We're now officially in SC and spent this past week inprocessing the base. As is always the case when showing up at a new base, there are inprocessing checklists to complete and newcomer meetings to attend. In addition to this, we found a second car, purchased our baby furniture and spent six hours at another furniture store in Columbia, the states capital, getting other things we'll need for our new home...we move in 31 March! During the four years overseas, I stayed in apartments or a dorm room on base which were furnished, so there wasn't a need to buy much. Lets just say we're now thankful for zero down and zero % interest for 24 months!
Over the next couple weeks, I'll continue to inprocess and get ready to fly while waiting for my security paperwork be corrected. I was supposed to be at Luke AFB in Phoenix now attending a course, but due to this paperwork issue we flew direct to Shaw in the meantime. Plan B is now for me to attend this course in April about a week after we move into the house. I'll update more in a few weeks after we're in the house and I know what the next steps will be with my training.
