All the questions

It's funny how quickly the path you're on can change.  I went from being excited about our adventure to mourning.  I went from thinking this would be a great experience for my family-- eager to get started on a once-in-a-lifetime-opportunity to wondering how I am going to keep my family close while separated by 6,000 miles, an ocean, and a 17 hour time difference.

And through all of this are all the questions.  You can stop reading now.  I'm using this as a tool to clear my mind.

Home

  1. Where are K and I going to live?  I think Phoenix would be best-- I would have the most support, but I don't think I could move our home into my parent's home.
  2. How/when am/are I/we going to move?
  3. How do we divide up our things so that we both can have a functioning home in our separate homes?
  4. How do we afford to run two homes?  How do we budget for groceries and cell phones and cars/gas?
Other Random
  1. Are we still selling his car?  My car? If we decide to keep his car where will I keep it?  If we're not selling my car I need to get new tires. 
  2. Am I going to get to visit the Mr?  Where will we stay?  How often will we get to see each other?
  3. We were planning on a vow renewal ceremony in Hawaii, but I'd rather spend Christmas together.  
  4. Do I get a job?  Do I got back to school?  What are my goals for the time we are apart?
  5. How do we ensure we have family/bonding time?
At least now this stuff isn't bouncing around in my head anymore.
