As I have whined,bitched,cried,about , mentioned, the Man-of-My-Dreams is going to leave and work out of the country.
In Kazakhstan, as a matter of fact.
He leaves tomorrow. As in, less than 36 hours!
I am not impressed, neither is he...
But this job will be a good thing for our family.
He will be home every-other month, so he'll actually only be gone for 6 months working over the course of the year.
But.... BUT.... he's gonna be really REALLY far away!
In an attempt to freak out a little less, I have compiled a list of pro's and con's for this out of the country venture.
Lets see what I came up with...
And please! feel free to add your own.
Pro's about the Man-of-My-Dreams working out of the country.
1.) Career advancement.
2.) More income = can get some much-needed home improvements done.
3.) I hear frequent-flier miles are a good thing.
4.) I'll get the chance to surprise him with my weight-loss each time he comes home and see's the change. (I'm down 60lbs as of yesterday by the way! in less than three months! whoo hoooo!)
5.) We will save water! I will spend MUCH less time in the shower, if I don't shave my legs.
And... Why do I need to shave my legs if he isn't home? huh?
6.) I will be the one driving the truck!
7.) I will cook more Asian and fru fru meals. (NOT something he enjoys)
8.) I will control the remote!
Con's
1.) I will have no way to warm my cold feet. His warm feet work wonderful for this!
2.) I will have frizzy, limp & lifeless hair! Because there is no way I can rinse the conditioner out of my hair in the shower as well as he does!
3.) I'll have to schmoosh the spiders by myself!
4.) I'll be parenting solo... Without my Tag-Team partner.
5.) Paris, the love-struck cow, won't listen to me like she does him.. (her boyfriend)
6.) Who will remember it's trash day on trash day?!?
7.) I will actually have to get off my butt and fold the laundry by myself.
8.) I will miss him terribly.
*sigh*
THIS is gonna be interesting....
