What's going to happen next...

Chris was first told that he would be deploying in October 2009 even though he was supposed to be getting out of the Army in November 2009. He was told that he would be stop lossed. Well a few months later they told him nevermind he wouldn't be stop lossed. Today on his way home for lunch his friend who is supposed to be getting out of the Army a month after him, called to say that he checked online and the Army has changed his ETS date to 2010 so he told Chris to check his. Chris checked and his has been changed to December 2010. So now we aren't sure what the heck is going on. We don't know if he's stop lossed or if this is a mistake. We're just playing the waiting game trying to figure out what's going on. Chris called his Sgt. who said "well it looks like you've been stop lossed" so we'll see if he's right or not. I feel like a bitch for saying this but it a way it might be a blessing if he's stop lossed. I've been so stressed worrying about him find a job with the way the economy is. I know Chris is a hard worker and that he'd be looking everyday for a job but the economy what scares me. If he is stop lossed that'll give the economy a year to get better and it would give us a chance to save a LOT of moeny. So I'm kinda hoping that's what happens. I don't think Chris would mind it too much but he's pretty bummed about maybe missing the first year of Jaxon's life...but that's what happens when you're military. He's afraid Jaxon wont know who he is when he comes home but I assured him that he will. So for now I guess we have NO idea what's going to happen and all we can do is wait and see. Hopefully everything works out!
