Well, as I mentioned a few weeks ago, change is in the air for our family. My husband has been accepted into the twelve month MBA program at the Richard Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario.  It has been a long time coming as he has been studying for the GMAT (Graduate Management Admissions Test), and then travelling to write the test, and then filling out applications to Ivey, doing interviews with Ivey, and then the anxious nine days of waiting to hear if he was accepted.  Those of you who knew we have been waiting on this have my eternal gratitude for not kicking me in the teeth because of my constant uptightness in the past week.  It’s amazing my brain didn’t melt and leak out my ears from all the energy being created by my frazzled psyche. 

Anyway, now that we know, we can start the stressful chaos of selling our house and moving to a completely new place. You, my faithful readers, can expect many cranky and whiny posts in the future about all the work of packing/cleaning/selling/moving/being a single parent (the hubby will likely go out several weeks, if not a month ahead of me and the kids).  I apologize in advance for this. 

After the move I will probably collapse into a weepy puddle when I really hits me that I am without a single friend in a strange place where my husband will be extremely busy and I have two small children and people mispronounce “pants’ as “pay-ants”, so that will be fun, right?

So I will hope for cheery and encouraging comments from you all.  I will defend my prairie homeland to the best of my ability while residing in this foreign land of rock and trees.  Stay tuned for more information.  Ivey has two programs running simultaneously and we have yet to firmly decide whether we will go for the May or the September start date.

Oh yes, and did I mention how very proud I am of the hubby and how much totally deserves this after how hard he has worked? Because I am and he does and he did.
