OptomisticGirl Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Vic - that's basically the reason behind our decision. At the end of the day it was us weighing possibly prolonging the move here if we waited to see the changes vs what option would get us to each other quicker. And moving out in hopefully 59 days wasn't a bad consultation price. Renny - yes. When we get to the income stage my mon is willing to be a joint sponsor. But since I only miss the income level for 2 people by 1K if we can show L has $3,000 in savings we can actually drop my mom and just use ourselves. The same job, no. But I'm looking into going back to school at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civilservant Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Are you guys sure you don't want to at least try the uk visa process? Yes we are positive. We've discussed this at length for months. Its the best option for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 WheRE are you guys gonna live? I'm looking at a apartment complex (which is more houses split into 2 apartments) that are right accross the road from my job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fudgie Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Half houses like that tend to be a bit roomy (depending on the house). I am jelly of you, lol. I will be in a small 1 bedroom, tiny kitchen, all that. I think you guys will really enjoy the room that you get and so will Jasper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Vic - I'm looking at becoming an ultrasound tech. Looking into it right now. Fudgie - jelly? Lol, that's an awesome auto correct! My co worker who lives there bought me a post card with a picture of the kitchen on it - I love it! A window right over the sink, what I love.

OptomisticGirl Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 It doesn't pay bad either. The school I'd have to go to is about 30 mins away but since I'll be within walking distance of work I can afford that distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphim Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Yeah I think the average pay here is about $47,000 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 That's about it here, between $40,000-$50,000 and more in some cases. For Myrtle Beach I think the average is $55,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 I am so exhuasted. Like physically exhuasted. We are having an issue at work and we are having to do everything when we didn't before - it's time consuming. So much so every day someone from first as to stay until 7 or 8 and help second shift out and on the weekends someone has to come in and help first. It's so exhausting - I can't say that enough. Thankfully it's not forever, it's only until the end of this month. I started painting this thing for the bathroom last night and I'm not like the pattern. It was white, blue, and yellow (striped) - it's this thing that holds my perfumes, lotions, etc - so I painted the stripes dark purple and gray and I'm not fond of it. I'm fond of the colours but I was going to keep certain areas on it white - maybe it's the white that's not jiving with me. I'll fiddle with it some more.

OptomisticGirl Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 My best friend has a hedgehog as a pet. To some this would be strange - as her best friend, it's not to me. I think the fact I don't find it strange is concerning in itself, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrose85 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hedgehogs are great I am so happy for you both. Nesting is in sight!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 I didn't even think you could have them as a pet. They are illegal to own in my state but apparently not in every state? She sent me a pic - I admit, it's freaking adorable. Nesting has already started. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrose85 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 ultrasound tech has always been one of those Plan B’s for me. It always seems so interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OptomisticGirl Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 I over slept for work this morning - MAJORLY over slept, by like 2 hours. I remember the alarm at 9 am waking me up and I remember cutting it off. Apparently after that I put my head back down and the next thing I knew I was waking up. And I instantly had that feeling when you know you've over slept, looked at the clock and yep - 11:17. Was due into work at 11. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 So after over sleeping I get all the way home and realize I have the work truck keys in my pocket. *facepalm* Cue the 25 min drive BACK to work just to bring the keys back. I'll be glad when I forget to leave them I can just walk accross the freaking road and take them back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fudgie Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 You two should take a little gun safety course and learn how to shoot a gun once you're both here. It's actually great fun! I don't own any guns myself (my dad does) and I can't legally hunt right now because you need a license for that, but I like shooting at shooting ranges and practice shooting at targets. That doesn't require any license and you can have someone there show you how to properly use and clean a gun. My favourite are the shotguns. Really, nothing feels anything like it!
