They are coming

The tears are finally setting in. I've been out of my home for a few weeks now and moved into my parents for the time being and it's just now hitting me. I've spent the last 4 days with my family (Hoss and the babies) and in two I leave to go back home and it hurts. I've been by my now house (because my home is elsewhere) and it's just not the same. I see things that makes me wish, we would have sold it so I wouldn't have to see it again.
I just had my 29th birthday, thankfully with my family, but sadly no one else. And I feel like I'm leaving on Wednesday like a thief in the night because I won't get to see Hoss before I leave.
I'm ready to be back with everyone and now trying to figure out if we can in fact survive on 1.5 incomes and let me move down here and just do paper work until I find a local job.
And yes things have been changing as they always do. Hoss had to get a new car - 2012 Chrysler 200 :) Mom and I are working hard on our hobby, soon to become a real business. But honestly, even my birthday meant nothing to me because it's fleeting and after 7 days, I would have to go back to my reality. Which is this: stuck at a job that I love, but need to leave with my boss leaving, a new temp that won't listen to me, a new temp that I have yet to meet, one co-worker rightfully getting "promoted" to manager and the other rightfully getting "promoted" to my job (well most of it). I feel a little useless, among other things.
Had an interview on Thursday which started my downness. It just didn't feel like it went all that well and then nothing happened for my day, shopping on Saturday wasn't fun, and then it was the downhill of my vacation.
Plus side was Saturday night was a blast but even that was fleeting.
Yep, I'm Debby Downer right now

Is it the final countdown??

Kind of feels like it. The house is pretty much packed, Hoss is settled in his new job, living like a bachelor and I'm antsy to finish this move.
I started my job hunt a week or so earlier than I planned. Still waiting which always puts me on edge, but at least one of the jobs doesn't close until tomorrow. Have to make plans to take off to take a civil service test in case I have to go that route. Which wouldn't be a bad idea, I just feel like I would be starting over AGAIN in my career (as much as it is). But right now there is nothing open for a consumer loan officer and if there is it's not what I do, it's more of a loan processor. I'm used to making decisions here and I'm damned good at it. And frankly, I refuse to go back into banks. I don't agree with their ideology so that's a no go.
Hoss had two  of the three pups this week at the apartment and it's been funny to hear the stories. Huck is acting out majorly and Hoss gets to clean up the poop! Hoss has no routine and dogs need it and Huck is still a puppy so he needs it more. But Huck stays with him and they train each other. I'm not taking him back, nope sorry, love him but he stresses me out.
They seem to be adapting well to the dog park and no constant outside, but Sandy has been with me so we'll see.
Our renters move in August and that will be interesting. They are already wanting to move stuff in but I have no place to put ours so that's a no go.
Can't say I'm going to miss this old place and town. We've had a few good ones but the bad ones out number and I'm ready to start anew. The question, will that be possible?

The moving saga part 2

I am beyond stressed. I hate moving now more than I thought. Hoss has a mini vacation going. He's in the new apartment (which is totally costing us a fortune, but downtown BR, next to a dog park - what more could we ask for), while I'm stuck with the pups and packing up. He's just missing cable because poor baby can't hook it up correctly (or it's not working).
But it's day 3 of his new job and seems to be working out well and I'm ready to move with him. So it's time to start the job hunt.
