getting back in the swing of things.

So, how has this week been for me?
H***!

I've been trying to reintegrate myself back into Virginia life and it has not been to great for me! 

First, it's taking me a full week to get everything unpacked and in the right place. I have a horrible case of OCD ( I get it honestly from my mother.) I hate clutter and mess.
I live by the "everything has a place" motto.
The boys' room is the WORST room in the house.
I have gotten everything else in the house done but our and the boys' room.

Second, at the same time I'm trying to fix this apartment, I'm looking for another one. I hate that when it's time to find a place to live, DB is always conveniently underway or even better DEPLOYED!
I'm always communicating about our new place through email.
But, I think I found one.
I hope this is THE ONE, I'm tired of moving.
(this is the FOURTH apartment in 2 yrs, yea I know RIDICULOUS)

Third, school, work, and childcare!
Trying to get my job back has been the hardest thing yet, I need my Old Navy discount back!
The next hardest job is finding a childcare provider that is good enough for my babies. I'm torn between daycare centers a and home day cares.
Chubby would do great with home child care because he's an infant, but Monkey would do better with daycare centers to interact with other kids.
I'm just confused and hopefully I find one and SOON!
School really isn't that hard, but finding the time (and sitter) to go out to Va Beach is the issue!!

I'm definitely back in reality :-)

This week in a nutshell CHAOTIC. I feel like I haven't had ANY time to do anything, but I find myself in the same spot doing NOTHING wondering where the time went. I'm supposed to be heading back to VA (yea, I fled when deployment came) next Saturday. While down in Georgia for the last 4 months i managed to double everything I brought down here. Obviously, a little retail therapy is the way i cope with deployment, not remembering that all this stuff will have to get back home some way. So the majority of this week was supposed to be spent packing. Well that plan has failed me! I've done everything but packed. All I've done is take all of our clothes out of the drawers and left them on the bed... Never in the suitcases they go in.

Talked to DB yesterday and he told me the date that's being thrown around for homecoming and I'm not too pleased. Let's just say it's a little later than expected but it's not that bad since we've already made it this far. What's a few more months going to do? Just makes room for an even better homecoming.

I hope it's too long until I write again and hope i've packed my life up when I do write again!
