And...We're Back!

Well, sort of.  I'm super terrible at this blogging thing.  To be fair, I have about 40 different drafts of blogs to actually publish, but thus far I'm not great at the finishing part.Anyway life goes on and on.  We're getting ready to move again!  Which is simultaneously sucky and awesome.

Cali has been great in a lot of ways but I haven't loved his job.  There are many reasons, but the summary is INTERNSHIP YEAR BLOWS.  80 hour work weeks, no time off to speak of, high stress, you get the picture.  I kind of miss having a husband.  To be entirely honest about it, that's kind of the norm for intern years.  They basically try to work you to death.  They sort of succeed.  I haven't met a wife who likes being away from their husband so you can imagine how little I've enjoyed it.

Now however we're getting ready to move to Washington!  Which is absolutely thrilling.  DrH has matched (an entirely different post for a different day when its not 2 am) with a military position, which means that he's currently in the process of joining the army.  Which is something he's wanted for a long time.  I think it has something to do with his Grandfather serving in WWII.  When you grow up hearing those stories I think a desire to serve is kind of inevitable.

Anyway, that means that we get to learn a whole new way of living.  And he gets to do some great work for very deserving people.  Upside for me, we get to travel (I kind of love traveling) and someone else will pack and move my crap!  Yes, that last one holds the most interest to me.  I hate packing.  Big strong guys doing my least favorite task for me?  Yes please!

So for now we're waiting for various boards to meet, paper work to go through, and duck walks to work out (I don't know what it means either but apparently its something you do when entering the military).  Its an exciting time of life!
