Scarlett Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 My dh left for Tulsa half an hour ago. We are both soooooooo excited for him to have this job. I've been so focused on getting through the hiring process that I forgot about the part where we are going to be seperated during the week! :( I'm not liking it already. Guess I better focus on educating my kid and organizing the house....and then be able to enjoy him when he is home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today was his first day...he will be home tonight for the weekend. Then back Sunday evening or Monday morning (depending on how the drive goes this morning!).

QuirkyKidAcademy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 For most of 10yrs, DH has had jobs that took him away during the week. It is hard. You adjust, find a routine, but it is still tough. (((hugs))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harriet Vane Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Are you guys moving at some point, or is this status quo for the duration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 Are you guys moving at some point, or is this status quo for the duration? We are moving. Our plan is to try to try to be moved by next June 1. That will give us time to get the house ready for sale...decide if we want to sell or rent and see what is available in the Tulsa area...as well as see where we want to live in that area. Yeah, we couldn't do this long term. Our friends are already making bets on if we will make it until June or not. :001_huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, though, about the separation and the work that is ahead on housing issues. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annandatje Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Does he have an apartment or a residence hotel where you and your son could commute to Tulsa with him at least once in awhile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truscifi Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 :grouphug: It is tough. We did it for a while thinking we would move, but couldn't sell our house. I hope you have better luck. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 Does he have an apartment or a residence hotel where you and your son could commute to Tulsa with him at least once in awhile? Yes, we have put a deposit on an apt---ready for him to move in Jan 1. And then ds and I can go over there sometimes during the week with him. The next two work weeks (which will both be short because of the holiday) he is staying with a friend of his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't dwell on the (relatively) minor inconvenience now. It'll just make you nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
