Military rules

There are a lot of "rules" if you are military. One being: Get it in writing. Close behind it is: Don't count on it until it happens.

That is our situation here. See if you can follow me here. Specifics are out, but I'll try to give clarity.

We received orders not long ago to go to Location A. We were told that we'd only be there a year, though, and then it'd be on to Location B. However, within days we were informed that after Location A, we'd actually be moving to Location C. And now... we were told today that Location A is being skipped altogether, and here are four choices: you can keep location C, or you can pick Locations D, E, or F.

Aha.

Now, to my hubby, Location D and E were not favorable. Both meant a one-year tour away from us, and seeing how we've been apart for 13 months (just about), he said no way. (That is another post, which I will be making as soon as I'm done with this one.) So it came down to Location C or F.

He chose Location C. Not that it matters to you, lol, as you have NO idea what I'm talking about... lol!

So now our moving dates are changing a bit. We are expecting to be here until early June. Just a two week delay in the plans, so not that big of a deal.

Then again, it could change again. Who knows? Afterall, Locations A, B, and C were in writing, so, honey, don't count on it until it happens.
