Ugh

Hubby is gone til the end of April...not even for his own benefit either. His brigade is helping their sister brigade train for their Afghanistan deployment at Fort Polk in Louisiana...the other guys (who are idiots btw...they fall asleep on guard duty. Nice to know that's what's protecting bases overseas right?) didn't want to use the guys who train every other brigade from Fort Polk. So that leaves us home alone for about 3 weeks, he left the day after Easter.

On top of that, we are moving. Now. Just to turn around and move again in December. We got in trouble for having dogs (I told them I was dog sitting for friends who are out of town....but since they are puppies I technically can't even do that. And people have apparently been complaining because Cairo is a whine baby.) But also the crime rate just keeps getting worse. Our lease is up anyway and we were debating on moving, but the dog situation and the crime going on, we are just going to move somewhere super cheap and deal with that until December. The downfall to this going on right now is that because Adam was only going to be gone for 3ish weeks, and I'm on all of our accounts so I can take care of things, we didn't get power of attorney. So that's an issue as far as putting in HIS applications and what not for apartments. But this one we are looking at basically said "I don't want to know" if I take it home and have "Adam" sign it. So we'll see what I do with that. I could wait, but do I want to? Idk yet. AND they don't have a breed OR age restriction for the dogs! Just a weight limit which Cairo will surpass in no time, but she said since we wont be there that long and as long as he isn't a turd, there shouldn't be a problem with it. So yay! We've looked into this place before, but for the 1 bedrooms. I'm gonna try tomorrow to look at a 2 bed...these apartments are inside a locked building and have AC which my apartment now doesn't have. AND it's super cheap. $499 a month before pet rents and utilities we pay to them. Our apartment now is $735 before all of that.

So kinda excited, but I HATE moving....and just the thought of moving next month, then again in December is making me stressed already.

  1. You poor thing! I hope you get into that apartment. Although moving just to turn around and move again is a lot of work, December is still 8 months away, so maybe by then it won't seem so close together!
    I'm just glad you're keeping your dog! Or is it dogs? I thought you just had 1?
