Getting more and more worried

Every single day that is going by I am getting more and more worried about the whole move. It's the first time I am PCS'ing and it's really stressing me out. Not because of us but because of the dogs. I've been telling myself that we will find something and that everything is going to be okay but the housing situation in Drum doesn't sound to good. The Hotel on post reserved us for 45 days in advance. Usually they'd reserve for 30 days but they put us down for 45 days because of the Housing situation.

One thing is for sure, I will not give up any of my dogs, none is going to be sold. Thankfully we can leave them in Germany until we have found a place that accepts all three of them. My mother said that I can leave one with them and take something that allows two and keep looking for one that accepts three and than have the third one shipped over later. But the problem is... who is going to stay?

I know that Indra is going to stay until January. Why? Because she'll be one year old then and is going to be x-rayed for her hips.
That is another thing that is causing stress. What am I supposed to do if she has HD? I know whats going to happen but I don't want to think about it. Nobody wants to think about any of that. I don't think that she has it. Well, you can never tell, some dogs don't show any pain and you can't see any of the signs that indicate that they have it and they have the worst hips ever.
Other dogs look like they have it and they are completely clean. You just never know...

I just hope that we can do all of this. The movers are coming in two weeks, our car will be shipped too. So we'll be without a computer for over a month. I don't know how many times I can check in then. My laptop broke so that doesn't help either.
We've been trying to sell some stuff, like our TV which is not even half a year old but people are so cheap. We want a 1000 bucks for it (almost paid like 2000) but people are not willed to pay that much money. I rather not sell at all instead of selling it for 500 bucks. That is totally unacceptable.

Anyhow, maybe I just worry to much. It's going to be a big step. Even my mother is worried and she doesn't want to think about it and I better don't start about the Greencard at all. We haven't heard anything back yet. I hope we will hear back from them soon because if we don't I have to stay behind.

Just keep in mind that most places have a one year lease minimum. You just can't take a place and think you'll be moving out in a few month after you found a new place. Not the same like in Germany with the 3 month notice.

Oh, that is very good information. I was wondering about the one year lease and if they had the 3 month cancellation policy too.

You should be able to check the status of your Green card application online. We were stateside when I did mine, it took about 2 months to get an interview.

If you're still worried you can get your husbands CoC to send them a letter to expedite the process.

Good luck! (And thanks for reminding me I have to make my own infopass appointment today! argh!)
