Building a Career

Last December (2013), my Husband decided to join the Air Force.



In just over 2 weeks he will leave to start his training: 14 weeks in Quebec, 54 weeks in Ontario (split between two locations).

For most of his training, if not all, he will be living in separate quarters than myself and our two children (ages 2 and 4). Though I will miss his annoying sweet ways, I am fondly looking forward to the challenge of being a temporary single-mama (I'm not sure if there's a Military term out there for these periods of time) and handling just regular parent activities without going crazy, managing our budget, our food menu, and the house on my own.

I've already set up a tentative appointment with a financial specialist to make sure our budget is in line and/or find ways to improve our budget in his absence.

For over a year now I've been working with a dietician on improving our families daily meals, learning to create a well-balanced meal, creating a meal plan, and much, much more.

I'll be busy these next two weeks in making sure he's all ready to be sent off, Easter celebrations, and ensuring that our families get as much time as possible with him before he leaves, but stay-tuned for the chaos Awesomeness, of doing it all on my own, that's sure to come!
