Changes

Hello everyone! Sorry its been so long since I last posted, I'll try to get better about that. So much has happened since then. I'm taking a semester off school, moving to California, and Mr. B isn't deploying yet. Okay let me start from the top and explain. I'm taking a semester off but will either be transferring to a school out here in California or if that's not possible I will be finishing my degree when we get back to Texas, but I will be finishing my degree. Since Mr. B is not deploying and I won't be in school we made the decision that I will be moving out to California sooner then our original plan, which is a-okay with me! We've found an apartment, and sign the contract on it this week. Mr. B will be moving in to it on Saturday. I'm going home to pack and wait until Mr. B can get leave and come get me and our stuff. Then we head west! Now for the last major change in our lives, Mr.B not deploying. Mr.B has a problem that causes his shoulder to twitch, there is no rhyme or reason to it and he never knows when it will happen or how hard it will be. They're currently trying to find the cause of this and because of that he is non-deployable. We could use lots of prayers please.

My emotions are all over the place with everything that is going on. I'm very excited to be moving to Cali to live with the hubby after a year apart with only a few days together every now and then. I'm also scared, nervous and a little bit sad. I'm scared because I've never lived anywhere but Texas, heck I've lived in the same house my entire life! I'm nervous because this is a cross country move and the drive kind of worries me. Also we will be starting a brand new life. We don't know very many people out here, I have to find a job and its our first time living together. I'm sad because of those I will be leaving behind, I know its not permanent but its still hard. I'm gonna miss "my babies" so much. I haven't gone more then a couple of weeks without seeing them since they were born almost 5 years ago, and I'll be missing their birthday, their first day of school and who knows what else while away. I also won't be seeing my friends that I made while at school, those amazing women who helped me make it through every day and were always there to encourage me when I was feeling down or needed a girl's night out. I love those girls so much! I know we will keep in contact but it just won't be the same, and sadly I don't think I will be there to cheer them on as they walk across the stage. All of these things stink but in the end its worth it, and I would make this decision all over again. You see thats what you do for love. I'm not leaving them forever but just for a little while. The military needs us in California right now but as soon as we're done with it we're headin back to Texas!
