Already?

Short version:
I am moving to Alabama Jan. 26th.

Long version:
Joseph went back to Fort Rucker after Christmas only to find out two days before Officer training started that his name was never entered into the computer last May to do his security clearance. So for the second time his training has been pushed back. This time to March 18th-May 6th. Bringing our seperation time to 9 months. Joseph asked if he could move us out there now so we could at least be together for 2 months before his Officer training. His sergeant, the office issuing the moving orders, and one of his commmanders said that the Army wouldn't pay for the move until the last week of February. So I would either stay out here until the middle of May, or pay the $3000 to move ourselves out there. I was not happy with either of these options. 9 months is a long time, but why should I pay for the military's mistake. Of all the things you can reasonably expect of the military is to pay for moves. Then I felt terrible for telling Joseph I wasn't willing to pay the money to be with him. To the temple I went this morning because I had absolutely no idea what to do. And I had to decide quickly to be fair to studios I teach at. Also to be out in Alabama enough before Joseph leaves for 7 weeks to make it worth it. I left the temple with the thought of trying to move ourselves if Joseph was given leave to get us. If not, I wouldn't have any one to help drive out and would have to wait until May. There was a message on my phone when I got out. Apparently Joseph helped his sergeant with paperwork and she was appreciative and pulled his orders for him. He now has them, and the army will pay for the move. So the date is set-the 26th. It is such a relief to have this decision made. Now to get the moving plans in motion.
