Tuesday May 12, 2009

When I woke up this morning, I thought it was Wednesday.  I was laying in bed going through my head all the things that I needed to get done today.  I was also thinking about all the things I need to get done for this upcoming move and how it's just a couple months away and we don't even have our paperwork in yet, yada, yada,yada...... Then it hit me that somehow this week has gone by fast because I can't even remember what I did on Tuesday and how I'm really getting forgetful.  After I went through some more things in my mind I realized that in fact it really was Tuesday and that I hadn't lost a day, but I must have had some really rocking dreams to think I had already gone through the day;)  Hmmm......I wonder if that is what happens when we get older.  My Mom is always talking about how she doesn't know what day it is, and how time just seems to fly by and she's always wondering what day it is and now I am starting to sound just like her:/  Don't know how I'm feeling about that, but anyway, I'm glad that I have an extra day for the week to get things done.  

We finally have all the paperwork we need to turn in for the medical part.  Now will come the part of having to go through the dental for me and the medical for the boys.  I know I can get the dental stuff done before we leave here, but I hope the asthma will be something they can deal with in the Netherlands.  I guess we will see.

We finally got a live person at one of the military passport places.  We ended up having to tell our go to guy we needed a good number and name.  So I'm thinking tomorrow we will take care of the military passports and be done with that.

This morning Amy Heymann (she is the Mom of one of the American families that are over there right now) called from the Netherlands to give me a heads up about getting the boys applications in to the school they are going to be attending in Eindhoven.  I guess they are in the middle of taking the applications for the next school year so it would be good that I submit ours now.  I will need to finish a couple more things then I can get those off by the end this week and we should be good for that.  Then I guess the waiting will come.  That's the worst part.

I guess I don't have much to talk about.  Things here are pretty much the same.  School every day, the boys grumbling about chores and just trying to figure out how to fit more ours in the day so we can get all we want done, done.  No matter what happens, there will be a move, one way or the other.  I guess I'm resigning to that fact.  Just starting to get excited about the dates and what we will finally do before we leave.
