Delays

Once again, Jake was supposed to go to the hotel tonight to go to MEPS tomorrow. To, you know, sign a contract and all of that.

Once again, he’s sitting at home instead. Just as he was getting ready to leave, his recruiter called. His grade determination had to be "sent higher up", so we have to wait some more on that. It’s bothering Jake because he thinks it means a lower chance of him getting back in.

He’s officially resigned from the police department at this point, though. We can’t make it through another month on our existing money supply, so we need the money from his earned vacation time and his retirement funds.

My mom arrived on Monday. She’s going to be staying with us for awhile until she finds a job….and maybe even longer, because she’s considering renting our house  when (if?) we move, at least until it sells. She is already driving me insane.

The “what-ifs” and “whens” of the military are maddening!
