Time to move on

Things are very crazy and stressful around here, and it is getting worse everyday. I have decided to start looking at my options some more as far as leaving the AGR program, going into a civillian goverment job, going into a civillian job, just transfering to a local realignment, fighting for a PCS move to Ft. Stewart, GA. At this point, I am seriously considering giving the kids to their father when he gets back from deployment, at least for a year or two - would have to take them back if he deployed, obviously, can't leave them with their stepmother, they are not hers. I know I love my kids, I know I love my military career, but right now my career is not making me happy. I think doing a tour somewhere else, preferably close to the kids father - joint custody does wonders - will give me a real idea of wether being a full time soldier is really right for me or if I am trying to do too much too soon as a single mother. But my experience at this unit is not a true litmus test of the AGR program or my odds of success in the AGR program. Regardless, I need to get a good family care plan worked out now that I fired my "nanny" babysitter. That is a requirement regardless of what I do as long as I wear the uniform in any status.
