I hope you have a very smooth transition!
Okay. Will stay in New Mexico for ever! After all the new one is cleaner then the old one!
I remember when that happened to me once and I had to get out there and let the world know "I am woman, hear me roar!!" Now I have buried that timid me, so go get 'em girl!!
We want the strong confident OGO to survive...& you will.
Good luck with it all.
Definitely do something for yourself, and pick it out yourself. Don't let anyone else influence you, ok? I know what it is like to get so caught up in the family or marriage that the "you" starts to disappear. Oh, and it is easy to blame our "other" in these situations, when we are the ones who created it. I am glad you have caught this in time. Good luck with your move and your time!
