Over at Magic Cookie, CM and Janine and I have a little comments conversation going on that basically boils down to, “Hey! I’m stressed!”
Janine, specifically, used the word “tetchy.” And I am so glad she did, because that is exactly how I am feeling right now. And most of yesterday. And last week. Tetchy. That sums it up nicely.
It’s not just about the waiting—which sucks, but I’ve dealt with waiting before. No, there’s something about this whole process that has thrown me for a loop. Not only are we going back to school, but we’re also planning to uproot our lives—yet we don’t even know exactly how that’s going to play out! Even once we make a decision, we still have to sell our house. We still have to find an apartment somewhere in the city we’re moving to. We have get rid of some of our things, leave our jobs, take out loans, and the weight of all of it is driving me crazy.
I’m glad to know I’m not the only one. I just wish none of us were going through it.
