We went and talked to the recruiter today to find out how long Steve's tech school will be. 6 weeks! 6 short weeks. That makes me so happy!
So he leaves March 22nd, goes to basic for 8.5 weeks, then straight to tech school (on the same base) for 6 weeks! So he should be done in the beginning of July, and then we'll know where we are moving to! Hooray! I'll only be all by lonesome for 3.5 months! And Stephanie has agreed to have the occasional sleepover! :)
We got a list of all the bases where his job exists, and Langley is on it! I'm going to hope and pray my very hardest that he gets Langley. I hope you too will pray that we get Langley. I'll have all my fingers and toes crossed.
You know what else is on the list? Alaska. Freaking Alaska. I will cry so hard if we get Alaska. I'm tired of the cold.
North Dakota is thankfully not on the list.
His dream list is going to consist of warm places.
1. Virginia (my parents live here)
2. California (my aunt lives here)
3. South Carolina (close to my parents)
4. Hawaii (paradise!)
5. Nevada (it's warm. and there's vegas!)
6. Utah (I'd be okay with staying here)
There really aren't too many on the list that I'd hate. My country might be screwed up, but I really don't want to go overseas. I don't want Alaska, Oklahoma, Nebraska or Arkansas either though.
He's signed up for 6 years. Assuming the world doesn't end next year, we'll reassess in 2018 if he's staying in or not. 2018 hahahaha that number sounds so futuristic. (Or is that just me?)
