Anticipation
The anticipation is killing me.
This is one of those circumstances that I know God is in control of everything but I don't have any clue what he has in store. Matt is (hopefully) going to do his physical and meet with a career counselor and actually swear in on Friday. This has yet to be scheduled because the Army has to release their claim on Matt (usually a 3 day process) and Matt's transcript is supposed to arrive (hopefully tomorrow). After that they can schedule the physical. We were told that there was no reason to expect a date other than Friday for his physical but there is always a chance that something will happen.
Then, once he gets to MEPS (military entrance processing station I believe) he gets to find out if the job he wants is open. This is one of those Up to God things. If it is open and he gets the job right away, I'll consider ourselves highly blessed. If its closed and we have to wait an unknown period of time, we are going to be very frustrated while waiting for God's plan to actually get on a roll.
So, its all up to God. If there is a glitch with processing before Friday and/or if the job is closed...it is all up to God.
But the anticipation is killing me because this is one of those things that we can do no more than pray for. And I'm very much the sort of person that likes to have everything planned out- or at least some idea of what is going to happen in the next 5 years. All I know is that within the next 5 years we'll be somewhere doing something for the military.
On a totally different note, I have been playing tetris on my computer. In this particular game getting to level 5 is pretty awesome. But I have to brag- I got to level 9 today and cleared 181 lines! The sad part is that I've been playing so much that I'll catch myself playing it in my head. I'll suddenly see a tetris piece and start trying to fit it into all these made up puzzles- sometimes its amusing and other times it creeps me out.
