Home alone…

I can’t complain today. The sun is shining, summer is nearly here! I’m wearing a tee-shirt which is a lovely change from donning the mandatory heavy coat for the wintery days.

Kansas spring has been a little slow to start but THANK GOD it is starting because this warm blooded girl needs something other than cold winds and snow! LOL.

Jimmy is at school Monday through Friday till 12.30pm so after half a day I haved my Hubby (elect) back. We can’t be bothered with this whole Fiance/Fiancee bullshit so despite not being legally wed, we’re just jumping right to it. LOL.  Today I think we’re going bed shopping… We want to see what kind of deals are out there because the one we have is damn near on it’s last legs. There is some furniture clearance place nearby that the Soldiers on base have been recommending for quality at discount prices. Being a bargain hunter we’re headed there later to check it out.

I’m currently researching a few different things:
lawyers (obviously) and nursing positions.

Being the slack ass I am I’m still not done the final assignments and journal entries for the conversion course I started last year. Something about getting busy with work and family just made me put it in the "too hard basket." Now of course I’ve forgotten to bring the criteria with me to the U.S so I have no ikdea of what I’m meant to write and the upshot of all this is that I can’t sit the NCLEX until I’m done. Ugh.

…just between you and me, the NCLEX is scaring the pants off me. I’m not terribly good at exams and haved a horrid reputation of "guessing" answers…. Oooops?

So i can’t apply for any jobs until all that is done and I think by the time that comes around my visa will be near expiring and I’ll be on a plane back to Oz. This is not ideal either because I don’t really want to leave. Apart from loving my family and friends, once I get settled here it just seems to feel right and I’d just rather get the girls into school and start enjoying some level of security. I really REALLY wish I could get this divorce thing settled. Does anyone know some wealthy person OR a decent lawyer in NY?? I keep thinking that SOMEONE must know someone somewhere!!!!!

Of course if I could get a social security number here then I could probably get us the loan we need but as life has it, that’s not possible until I’m a resident. God the troubles!!!!

So that’s a day in my life. I must say this: Gawd I took school for granted!!!! I’d do anything to NOT be a SAHM!!!!

I bet there are other things you can do to at least keep you busy. Not necessarily jobs but volunteering for things or joining clubs. At least you could get out and meet people. Once summer hits, Kans-ass will be ripe. Good old humidity. I’ve fallen out of being used to that. In Minnesota it’s ever so present the second you walk outside and your hair falls flat and about 309520395 millionmosquitos land on you but in CO, it’s really dry here. Wasn’t there talk about Ft. Riley at some point? You guys moving there? Either way, this summer we will definitely have to arrange some sort of trip to see each other. Even if it’s meeting in a semi central point (there isn’t a TON that is halfway haha) and hanging out for the weekend. You know you can text anytime, love. I’m at work during the day but my cell phone is allowed and accessible at all times.

There has got to be some way to force her hand in this divorce! There’s just got to be something that can be done. I hope you are ok Vee. Better you being there than over here.
