On Friday the 5th we went to check if we got any of our five choices that we put in for orders.
We didn't get any of them... not a single one.
The detailer (aka "bearer of bad news guy") gave us an opportunity to call and request a few more choices over the phone on the next Friday. He said he could give us an "informal" yes/no right then, so we wouldn't have to wait for the application process this go-around because we didn't have time to do that. If the orders we asked for were denied we would no longer have any choices and would just go where they want us to. So, we looked, prayed, and stewed over the list of orders that came out on Thursday the 11th and came up with a list of three options that would be the best for us.... All of that was absolutely pointless.
Again, we didn't get any of our choices!
Now? We wait. Until next Friday, of course (it's always a waiting game with the military)
To see where they (whoever that is...) will be sending us.
Let's pray that it's somewhere good and Sean won't be doing a crazy job that keeps him away from home a lot.....
