I hope you'll be able to...Oh, I'm so sorry! I hope you'll be able to stay, but I know that stress is not easy to live with. My husband's job controls our lives, too. We've had one move to a place I hated for 3.5 years, (it was only supposed to be 3- I was counting- and then, they FORGOT about him. His name literally dropped off the move list. Luckily we noticed, and pitched a fit on my side/contacted the right people on his side, and 6 months later we finally got our move... to England. Which has been AMAZING. Also supposed to be 3 years, up this October- and now his new job wants him there in Sept. It's only a month, but I feel robbed! <br />Anyway, that was all to tell you that I have no helping words, no advice, just a "I know how much this sucks, believe me." We haven't been in your exact situation, but moving at the whim of an entity that doesn't seem to take actual individuals' lives into account is NOT EASY. Hang in there, make the best of the time you have now (if you can), and I'll keep hoping for the best.Gescihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543798912886827648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3989837755018110330.post-91227889904604411032012-07-13T09:32:19.958+04:002012-07-13T09:32:19.958+04:00Thank you everyone!

I was suppose to start a new project in Mozambique in February, where my fiance would move over, but that got cancelled and then got offered Guinea with the (empty) promise of my fiance joining me here. It sucks! I know!
