update on deployment

i'll either end up deleting or editing this post if my information is wrong or if it's something i'm not allowed to say(i'm pretty sure i am allowed though). it's looking like around december 2nd. 9 days sooner than what i had previously thought(and started telling people) and about 29 days sooner than i had originally hoped for. i feel like i got punched in the stomach on that one, since i am literally feeling sick to my stomach.

most likely the last time off he gets before the deployment is thanksgiving--he gets 96 hrs(wednesday thru saturday night, and heads down sunday morning).he may or may not be able to come home this weekend because of a scheduling issue with the navy, and tom's not told anything until the very last minute. that is the one thing i really can't stand about the military.

Oh no, how unexpected! I certainly hope being deployed sooner means he'll get home that much sooner.
