Uniforms! I suppose I should start thinking about buying them in the near future. The OTS site mentions spending around $1500 for the uniforms, but I have been told that the class I am in will need to purchase the mess dress and some of the seasonal items. Plus, I have been told by others to buy additional items - so we are looking at closer to $2500 for the whole kit and caboodle! Yikes!
I am already overextended with hiring movers to clear out my house and storing everything until my home closes. I may need to wait until we get a little closer to the date to look into buying the uniforms.
From everything I have read there will most likely be a mix up with the pay for the time I am in COT plus we do not get the BAH while in COT. So every little dime will be needed.
My last day of work will be December 7th and I cannot wait! A wee bit over three weeks and I will be off for the entire holiday and have one last break before starting it all up again. It will be great having all that time off. The only downer is that I will have to watch what I eat during the holidays. So, there will be no cake, cookies, fried things or anything else that may be all fatty and delicious.
Bah Humbug!
