One Week in Louisville

We have officially been in Louisville for one week...and I don't really know how exactly I feel about that.

I know that I don't have a choice to be here, so I need to be okay with it, so I guess that is how I feel.

This week several things occurred that were difficult:
*our Missouri home closed and the new owner took possession
*my friends all went back to work...where I would have been if we hadn't moved...where I have been going for the past ten years
I knew the first would be hard.  The second?  I thought I would feel relief.  Instead I felt a sense of loss.  They are moving on without me, which is the way it should be, but still...

I met my Kentucky obgyn, and she is very similar to my Kansas City one, which is great because I loved that doctor!

Claire started school this week as well, leaving me with hours during the day to fill.  I love to feel productive and I want to feel like I am contributing to my family's finances, so here is what I have been working on:
*I applied for an online tutoring job.  I have a second interview tomorrow.
*I have been working on my YouTube channel as well as this and another blog, with the hopes that one day I could maybe make some money
*Using opinion outpost and swagbucks to earn gift cards
*Working on my Cat Facts Facebook page (hey, you never know where an opportunity to make some moula will arise)

Also, I have been utilizing apps that will help me save money when I shop.  These apps are ibotta, shopkicks, and ebates (not an app, a website).  So far I have saved $2.20 by doing virtually nothing.  Not much, I realize, but it's something.

Claire has been adjusting well to school and Chris seems to enjoy having us here with him.  Truly, I am the one struggling the most with the transition.  I feel a little lost and I don't really know what to do with myself.  I have some plans for the upcoming week, and I will keep you posted as things develop.
