Life in Limbo

Have you ever lived in limbo? Where you have no idea where you will be or what you will be doing in a month or 2 months. This has been our life for the past 18 months or more. Some of you are probably thinking that’s the best way to live but we have always had a plan. Even while travelling we have a “unplan plan”. Were we knew roughly where we are going but no idea when. Which is good but we have always had a plan.

Since I became a work widow one thing I have really struggled with is never been able to plan anything. Every swing there is rumours going round that people are getting put off. Then the next swing the rumour is that there is enough work to last 6 more months. 

We try not to get caught up in it all as living in a van we can just pack up and go at anytime. Home is wherever we park it. 

But then if there is 6-12 months work, god it would be nice to be in a house. To be able to lock the boys in a room when they are being naughty and shitting me. To be able to cook in an oven not bbq. To be able to shower and shit without worrying about the boys being locked in the van. To have room. 

To know that for the next 6-12 months we are going to be in the one place and be able to adjust to that. 

At the moment it is month by month. And we seem to be ok, half ok, with living in limbo. 
Take care
