Getting shorter and shorter. I have 86 more days left until I'm no longer called IT2, Petty Officer, and Pappy (since no one can pronounce my last name at all). I'll be called Fran, FranJessca, Frannie, Mrs. Papillion and even Ma'am (although I get that already).
It's going to feel weird to be out of the Navy. I've known the Navy for 10 years now...but it's time to challenge myself in something else....by going back to school to get my degrees in Photography/Graphic Design. Yes...I'm getting away from Information Technology and Network Security all together...but apart of me will always know my heart still belongs to the PCs. I enjoy securing a network and also showing a customer how to work their computer properly. My heart's passion is photography though. My camera has been an attachment to me since my daughter was born....actually before then since I traveled all over Europe and got to see some amazing sights and also got to experience some things in the Navy I wanted to share with others.
So 86 more days in the Navy...what is my mind thinking. I'm not going to miss it all...but my heart is saying I'm going to miss the traveling a bit. Although, I'll still be able to do it by MAC flights...thanks to my hubby.
I'm going to enjoy being home more with my family. Alexia will have a hard time adjusting for awhile since she's used to me leaving to go to work at strange hours. Now she'll get to see me everyday doing homework along with her, since I'll be in school along with her.
I'm really looking forward to what the rest of 2011 has to offer for me and my family and what 2012 has in store for us.
I'm really looking forward to being called by my first name from now on.
86 more days and believe me I am counting.
64 days until I'm on separation leave though...that's even a sweeter deal.
XOXO,
FranJessca
