Decisions *UPDATE in purple*

[liz1986]

 We have decided to get Tim out of the Army. The process will take a couple of months so we're going to start saving now. At least we'll have his bonus money he's supposed to be getting this month (which we will eventually have to pay back, but at least we'll have it now). And the Army's gonna help him look for a job during his outprocessing paperwork so maybe he'll find something. I know this is what's best for the health of my husband but I'm scared we're not gonna have somewhere to live, no money, and we're gonna be right back where we started before he enlisted, and that's terrifying for me. I'm worried about the well being of my kids. If it were just me and him I wouldn't give a f***, but I have two boys to think of.

Of course, I'm so happy I'll be back home with my friends and family but I didn't want to return to them under these circumstances. It's embarrassing to go back knowing we failed AGAIN. Another attempt lost.

Will we ever get on track???

Right now, I wish I could back in time and wait to have my babies. I would wait till Tim and I knew what we were doing. I'm not saying I wish I didn't have kids, I just wish I could give them a stable lifestyle without all the drama.

I feel sick.....

So after a lot of discussions and prayer, we've decided for him to stay in. He's going to get on anti-depressants and see a psychologist. I'm going to start seeing one too. He's also going to put in papers for a compassionate relocation to get us back to Texas. Hopefully Fort Hood or Fort Sam. So prayers everyone!

Good for you guys.  I think the kids will be happy as long as they have mommy & daddy. They grow up so fast and as long as you all can be together I think everything else will fall into place.

Even though you are stressing about moving back home and facing everyone, this will soon pass. We have all gotten into situations of embarrassment and we have lived through it. I think maybe go ahead and start letting people know that you are coming back and maybe they can help find you a place to live within the next few months.  Keep me posted.... take care
