I've been where you are now - in a situation where my future was very uncertain, except to compound the issue, I also have a kid I had to keep in school. We lived for almost a year in a hotel.

Then I found a cheap rental.. The house is a junker, but in a good neighborhood. All was sorta-OK until the owner decided to sell, and didn't take my offer, went with another offer - and we're having to move again. In a week.

I have arranged to move into a house not two doors away, BUT the woman living there, who was supposed to be out on the 15th, is still there - no signs of her moving and we have only a few more days to be out.

But I know, and my emotional set-point is one of excitement. Not desperation. So deep inside I know something great is about to happen... what - I can't see.. but it's right here and about to happen!

The last time I had to move I was in a spiral of desperation, and the result wasn't good.

So, take judge45's advice, and get that emotion turned around some how, some way.

I find mediation really can work, but so can a bunch of really funny DVDs. While cleaning out a box, I happened across a VHS of some Tex Avery cartoons which still get me howling with laughter... and my emotional setpoint rises way up there!
