It is Monday August 2, 2010. A beginning to a week of answers, or will it bring more questions? We are waiting to hear about orders to Pensacola. Will we stay or will we go? The butterflies started this morning, as Mike works nights right now we don't get any news until he goes into work. He has been told that he will get an email if he gets the orders. He will definitely know by this Friday. Right before our 13th wedding Anniversary.
13 Years! WOW, where does the time go. There have been good times and bad, as there are with any marriage. There have been struggles and there have been days of perfection. Ones that you wish you could on replay over and over again. I am not one of superstition but I am wondering what 13 is going to bring for us. I guess you could say these orders (if Mike is chosen) could lay the foundation for our final years in the Navy. Mike will have to make Chief within the next two cycles or he will retire as a 1st class, being forced out because of highyear tenure. It's not a bad thing, but course we all know, it's all about the money! :) Raising 4 kid's is not cheap that is for sure. When it is all over there will be days I miss. The itch to move is in me now, so when it comes time to really settle down, well I just wonder how hard it will be.
For now I guess the butterflies will continue this week, the uncertanity is always the worse part. There is so much to do and we know that whether it is this cycle or the next we will definately have orders somewhere, the only question? One word.....
WHERE?
