No news yet

Well, I was certainly hoping by now to let you know that Kolt had passed his medical evaluation and was going to be interviewing with the Chief Nurse soon, but alas, apparently it can take up to a month for the Surgeon General to approve GERD, not the 1-2 weeks like I had originally thought. But, I do really feel like we have direction now. We've pretty much decided that he's going to join now, it just makes the most sense financially and in this time of recession, we need to be smart. I'm afraid that if he wanted to go to grad school now and then responsibility of providing a living fell on my shoulders, I'd have a hard time getting a decent job, since I'm having that problem right now.

As of right now I've officially applied for 4 jobs and haven't heard anything back on any of them. I really expected the PSR job in Preston to be no problem, but I sent a follow up email on Monday and have yet to hear anything :( It's frustrating, especially since we really need to get Kolt his own place. Our roommate just decided to buy a lovely new puppy, a puppy who apparently NEVER stops barking when it's alone. This equals bad news for Kolt when he has to sleep during the day after a grave yard shift. I really need to have a job in order to pay the increased cost of rent for our own place down there. It's all pretty frustrating, but what can I do?

But over all I am much happier now than I have been in a while. Kolt and I just got through redecorating our bedroom with our own bedding. We took down all of the knick knacks and fake flowers that made the room feel kind of stuffy and will put up our own pictures and decor to really make it feel like OUR room. I also convinced my mom to redecorate our bathroom and I love it. I should take some pictures I suppose and up load them, maybe later lol.

I finally feel like our lives have direction and purpose again. I'm 95% sure that we'll know what's happening before May is over, then we'll have the summer to play and enjoy, and then start a new adventure. It just feels so right, I'm so excited to be an Air Force wife. I really feel like by being in the Air Force first, Kolt will be able to get into any school he wants. I can't even imagine how proud I'll be of him when he gets accepted to more than one top 5 school!

The only dark cloud in the air right now is the anniversary of our first miscarriage is rapidly approaching. We plan on going to the grave site and visiting the baby, but I know it's going to be so hard. Thankfully, my best friend is going to come out and visit me to help me through this hard time. I know I'll get through it just like everything else, but it's definitely not going to be easy.
