Justin submitted his application for voluntary separation from the Air Force this week... I'm so excited about our future and moving closer to my family, but I'm anxious for the answer and for this huge change for our little family. We have ultimately decided that whether or not his application gets approved, he will be separating this year, either in September or November at the end of this enlistment. The worst part of this is that we won't find out about the application until sometime in February... yikes!
This means a few things... Justin will go back to school, I will finally (hopefully) work as a nurse, we will start our family, and we will move 400 ish miles away and start over. I'm excited and apprehensive about all of this. I'm scared and nervous about being somewhere new and away from all (but one) of my friends.
There is so much to plan and arrange... If approved the AF will move us to our new location! One less thing for me to figure out. We need to find a new place, I need to secure a job, and we need to apply to schools. I'm sure this is normal for most people who move, but I've never had to figure all of this out. Thankfully for Christmas, my mom got me an amazing Martha Stewart book about keeping the home. There is a chapter completely about moving!! It's become my new bible!
I know that what is meant to happen will happen and God has a plan, but I can't help but be nervous and anxious... but I am super excited!! I mean, who doesn't want to live close to their best friend and the beach and Disneyland?!
On a happier and less anxious note, I've been baking more and I'm in love with scones!! Oh goodness, how have I never "liked" scones before?! I made vanilla scones with a glaze and it was a HUGE hit!! I didn't take any picture because, honestly, they looked crappy. I will, however, take pictures of my new adventure with scones this week. I'm going to try Blueberry Scones with a Lemon Curd
Until next time..
