These past couple days have been tough on the waiting part.  Im just nervous.  Where has my confidence gone?

When I initially had my consultation with my attorney I left feeling really confident because with the knowledge I had shared with her she let me know that everything sounded good and she believed that the case would be simple and a judge or commissioner would easily permit the move. 

We met again and went over all the information for the case and in turn she finished my documents and I got them sent out in a timely manner right on schedule.  After sending them out I felt great!  Then time crept up and I just keep getting more nervous as the days pass.

I recieved documents from the other party, late.  Way late.  They were also filed late, a day late, and we even had the schedule for filing the documents ordered by the commissioner from the inital hearing. 

Upon opening and reviewing documents it is clear that this other party is grasping at anything possible.  Well the documents the other party submitted don't equal out.  There is definitely conflicting information, and I was finding it hard to understand why anyone would submit conflicting information to a case as important as you would think this on is.

So..... these past few days, inching closer and closer to the hearing date I am nervous.  I keep second guessing if I have taken care of everything that is necessary to be prepared for the day.  I have.  I am completely prepared.  My cousin often jokes that the commissioner is going to look at my VERY thorough submissions and say, "this B**** is crazy".  Cracks me up every time.  Today even, while we were at our EUC mandatory meeting at work source we were joking about getting all of my court documents printed (I have finished already)  and wondering if they had a 3 hole punch (seems so excessive to purchase one, yet at the same time when you really need one, it would be nice to have). 

Well the hearing date is on next Tuesday.  I have filed my response, everything at this point aside from showing up to the hearing is out of my control.  I am hoping that I can keep my mind occupied and positive. I can keep telling myself that I am fully prepared and I have got my S*** in order.  I have not taken this decision lightly, I am ready, I have researched, and it will definitely be a good thing.  Though, I realize there is a great chance for the move to be denied, therefore I am trying not to get my hopes up too much. 

Here's to hope.....
