What to do with our life

For those of you who keep Sarah and I in your hearts and prayers, I thought I would share my burden of late. I am struggling to find what it is that is the next big step for our family. I have one year until I have completed my master's degree. At that point, we have many potential "select-a-quest" options to choose.

1) New career??? - I recently found out that my company will be again restructuring my department which may mean that I need to find a new career quickly. It is entirely up in the air right now. Additionally, my education is in a different direction than my current career is going.

2) New home??? - We are nearing completion of the remodeling projects on the home and are not sure if we should buy, rent, or live in a van down by the river.

3) New city??? - Do we want to settle in KC longer-term or relocate? We do not have some plan yet, but we should ask the question.

4) New family member??? - Nothing to report as of yet, but there is a fair likelihood that a mini-us with enter the picture in the not incredibly distant future.

5) New hobby??? - The least of my worries, yet I have so many interests and so little time....

I have tried the Magic 8 ball, and it is a little, lying round freak. The cat is not much help either.

As a husband and future father, I feel a tremendous burden to make decisions to protect my family. I also do not want to make decisions based on what I am fearful may happen. So on a daily basis I feel a bit like a man who is channel surfing in the back of my mind, and I keep coming to different versions of C-SPAN. It's stressful, complicated, and there are not a lot of easy answers.

So... hmmm... yep...
