Tarring Our Heels


Remember how awhile back J got sent to far away lands in the country of Texas for six weeks and only my mom visiting kept Little One and I from the depths of despair?! Pretty dicey there, wasn't it? Well, Uncle Sam will steal J away from us again. BUT NOT THIS TIME! HA!
For J's next rotation, he will be stationed in North Carolina. Thanks, however, to the tenacity and advanced sleuthing skills of my fantastically awesome mother in law, we will not have to live without him. Take that Uncle Sam! I stick my thumbs in my ears and wiggle my fingers at you!!
That's right! Because after months of searching and finally giving up hope, my MIL found us a place that fits our four magic conditions: short term lease, fur-friendly, close enough that J can get to work in under an hour, cheap enough the military will pay for it.
This is, apparently, a nearly impossible combo. But MIL found it! Yay! And so Little One, the doggies, J and I are packing up and heading out. On Sunday.
Is it a rash decision made at the very last minute? Yes!
Do we have any idea what we're really getting ourselves into? No!!
Are we super excited anyways? Yes!!!

  1. Oh my gosh! How long will you be gone for? Let me know if you need me to ship you emergency injera overnight (that is, if it's not available!)

  2. We'll be gone about a month! I will definitely keep that offer in mind; I think actual withdrawal symptoms are a possibility. Thanks!
