I found out that John is deploying again at the end of the year. Which sucks, but hey it is the Army. They pushed it up 4 months, it was supposed to be in Feb 2012. I am unhappy with it because I feel that this may push him into a really deep depression.
I am considering moving while he is gone. I like the house and the lake, but it is really isolated and far away from my job and the friends I am trying to make. I thought about Portland, as my bff Christina lives there and I should be able to transfer Paneras and work there. When I mentioned it online though, it made John's family & friends go into a frenzy about how he will have to pay for 2 places. It seems that my job doesn't count and I just live off of him. Then he & I got into it about money, because it seems we have none and he cannot figure out why. Even though the reason is simple: we just spent a ton of it. He got the new double oven (which is shiny), he bought me a laptop for christmas (which I needed if I want to go to school), we spend a lot on gas and now we have a water and homeowner fees bill due. So we fought about it this morning, which was the longest conversation we have had in months and now hopefully we will work together and get things back on track. Not just financially, but with the marriage.
