This is one of those trying times

I don't know why but I've really been putting off writing this post. I guess it's kind of like if I lay my soul bare here, it's all over. So here it goes...

We are NOT going to England... ----

I know this is all I've been talking about for months and now this happens. However the military is the military and they have brought forth a decree.

They have denied our clearance yet again. Stating that I am too "unstable" for overseas travel. Can you believe that? That being the case I don't think that many of the worlds population could or should be considered stable. And just who decides my stability anyway? I am just pissed that some doctor that has NEVER met me can decide my stability. For those of you who KNOW me, it is without a doubt that right now is the most "stable" I have ever been. So whatever....

As of right now we are being processed into a special military category for family members with "special needs". It is called the Exceptional Family Members Program. They match you with bases that can offer services to meet the families requirements. For me, according to my therapist that is a big fat NOTHING. For Taty she just "needs" a pediatric dentist and apparently they don't have any of those in the UK. I can only assume that they do, and just don't want to have to deal with finding or payingfor one.

The Lord only knows how long this new assignment process is going to take. He's also the only one who can explain to me why life SO sucks right now. However I am convinced that His plans are way better that any I could come up with. I'm also sure that He knows what He's doing. He did do it all ya know, the world and everything. He has obviously got it down by now. I just wish he would give us "mere" mortals a heads up once in a while. It is ever so nice to know when your world is about to come crashing down around your ears.

So now I am up to those ears in stuff for my kid-sis' wedding, pre-PCS junk, as well as a thousand and one "leaving the AK forever" projects. We will be flying home for the wedding and a much needed vacation, the third week in May. I'm hoping that being home with my family helps me regain some of my lost Zing! A great side effect to this would be for the military to get their idiot rears in gear and get us a compatible assignment.
