And the" light at the end of the tunnel" I got so tired of hearing that while we were in a decade of schooling. Thing is, even when you are out of school there are always new obstacles to overcome. Certain things do get easier but then new issues arrive. I agree with Mike McAtee, concentrate of the here and now and enjoy what you have now. I know all about fretting about the future and the "what ifs" but they'll just make you crazy. BTW, I don't know if this helps but with my two oldest girls I had the missionaries teach them all of the discussions before they were baptized. It's always refreshing for them to get a different perspective (other than mom or dad's). You'll be surprised at what he knows and doesn't know. It'll be a great experience for him.Alannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09369051335598702523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366315366123515090.post-39481157408656704032009-04-14T21:37:00.000-04:002009-04-14T21:37:00.000-04:00Wow I can only imagine what it would be like to be...Wow I can only imagine what it would be like to be in your head.

You will buy your fabulous dream house...<br />B. Princie will be the "superstar " of OT<br />C. We all anxiously await the "makeover" you know me...I love the whole "makeover" scenario!<br />D. The "business"...clean cut success from day one!<br />E. The Captain...will be fine, here or there and so will all of you...I know that. If it should happen, it will be "but for a moment" in time.<br />F. Neighborhood..your "formula" for picking those has never failed you...not going to now.<br />G. 11 year old...I can hear it now..."OH MY GOSH, have you seen the new boy..he is so freakin' cute, I think I might die!" New Kid on the Block will Rock!<br />H. 7 year old...that boy came into this world prepared for most everything...the twinkle in his eyes and the smile on his face tell you his little spirit is so close to Heavenly Father...he just "gets life."<br />I. Ladies' tribute...who would possible care if its "overdue"...heck somebody writes a tribute to me, I'm flattered...I don't care when they get around to it..just get around to it!<br />J. Laundry...don't worry it won't go anywhere...trust me!<br />K. I don't give one tiny little rat's #@* about what dog lives in the White House....(this one could go on, but I shall refrain). I am just sorry they could not find a dog who needed to be "rescued." I guess all the shelters and rescue leagues were empty...must have been the mad Easter "dog" rush...<br />L. Class warfare....somebody has to keep it going...I mean, really, crummy job, but somebody's gotta do it...who better than those with the most experience.<br />M. I don't know why you love food...guess b/c most of what you love is just too dang good to quit!<br />N. Isn't DITCH DIGGING EXERCISE??<br /><br />Well, there you go.....problems solved...don't keep us waiting too long!

I have been a bit out of touch (re: blog world) and am sorry I haven't been able to comment much. I'm so excited about the light at the other side of your tunnel -- that sounds great! And I hope you are able to continue to feel (positive) nervous excitement about all of it. I hope Princie is doing well and that you are getting a good handle on what will work best for her and family. Hang in there and I'll look forward to your next post in a week or so...Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03910724060715591409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366315366123515090.post-37610553317632364862009-04-14T16:55:00.000-04:002009-04-14T16:55:00.000-04:00I'm excited for all the new adventures you have co...I'm excited for all the new adventures you have coming your way! My son-in-law is just finishing his 2nd year of med school...don't think he sees that light yet. But back to you: if you weren't worried about something, you'd be dead. That's just human nature. Keep your head down, do your best, and keep trudging along. You'll be through all of this before you know it, and there will be new things to fret over! But lots and lots of beautiful experiences and people along the way to keep in your heart as well. Life is hard, but it's also very sweet. Good luck with the list - I'm looking forward to hearing all your thoughts.

And when it does, it's usually so wonderful that we hardly dare to be excited because surely it's too good to be true. Well for now...it's good and it's true!! Enjoy!

Stop worrying - what actually happens when things go wrong?

And yo...All I can say is, GREAT TO HAVE YOU BACK! <br /><br />And your mom is right...stop borrowing trouble. It'll come around sooner or later anyway, as it always does, so enjoy every Kings "X" that comes your way!<br /><br />I'm excited that you are so excited about Georgia. July is just a hop, skip and a jump away!<br /><br />I, too, am trying to get a regular exercise schedule going. It's like pulling teeth to get past the 3-day mark. Same with my food consumption. *sigh* (Which Easter did NOT help.)<br /><br />Glad the end of residency is around the corner but sorry to hear that deployment could come so soon. That's a tough one, but you'll handle it. And you'll be in Georgia!<br /><br />Hope OT goes well for Princie (I'm sure it will), and if it makes you feel any better, I don't care one whit about what kind of dog the Obamas have.<br /><br />=)Susan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049586085703324088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366315366123515090.post-83554435883204347102009-04-14T12:33:00.000-04:002009-04-14T12:33:00.000-04:00I am right there with you - even though Mike and I...I am right there with you - even though Mike and I have reached a good place in our life, I keep waiting for something to rush in and take away the good. Why do we do that to ourselves? Mike always tells me that I need to concentrate on the here and now and enjoy it - and while I am enjoying it, I keep thinking that perhaps it is to good to be true. Perhaps I just need the stress to survive : )<br /><br />Good luck with your list and coming out of the tunnel - I can't wait to hear all about it as it unfolds!McAtee Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15103111055259623878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366315366123515090.post-57999994865472728292009-04-14T12:30:00.001-04:002009-04-14T12:30:00.001-04:00You are not a whackjob, you are a woman.
