Nice few days....

Tim's promotion/advance and raise isn't going to happen. The guy who was taking the retirement package rescinded his acceptance so Tim won't be able to get the Senior position and the promotion/raise that goes with it. :sigh: Needless to say Tim's got his resume out and has hopes that he'll find a better paying job. He's even willing to go overseas even if it means the kids and I will be left here in the states so he can get some big pay so that he can assure our bills are paid off and we're okay to buy our first home. Gotta love that man! It'll be super difficult being on my own with two kids, but military moms do it all the time, so I guess I can do it. If it weren't for Tim's Army education he wouldn't even qualify for this one job. He sent in his resume today. He applies for his passport in the AM (requirement of job) just to be sure he's ready.

Hopefully my cuz will get the paperwork signed/notarized and return it to the lawyer so we can get the adoption completed asap (preferrably BEFORE and IF Tim goes overseas for work)....going to call Auntie G. to get on her to complete it asap. It's the only thing holding us up at this point.

Tim's off today, Mon and Tues, so we have 3 days with him...planning to go to the beach early tomorrow AM. I believe we've got a few movies to watch tomorrow, as well.

So, I'm feeling as though so much is up in the air at the moment and not wanting to do much until we figure out what's what. Financially the job would ensure we're debt free, able to live comfortably and buy a house. I still can't believe he's willing to do that for us...go to Saudi or Turkey or Iraq or somewhere in SouthEast Asia to work as a contractor so he can take care of his family. I can't help but worry, though, that his head will come home to me in a box....all that they can find of him. I can't help but think of those contractors that the Iraqi's burned, hanged and then put their heads on pikes for all to see. :shudder: It's the same exact job he had in the military and he's actually looking forward to getting back to that kind of work again, the travel, and the experiences.

Oye, G's crying...gotta run!
Until next time!
