4 schools and counting...

So we have been accepted to 4 schools out of the 8 at this point. However I am still feeling anxiety but on a different level. Now we have the options that are asking for seat deposits and intents to enroll. I think now that we have so many options it might make it harder to decide where to go. Every school he choose was a good school so that are all good educations however where to live and when to move are still BIG questions that need to be answered. However I still have to send out graduation announcements and continue on my regular chores. I cant wait for this month and next to be over. I am hoping that however it will go by fast and we will have a decision soon enough!

First Acceptance!!

We got a call today letting us know that he was accepted today! They said when they want someone they dont want to make them wait! 1 down and 7 to go!!

Apps Are Done and submitted

So at the beginning of the week all 8 applications were submitted. Now we just have to wait and see what comes in the mail. I am pretty nervous but he seems to be calm cool and collected. He is confident that he will get into a school around here so we probably will stay. I already have a job and friends and family so it makes alot of sense to stay here. Although if this snow and cold continue I might just change my mind. It has been a long and stressful process but it is finally done. So if we get a thin envelope then we know it is not a good sign. However if we receive a big packet then he got in. 2-3 weeks better go by quickly so I can stop wondering. I am so ready about finally starting this next chapter in our lives that we have been preparing for over the last 3 years. I am ready to move on from this lifestyle and getting through year 1. We have saved money so at least we will be able to get real furniture and make a place our own. Work has been crazy so I am hoping that it will keep my mind off the wondering and I can start to get excited!

Counting the days...

So I was reading a blog the other day from another law school wife and it got me thinking. She talked about support systems and how important they are when you have someone that counts on you. So I started thinking that even though I am nervous about moving again to another city where I don't know anyone I need to support my husband and go where he will succeed.

With that being said I am now counting the days. We have had some challenging times recently and I am ready to get out and be on our own. However this time it will be different because it will serve a much greater purpose. With that being said I am excited to finally purchase some real furniture and be near our nephew's and niece.

So here's to the warm weather and no snow! I am keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes through!

Back to blogging..

OK so I know that noone reads my blog but I think that it is time to get back to it for myself. Well we finally decided our 10 schools and did the financial aid. We are really excited because we might be moving to Florida and getting out of the snow. I am happy because I am really tired of the cold. Like for instance today is what is referred to as the "snowpocalypse" because we are offically getting a blizzard. It is gusting to 50mph winds and I have also decided that I am going to take pics of everything we do so that I can post pics to my posts. Here are two to see how it was earlier in the evening and then around 9pm you could almost not see the top of the truck because of the snow drifting..

Just another day!

Today actually turned out pretty good. I printed the top 25 law schools out and then I choose the top 5 out of those then I will research the areas that the schools are in to see about the areas, the economy, the jobs. I want him to apply to somewhere not only where he wants to go but to a place where I might not have a too difficult time finding a job. On a side note I have realized a long time ago that I have a problem with the television. I don't have really many shows that I follow but I always tell myself that I will turn it off and do my homework but somehow I always find something on that takes my interest and I don't get much done. So I am off to try to get a chapter read so that I am not too far behind since we are going to Milwaukee this weekend. In the blog I have recently started following she talks about countdowns and I have realized that this time next year we will be getting ready to move to where he gets accepted and I am very nervous and I am so excited. I am ready to get ahead and because I don't like anticipation I want to go now! I think I could really get used to this blogging thing even if no one reads it but me.

My First Post

Hello to my blog. I don't have anyone reading this yet but I found a new blog about being a law school wife and it really got me thinking that I should really start documenting this journey because we have had birthdays out of the way and now we look forward towards the end of the year. We have some fun things planned till then but I am already started to think about graduation and everything that comes with it. Steve already took the LSAT however he wasn't happy with his grade so he is taking it again in October then we can finally find out where we are going to end up. I have mixed emotions about this but I am starting little by little to get excited. I just got a new job and that is taking a lot of my nerves busy but I feel like I am getting it. I promise that I will continue to blog even if no one ever reads it. It is kind of nice because I can just type and I don't have to worry that I am talking and Steve is not listening. Well off to bed but I will visit this tomorrow.
