Shitty, shitty day!

[bananapancakes]

L was an absolute beast today thanks to a combination of his third tooth coming through, still not being adjusted to DLS, and the beginning of separation anxiety. He's usually such a happy guy but he spent most of the day crying unless my boob was in his mouth. We had the Christmas mini photo shoot this morning and although she assured me that she got good shots, he cried off and on through that as well.

I finally got him to bed, sat down with my tea and a brownie and then H called to give me some bad news. He is supposed to be coming home on November 25 but just found out today that his training has been extended by 8 weeks. In response to the shooting that took place on parliament hill in Ottawa a few weeks ago, the RCMP wants to beef up their presence in the capital and they are going to do it with newly trained cadets. Instead of flying home with us after his graduation, he will be flying straight to Ottawa and we'll be flying home without him. 8 more weeks without him. I'm absolutely devastated.

Shit. I want to cry for you. Huge hugs.

[bowies]

Oh BP I'm so sorry. I'm angry/sad for you.

[matildasun]

I am sorry. I know you have been really looking forward to him coming home. Does this change your plans for moving?

[yellowbrkrd]

Oh hun, I'm so sorry.

We still haven't figured that out. We have to be out of this house by November 30 and were relying on the RCMP's relocation agency to deal with the move but now that might not happen until he's done with these 8 weeks. I don't know where I'm going to go or what I'm going to do.

[brooklyn]

Oh no! I'm so sorry. sending you so many hugs.

[bananapancakes]

[ohgillian]

That sounds so stressful. I hope it all falls into place for you.

[sporklemotion]

OMG. This must be so, so hard. Hope something works out easily with your housing, at least.

[hilwithonelary]

I am so so sorry. (((bananapancakes)))

[chickadee77]

Oh, man. I was excited *for* you for him to come home - I had to do 3-4 weeks solo during L's first three months, and you were my inspiration! Can you go amd spend some holiday time with him, at least? (((hugs)))

[rugbywife]

Sorry banana, the delay sucks.

[sunshine608]

I'm sorry BP. Hugs!

[Brie]

Oh God. I'm so sorry. That really sucks.

[spanikopita]

I'd be devastated as well. so sorry.

[bananapancakes]

Like I don't even know where I'm going to live. We were all set to move to the city near his new office but now he won't be starting there until February. Do I move there on my own? I know no one there and it's farther from my inlaws (but slightly closer to my parents). We don't even know if they will still orchestrate the move at the end of the month or not until February. I can't handle a move by myself with a baby. This is craziness!

[Willis Jackson]

OMG. I'm so sorry.
