Hey everyone,
Sorry its been so difficult for you, lindsey and britany, it will get better. One thing for sure is the navy always makes life interesting. I for one have some great news. We finally got our furniture, and early to boot. It was all moved in today and ashley furniture was fantastic. I would highly recommend them for any of you who need anything in the future. OoOoOoO and for the fun exciting news, I got a job today too. WICKED AWESOME DAY.. I felt the need to tell everyone because I was super excited.

I know I agree with everyone I love to plan things ahead of time and know what is going on before the last minute! It really helped that the lady at the housing office was very nice and helpfull! I just hope nothing else goes wrong and that the house will be ready for when we are moving! She did tell me there are a lot of apps that came in today and she will try calling me tomorrow with a date I think!

Hey ladies! Seems like everybody is going through something.... My husband went to kingsbay housing and they said our place won't be ready until next Friday. The move in has gone from today, to this week, now all the way to next week. But I'm still in good spirits, at least I'm a little more out of the dark. My husband is so down and out and I really wish I could physically be there for him. Lindsey I'm so happy to hear your story!! I'm glad you are still coming in November. Looks like I'm coming in November as well. Being a navy spouse is truly something else. If I could switch places with my husband right now, I would do it in a heart beat.
How is everyone's night going? I'm such a procrastinator when it comes to packing, I'm barely halfway finished and I'm leaving next week.... It's a DITY move though.

Yeah for real, emotional couple of days! I'm sorry. That's like the biggest thing I hate about the navy, you never know anything until the last minute. I know I drive Michael crazy, asking the same thing over and over.. but I am such a planner and I hate finding out what needs to be done at last minute. I think I finished all my packing today :) Finally lol

That sounds like an emotional couple days, i hope the rest of the chaos calms down for you!!

Well, I "hit a brick wall" yesterday and into today when I was told they were not going to let me move down there till April after my husbands added school was done! Well, I had already bought tickets for me and my girls to go to my parents where they will be till Christmas when we pick them up and visit! Well, they couldn't be returned and I have been so stressed out and I'm very sick right now too! Well, I called housing there and theysaid if they said no they would find a way to get me there if that is what we wanted! My husband called me today and told me they changed their mind and will let me move in Nov! I have been crying and praying and still packing as much as I could today! I'm so glad that God answered my prayers!
