Something you always think “what if…” about
Once I was old enough to understand, I learned that my dad was up for promotion in the Coast Guard and didn’t receive it (This was in the early 1990s). I always thought about what if he had received it, and I still think about it.
I know we would have gotten transferred more often, probably once every few years. He absolutely deserved that promotion, but since he didn’t get it, we settled in southeastern Virginia. He transitioned into the Coast Guard Reserve and took a government job full-time. We made Chesapeake our home, and it’s been wonderful for almost 25 years. The house my parents have holds so many special memories. It’s hard to believe next year will be 25 years.
I’m grateful that we didn’t move around very much – My parents only moved twice after I was born – From New York to Alexandria, and then Alexandria to Chesapeake. It’s funny, I’ve moved more times as an adult now – To Farmville for college, to Newport News to live on my own, to my in-laws house in Chesapeake after we got married, and now to Portsmouth where Al and I have our first house together.
I often daydream of where we may have ended up as my dad finished out his Coast Guard career – We could have lived on the West Coast for a while, or other places on the East Coast, maybe even Florida. Who knows! If anything, learning this information, I think, sparked my desire to travel.
