Jerry received his duty post assignment and it looks like we'll be moving to Germany in a few months! Or Kansas. There's a little bit of confusion on this, but we're about 90% sure that it's going to be Germany. And I really couldn't be happier. It's been a dream of mine to return to Germany after a brief trip there in high school. I love the language and look forward to learning it better. We're both excited to have such a great opportunity opening up in front of us. Though, of course, we're bummed that our post assignment isn't bringing us closer to Elyssa (for now). Hopefully it'll be an opportunity for Elyssa to come and see another country or at least for us to plan a kickass vacation together :)
Right now, it looks like Jerry's report day will be mid-May, so just a few more months. And we know that he'll be graduating on March 14 from his MOS training. I'm looking forward to going to the ceremony. Right now, I'm looking forward to seeing him for an extended weekend in just a few days.
This separation has been hard on me, even though I've been lucky enough to see my Jerry Giant every few weeks. Knowing where we're going to be and having an idea of when we'll be living together again has done a lot to lift my spirits. It's nice to feel excited about something!
Wow! Germany - that IS exciting!!
