I know you all won't believe this but I was telling Sara that I finally feel comfortable living in Utah and I don't want to leave. I had a conversation with Keith the other night about the possibility of him working from home and....staying. He said no. He doesn't want to be here. The problem is...he hasn't made the friends that I've made.

I still keep hoping that Congress will not allow the Constellation project to be cancelled and that we'll be here for a while longer. That the show will go on and our lives will stay the same. I've told you before that I have this fear of the unknown....our apple cart is tipping and I can't keep it from happening.
Yesterday on twitter I saw a tweet from a gal that works Constellation in TX...she actually works for N.ASA and she was panicked. You see, the Project Manager for Constellation was fired yesterday. His crime was *going rogue* and trying to support the project and he became a lightening rod for controversy.

I think I'm starting to understand why American's
This event caused quite a ruckas. Soon after Lockhead announced they would be letting go of 20% of their workforce next week. The end is near....
This event also shook up our household. The ship is sinking and we don't have enough buckets to bail the water. It took two bottles of red wine but I finally got Keith to agree to a plan of action. A plan that will hopefully return us to Denver. If we have to go anywhere...I'd rather go home.
Home......
Luckily...I have something exciting to keep my mind off from our lives being shook up. On Saturday night...I'm *going rogue* and I'm joining my partner's in crime in the kidnapping of Jessica Bern. She is speaking at a blogging conference in Salt Lake and The Three Musketeers (me, Bobbi and Chris) are snatching her from her hotel and we're going to look for some trouble. I'm bringing the video camera.....
The reason that this is really exciting is that Jessica is famous. She is a comedian and has appeared in many TV shows and commercials. I'm pretty sure we'll end up in next week's US WEEKLY right next to an article about why Kendra isn't wearing her wedding ring.
That reminds me...Bobbi, don't forget to alert the paparazzi.
Oh good Lord, be careful! Don't get arrested, your sweet children need you :)
ReplyDeleteSrsly - best of luck to you and Keith. I know the uncertainty can be at best unnerving, but you will be alright, and when you look back from somewhere in the future, you will see this just as a step that brought you to where you are :) Hugs!
I am right there with you....we don't know where to go, what to do so I guess we'll carry on as we are.
ReplyDeleteI've really started to enjoy my life here, too. 3.5 years ago we were sounding very different!
Have fun this weekend!
oh lady...what a bummer! i saw your tweets last night...i hope everything works out for you!! you guys are in my prayers!! have fun this weekend going rogue! haha!!!
ReplyDeleteMy friend I've told you about works for Lockheed in Houston. She was on the Constellation project. She has already been reorg'd, but they didn't let her go, at least not yet. She's been there a long time.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry Connie. The uncertainty is always so frightening. I hope you can take comfort in the fact that God has a plan for you.
ReplyDeleteAnd on a lighter note, have fun this weekend! :)
I am sorry your family is in such a turmoil. I will keep you all in my prayers. I hope you get to return to Denver. I know you love it there.
ReplyDeleteBe careful--don't get arrested!
Ugh- I know all too well to be sitting in uncertainty!! The ONLY thing that got me through it was trusting that God has a plan and you have to have faith that he will bring you through it. Every time I felt anxious, I took a deep breath and blew it out, asking God to take it from me. Try it.....

Sorry about all the uncertainly - STRESSFUL!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to watch your video - sounds hilarious!
Connie, what are you doing? So now we're all accomplices?!? You plan to kidnap Jessica Bern, you tell us; what are we supposed to do with this information? Sit on it?? What if things go horribly awry? I mean, it sounds like a Vince Vaughn movie, and a pretty hysterical one at that, but how can we be sure? Be careful out there.
ReplyDeleteI hope everything works out for you Connie. I am sure the uncertainty can be difficult. Fingers crossed for you.
