Grateful Yet Confused
For all of these things we are grateful:
Yay! We have official orders that say we are detached from Quantico as of 2 March! Thank goodness, since we are packing our stuff and leaving Virginia on 28 February and will be in Florida looking for a place to move into by the 2nd of March!
It has been a test of faith, a good one of course, believing and knowing that God will work everything out with our housing situation/upcoming move and accepting that He works on His own time tables! :-)
I have been in contact with the base housing office in Florida and our current apartment's management since the 1st of January, trying to figure out when we would be coming/going and what housing was going to be available when we did get to Florida!
We are so grateful that everything is coming together, just as we knew it would!
Patience IS a virtue! :-)
And now the confused part...
which requires continued faith that all will work out how it's already been planned... just not by us! ;-)
The base housing office understands that as of 2 March 2007 we WILL be in Florida with a U-Haul full of worldly possessions and we will be looking for a place to make our new home... but until the minute we physically SHOW UP we do not have a guaranteed place to live?!?!
The can "pencil us in" to a specific address this coming Monday, since we will physically be in Florida, but that's not set in stone! Crazy to me! :-) Thankfully they claim they have plenty of options for us, so it's no big deal, but it sure would be nice to have a forwarding address before we get to Florida...
Hey Mom, be on the look out for our final bills/etc.... looks like your address will be our forwarding address! ;-)
We are looking forward to a great weekend in Florida with the Butler's!
Pictures when we get back on the 14th!

I feel ya! I have a range of about 10 days in which to expect Will back from his deployment, and contrary to what I expected, it keeps getting sooner rather than later! I can't wait to have him home, but I hate getting my hopes up if it really isn't going to be as soon as they say. So, in my confused way of putting it, I know how you feel. I'm praying that you guys get a great place to live with room enough for the puppy!
Thanks Amy! Early is better than late, but I understand the whole "not wanting to get your hopes up!" It's better to be surprised than disappointed! :-) Keep in touch!
