11 days. I say that with butterflies in my stomach and a shiver in my spine.
I have waited impatiently for so long, willing all this time to pass quickly and now that it nearly has, I wonder where it all went. 7 months of waiting is finally culminating in a matter of days.
I will be training to be a Mental Health Specialist. The training for that MOS (Military Occupational Specialty) has a 40 percent attrition rate, from what I understand. Needless to say, it will be a tremendous challenge. I will begin my AIT (Advanced Individual Training) for this career on 17 June to 26 October. And I will miss my husband's 30th birthday. :(
For now though, my focus is on Basic Training. My biggest dread for BCT is most definitely the sleep deprivation. I will be forced to exercise more self control than I thought possible because I will be a GROUCH. And a very angry grouch at that! Ha!
It's almost time to take my mind and remake the canvas that is my thoughts and emotions, blank again. Erase all the ugliness from such a breathtaking picture of a blessed life, and allow a new start for all that is within my being.
I am going to have some fun with this obstacle I have put before myself.
