We all know soldier pay isn't the greatest. In s. germany we have been on the waiting list since feb. for a 4 bdrm. apt. unit on post. Finally got the "good news" call along w/ something unexpected (i.e., just b.c. wifey is having a 3rd child does not entitle one to move up from a 3 bdrm. to a 4 bdrm. on the neighboring post at government cost). So my husband viewed the apt. today, was informed he had until 3 pm to decide yay/nay (after seeing the quarters at 11 am), has to fund the move himself (w/ the euro the move will be anywhere between $2k-$4k) + only has 3 days to do it. We would love to do it (however, I am nearing 8 mos. preg. at the end of this month and have to also care for my hyperactive 3 year old son and thankfully "normal" 5 year old daughter--plus I have some issues w/ organization + am very small so can't lift heavy things, not to mention the pregnancy. Always been between 98lbs-102lbs when not pregnant and have sticks for arms) on our own, but he had to fight
