Sometimes it is easier to not have a choice for all the reasons that you listed. lol<br /><br />We would be ecstatic to get either location, for sure. The list of pros is loooong in either case and the cons are small and unimportant. The biggest worry I have is that we've not been stationed at a hole yet...I'm just afraid our luck is going to run out! It will be a relief to just know.

If I love it, well...the military is the greatest for sending us to such an awesome place. If I have a choice, I'm always second-guessing that I made the right choice. We have a strong dislike of this place and I wonder if our other choice would've been any better. Probably not but there's always that little voice that wonders...especially since we aren't happy with this area.<br /><br />As for you...y'all were "home" for 7 years before getting out of there because you wanted out right? So chances are pretty good that you'll end up staying there for at least 4 years...if not longer. It sounds like both options are acceptable to you both so that's good and if you get sent to a hole...you'll have awesome stuff to blog about! lol Keeping my fingers crossed you get what you want...unlike us! :o)Terrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561534041050751125.post-42630168174733527292010-03-17T06:58:06.415-04:002010-03-17T06:58:06.415-04:00Mama Cass, I actually know exactly what you mean a...Mama Cass, I actually know exactly what you mean as difficult as that may be to believe about someone with four kids. I'm pulling for you that things will work out soon.<br /><br />Sarah, I don't think I would take it as well if someone were to tell me that we weren't moving after all. lol I may not know where we're going just yet but I'm relieved to be fairly certain that we *are* going somewhere!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09853679539714823586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561534041050751125.post-2334170857617251902010-03-16T19:43:45.625-04:002010-03-16T19:43:45.625-04:00I hear ya about the doing research...finding homes...I hear ya about the doing research...finding homes, neighborhoods, etc. then getting the notice that, "ha ha, just kidding". <br /><br />I also completely understand that you want to respect the power of wishing and give it its due. <br /><br />By the way...how DO you keep an idiot in suspense?
