Catch-22

You all know that I want more than anything for hubby to come home. As soon as possible. But, I knew what day he was coming home, and I knew the dates for our leave period. They had confirmed them yesterday. So with that knowledge I had researched and booked airfare and our hotel room. I called and told my family we were coming!
Now I get an email saying the ship might "tentatively" come back 5 days sooner. And should this happen, leave dates would change. You know, the leave I just bought 4 plane tickets for?!

Do I cry from happiness or from frustration?? I would love to have hubby home early. But I also don't want to have to spend more money to change the dates.

What is that line from the Anchorman movie?

"I am trapped in box of emotions!" (I think thats pretty close, if its something different let me know and I will fix it...)

But thats how I feel, just like Will Ferrel. And I don't know if thats a good thing, look what the Navy has done to me!

Oh my, I understand your frustration. I don't know whether to cry with you, or be happy for you. I'll just pray that everything works out!

I've never seen "Anchor Man," but I'd say the sentiment sounds about right :) I hope you break out of the box soon!
