So, that little countdown ticker is starting to stare me in the face and make me realize that there is a lot to decide and do before those 75 days till graduation tick down. Our apartment renewal came in the mail the other day and as it turns out, it's due in a month. EEK! Here's to hoping we have something lined up by the time our lease runs out...
Most of all, I'm excited. Excited for being real-people and not students. Excited to move. Excited for change. Of course, excited for income. Add nervous, anxious, sad, and scared to that list, though. I'm nervous for many things, but mostly that we won't find the kind of job we're looking for...that we'll end up taking something out of sheer desperation. I'm anxious that time will slip by and things will happen last minute and cause a panic attack. I'm sad at the prospect of leaving friends and family (if we leave, that is...) and I'm scared that that 'worst case-scenario' will actually play out and that we WON'T find something until months down the road and be forced to live on our not-so-deep student loan stock-pile.
At the end of the day, I know things will work out one way or another. I just wish I knew how. At least I know that I have my little family with me through it all.

I remember feeling that way this time last year. But it will work out I'm sure. You have a great husband and family and no matter what happens, they will always be there for you.
I remember that feeling so well. It's very nerve-racking! West lost his job we had set up 2 months before leaving Chicago, law school. I remember the helplessness I felt, it's really out of our hands as wives. It all works out though. Amazingly, it really does. It will for you too, I don't doubt it one bit, and either should you. Love, Kristi
I feel this way NOW! We're still waiting to hear if Trent gets accepted to any medical schools for next year...So we could be in Omaha, Reno, or West Virginia next year, or....Out on the street somewhere? Just kidding, but I feel ya... I'm not a big fan of the uncertainty.
Everything will work out JUST fine :) Enjoy the adventure!
What do you mean "if" you leave? I thought it was a definite! Are you guys thinking about staying in Kentucky? You know that would make my life AMAZING as I'm moving to Louisville in May of next year! Not getting my hopes up, but it's still nice to dream :)
75 days?!? Wow, thats crazy, and you know how jealous I am!
