April 8th
Clearly it's a time to sit back and count our blessings and remember that we CHOSE this, otherwise I'll have to go into the fetal position and rock myself until the crazy quits and that could be a very long time!
This is exhausting! We are trying to sell or store everything we own in 20 days. And still, of course, work full time and raise the kids, and then they have the audacity to ask for food???? WHAT???
  I'm on crutches trying to take it easy so as not to go through yet another ACL, which doesn't help at all. It's really a mess right now, thank goodness for our friend Jenny who has swooped in the last few days and done her "White Tornado" impression, cleaning kitchen cabinets, closets and everything else she can get her hands on! Two loads to the Task Force, a garage full of things to sell and things are on craigslist, which is, I am now finding, my own private hell.
     I told my administrators today, it was fantastic. They were very supportive and excited for us, which of course makes so many things so much easier. My concerns about Jacob's (Our oldest son) acceptance of this were somewhat assuaged today when his writing project was a letter home to us about how excited he is and the things he is really looking forward to. The most important of which is the possibility of meeting Uncle Si of Duck Dynasty. So things are rolling along, and there is yet another box calling my name, one major step down, many more to come... And as Uncle Si would say....
And you can take that to the bank, Jack!
