We're going...We're staying...We're going....



Too cute! Annnnnnnd I can even link it to my latest rant!! hehe.


Anybody unlucky enough to be within my inner circle in Townsville is feeling a little like this these days!

We were going...we were staying.....we were going...and now I THINK we are going!! Yay...boohoo...yay....oh heck....I dunno how I feel anymore!!

For everybody else out there in blog land who are completely confused let me explain...

Scott is medically discharging from the Army. Easy enough process you would think. Unfortunately for us, it has become the most frustrating experience to date. Despite the whole "where are we going to live?" problem, which in itself was overwhelmingly hard, the powers that be in the Army decided that although we have 3 children in school, October 17 would be a good date to move to that new location. We didn't agree. So Scott has been putting in requests and pleas to try to get our relocation date extended until December, all to no avail. With a very complicated conflict going on in the background, it seemed that we were going to be driving out of Townsville on Thursday 17th October, we had our boxes delivered, our house inspection, and had prepared the kids to say good bye to their friends. Luckily I live with one of the most persistant humans to walk the earth, and after an extremely well written grievance letter that kinda pointed out a few fatal flaws in the heirachy, we were magically offered out extention until December 17?!

Sooooo, now...apparently....we are driving out of here November 30...until further notice. Now that I have finally got around to letting Mum and Dad know our almost set intentions. it will be easier to keep you all updated without feeling like I have to be careful what I say.
So stay tuned to this blog...lol.
