Well guys, I don't want to talk too much about what is going on, but my life has just got turned upside down.
I have to move back home, find a house, find a job, put the kids in school (I have homeschooled thus far), sell my camper and big van, etc.
Anyone in the market for a camper????
Not sure when we will get to go back to the fort. I am going back to teaching so that eliminates all the times we liked to go. I will be in SE LA, so I will get a Mardi Gras break, which is great, except when it falls president's week. I do plan on making one last trip to the fort after we get settled into our new home.
I am glad we had already decided to go back to tent camping before this.
I am trying to decide between Mandeville (north of New Orleans) and Denham Springs (east of Baton Rouge). I considered my hometown, but there are no jobs available for me. In DS, I will be close to LSU when my son starts there next fall (it is his 1st choice college). I really like Mandeville, but am not sure about the job situation there. I am in the process of working with all the lovely army acronym agencies on doing all of these things, but it will take a while. Not sure when we are moving. I will also be having one major yard sale as a lot of our stuff needs to go to fit into a smaller home. No more king bed, no more huge wall unit entertainment center. Won't need a homeschool room, so most of that furniture will go. While I am at it, I may just go with a whole new style closer to my tastes.
My how life has a way of changing in the blink of an eye. I always liked the idea of starting over, but I just did it after Katrina, not really ready to do it again.
Time for a new tatoo!!!! I already dyed my hair. Maybe I will get my lovely belly button pierced too. Anybody got any kungaloosh handy?
I really need a trip to the fort. How crowded is it over Thanksgiving? Not sure if I can go this Mardi Gras or not. Can teachers skip school to go to disney? I really need to go there right now. Flying on Soarin'. Rafting down the Kali. Walking down mainstreet. Hanging out at the Fort!!!! Swinging in a hammock on the beach while the kids run amuck at the playground. Hmmm, boy do I need to get there soon. I have looking through the pic of the day to kind of slip away from the real world every night. It is not quite the same, but is nice.
Anyone from LA know the best place to sell a camper?
