Sorry I was gone for a while, I will still be gone but I will return...

Hi everyone, First of all I REALLY have to apologize for leaving things the way I did. Clearly not in a good frame of mind and then not posting at all for nearly a month.

My official appology can be found HERE, you must go and take a look.

I had decided I would take a week to just avoid all commitments and focus on myself. I was doing such a good job for almost the whole week. Then one day out of the blue my husband comes home with a shocking announcement.

He was offered a transfer. Not a move a couple of hours away like the last one (Exactly a year ago.) Oh no... A huge one... Like all the way to the other side of the country. This far. I was asking a zillion questions, "What will you do, is it better pay, will they pay for the move, how soon, do YOU want to, why should I, will we be okay so far away from family. Typical ranting and raving questions that any woman would ask her husband before she slips off the edge of reality. I was so sure it was a joke... He must have been testing my faith in him or something to that effect. For a week I kept asking if he was kidding. He kept saying no but we have to think seriously about it so he can let them know our decision. OK after a week I finally started thinking hard about it. All those hours of tossing and turning and laying there awake finally got put to good use. I came to the decision, that my career has always come first until we made the move here. He has worked so hard to get where he is and to finally get the recognition by being offered this new position is so great for him. I am proud that they want him. (He is a great man and hard worker who really deserves it.)

So like Tammy Wynnette- I am gonna STAND BY MY MAN. <--- go ahead click it you know you want to. We are moving to Edmonton Alberta in 1 months time.

There are a few complications with the transfer stemming from the fact that he is in a non unionized office and will be going to a unionized office. The move will not be paid for up front but he will be compensated for it afterwards. It would cost us over 3500.00 just to rent a truck to take our things, so we have decided to sell everything and re buy when we get there. We don't have a place to call home when we get there yet so I am worried about that. I hate selling my things but I look forward to LOT of shopping.

The bottom line is I have spent the past couple of weeks working on getting things done before the move. And from the bottom of my heart I am sorry I left things hanging. Thank you to EVERYONE who e-mailed me concerned about how I was doing. I love you all tremendously. The nice thing about you all is that you go with me on my new chapter!! (In a manner of speaking.) So pack your cyber bags.

I must get back to worrying, crying all that emotional junk before my guys get home. I may be gone a while but I promise to return.

Love,

Coleen
XOXOXO

P.S. The hardest thing will be thinning out my scrap supplies and selling most of it.... Boo hoo...
Any takers?
