OT: Want to know where we're moving to next?!
I know what you mean. I'm seriously considering after this tour - after my son graduates - that it's time to come back to the states, buy a house...and never move again. I'm 41 years old, and I've never lived in one house for more than 3 - 3 1/2 years in my life.
I need to go take some pictures of Jakarta. I started to take one of the traffic on my way home today when we were stuck in traffic, as far as the eye could see, but I was so sleepy I figured I'd catch it another day. I need to get some of the rain here too...it's unbelievable. It can flood in 10-15 minutes, and then the kids go out swimming in it. Ugh. Nasty nasty stuff.

That and some long underwear. I used to have some boots w/fur inside but I got rid of them when I moved here. Didn't think I'd need them again in this lifetime...at least not before moving back to the States. I guess it's a good excuse to go shopping!

congrats!
dh was was stationed in NC for 6 years, then we met, he got out, got back in reserves this time, deployed, went AGR and found a spot right here in town.
the contract is up in 2011 so we'll see if we get moved at that point. We'd love germany as a spot! dh is supply so just about anywhere is a possibility

Germany would be a great place to get posted to...not even just because it's Germany, but because it's so central, you could go all over the place there. Who knows...if you go there..I could teach you the 'bad' German phrases I know. I have a German aunt...and that's the only German she taught me...how to curse!

Holly,
Sounds a little too cold for me. I am glad you are happy with your post! Also, thank goodness you kept that warm fuzzy coat!!
I was a child of an Army Officer so we moved all the time. He retired when I was just about out of high school after he put in 20 years. I lived in Hawaii, Oklahoma, Greece, Korea, Germany, Turkey, and West Virgina.
My life seemed normal to me. So whenever people wonders what it is like to move all the time, I always say well I wondered what it would be like to live in the same town all my life. My husband and all his family have lived in the same town all their life. It is so strange to me :) Also, I think if I lived in the same town with all his family, they would drive me batty!
