about my grandmother and her care. My uncle told Mike and I this morning that they (they being my dad, uncle and aunts), made a decision yesterday. To be honest it was shocking. Oma is going into a home on Wednesday morning. I knew that this was coming, but I thought that I would have a week or two to adjust to the news, and emotionally prepare myself.
I am tired and ready for a change, but with that change comes mixed emotions. Caring for her has been harder than I ever thought it would be, and it has come to a point where I just can't keep her happy...unless Mike is home. I hope that the Legacy Village can provide something that I am not able to.
I have cried off and on all day, both for my grandmother and out of self-pity. I really want to live in Fort Worth near my family and FAR away from Wisconsin, but that once again means leaving friends. I left Sara in Wisconsin, and now I am leaving everyone here. That part sucks, but I guess it is all part of the grand plan. We have been greatly blessed by moving here. Mike has a better job...making more money, I got to leave the frozen hated tundra...Wisconsin, no more drama with Mike's family and most of all we were able to get pregnant.
Over all it has been a great experience!! Would I do it again? I think I would.
Above all else...

Change is hard but you handle it pretty darn well. Enjoy your last weeks here with us. We will miss you BUT we will always have blogging. :)
