Well, I guess it's not bad enough to puke. It's 99% confirmed that Josh will be leaving for 6 months to Kuwait starting in August (that's 6 weeks). The money will be nice. So far that's all I've come up with for positives. My list of negatives is like a mile long, but I will keep that to myself. I hate holidays anyway. Oh well! I'm sure it will go by really fast. When all is said and done we'll have enough money to get our land or whatever and blah blah blah. It sucks, but what can you do?
This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE. We happen to be surrounded by water. The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between. Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights. We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right? Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace. I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that. I at least want a gas stove and water heater! So, anyways. We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...
