Living in Savannah

Just the everyday saga of a military family who is living in the beautiful surroundings of Savannah GA. The husband is an MP with previous deployments to Iraq and looking at a medical retirement with the wife going to nursing school full time not to mention they have 3 kids and 3 dogs!

Things....

Things just aren't working out and I'm not sure why....Ben and I had this "plan" we've been working on. The plan includes me getting in the LPN program this Fall, do my clinicals and then graduate so that will be just enough time for him to get all of this military review/chaptering/retiring out of the way and then when I graduate, get a job, he can get out and we will still be covered. Things just have a way of putting a kink into all of that and at this point I'm not sure what to do....I feel so defeated. I have worked so hard, worked my tail off, to get good grades and do everything else around here. It sounds like I won't be going into the LPN program until the Spring of 2006, waiting list from hell. *sigh* So now what am I going to do.....I have an option but then that means continuing on with school this summer. I'll find out for sure today, I'm just really down....

Oh boy. Gretchen, I've found myself in similar situations and some how things always work out - often time better than I had prayed they would! Keeping you and yours in my prayers.

:::::HUGS::::: I really believe things work out as they should. The two of you have worked very hard to take care of your family and your future. I believe it will work out in the end. Hang in there and don't succumb to the feelings of defeat. You are doing amazingly!

I am so sorry things aren't working out as planned. I know how defeated you must feel, but it may all work out better then expected...even tho you can't see that right now. We never know what's God's plan, we just have to have faith and trust...
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
*hugs*
