Pt. 1 Moving More Often than an Army Brat
You to serve as a backdrop for future stories. I'm going to share with you all the places I lived and schools I attended during my growing up years between 1974 and 1992. This will be more than one episode. To this day, I don't know the reason for all the moves, but I can guess it was more than my dad going where the carpet installation work was. As he always claimed, I moved about twice as many times as the average military brat
Hey, that's definitely a big rap sheet of travel and moving. I could only imagine. I actually am an army Brad. I was raised in the. In a lifestyle where we truck, we moved every two, every two years. Just about until my dad retired. The longest stay we ever had anywhere was five years. And. Yeah, so I get it. I was in three elementary schools. No, two elementary schools, two middle schools and three high schools
You. Hey, I wanted to let you know that part two of this is up as a separate post. Thank you for listening to this. I'm curious to know how your social life was affected by moves and school changes. Did you find it easy to make new friends? Or did you make pen pals out of the ones you left behind? Would love to hear more of your story. Thank you
But one thing that I did realize on the negative side, one of the many negative sides, I should say, was my ability to just move on and cut people out and be friends with people for quite some time of my life and then just be utterly, absolutely, totally fine with just never saying thing to him again. So it's extreme, but it's also, I think, just builds on I make a lot of friends all the time, everywhere I go. Pretty friendly
