I am about to do my BIU today. Went to the super market with the girls... Proud to say I spent only $47, had tons of coupons... the cashier probably hated me.  Anyhow the trip was pleasant until my husband called my cell to say his USMC Reserve unit approved his transfer request to join Active Duty Army.... YIKES! So this means that we are going to be moved soon, I told him absolutely not to sign any contracts until after we get back from Punta Cana... I am so stressed right now, having to put the house on the market... getting it ready and polished up to sell is going to be hell! UGH! Nevermind leaving my family here in RI.  I also have thought about joining the Army too.  I was in the reserves for 8 years, got out in 04, I was an enlisted nurse but then the Army changed that job, I don't what I would qualify for now, at least then we would both be working... and be together unless there is a deployment. That's the other sucky part... I am not going to eat my anxiety away,  I am going to take control and put my fears into positive energy and accomplishments.

I fear the unknown, makes my stomach get that flippy feeling...  Nothing ever seems to be easy.  Eric seems to think that this is the best for our future.  He is a SGT in the USMC, he wants to continue in the military towards his retirement.  He wants to get a medical MOS (job)  so he can have a skill to offer the civilian world, now his USMC job is to load bombs on jets!  Not that great on a resume! 

I am seriously going to pray about this, and pray hard.  Everything will fall into place.
