Six Months and Counting

If someone had told me six months ago that I would still be in Tullahoma with the kids, waiting for the house to sell, I would have laughed, told them to shut up and then cried. I might even have asked Fred to beg for his old job back and not move to Atlanta. I wonder if we wouldn't have gone through with our plans to move if we knew for sure things were going to end up like this.

But to be honest, it hasn't been that bad. While six months seems like an eternity, it also seems to have flown by. And the fact that we have made it this far makes the next four months seem easily doable. And now we have a definite end in sight, it almost feels like things are moving along too quickly. In May, we will have to start packing up so we can go ahead and join Fred in Atlanta when the school year is over. While that is exciting, it also puts me in a state of panic as I worry about the house not selling this year either. Plus I have to find a job. What if no school in Georgia will hire me? I feel like I have all the time in the world to send in my application to the local school systems, and also no time at all. I still have the TeacherInsight survey to take. I can't even seem to find the time to take a 50 minute "test". I'm looking forward to a time when my only worries will be making sure Cy gets his homework done and are the kids eating enough healthy foods. Hopefully I won't have to wait that long.
