AN OFFER I HAVE TO REFUSE

March 2nd, 2010

Yesterday, my man received orders for a one-year remote tour to Korea. This will be the 2nd time. Only reason being is that his time is up here in Vegas, and he doesn’t want the military telling him where to go. So the only way to get around it is by going to Korea.

His parents want me and the girls to stay with them for a year, so that we can save money. I had to decline the offer. >.< They are in KY and have a house in NC. Now they have another proposal for me. They’re asking if I wouldn’t mind staying at their house at NC to take care of it. Rent will be free and I won’t have to pay for utilities. It sounds very tempting, but I might have to decline this offer as well.

I’ve made plans already. We have an apartment near an elementary school in a nice neighborhood; grocery stores and other retail stores, as well as the mall, are just minutes away; and my college is near too. I would love to save money, but money isn’t everything. I’m sick and tired of moving. I just want to stay kaput. I don’t know anyone in NC. What the heck am I going to do there? At least here in Vegas, I know a few people. I have friends who will come visit, because it’s Vegas. I would feel better being here while my man is gone for a whole year. And if he really wants to save money, then I wouldn’t mind moving back to CO to the apartment I once lived in. We will save some money doing that. Plus, I have family there too.

I told my man that I’ll think about it. He won’t be leaving till the end of this year, anyway.
