On The Open Road: Life Goes On
In our family, we love road trips. The journey is just as fun as the destination. It’s the one thing we don’t put on hold when a deployment happens. The change of pace and scenery is greatly welcomed. We’ve just unpacked from another out-of-state...

PCSing with Murphy
The husband and I were in a pretty bad car wreck the other day. Our Nissan Versa was no match for the pickup that rear-ended us doing 55 and bent the entire back frame of the car. Our poor Versa is totaled and we are currently in the process of dealing...

Appreciating Time Together
I had a thought recently, and then Sarah had a similar thought. (Thank goodness it’s not just me, like I usually fear.) There is an odd point in the moving-being home-deployment-training-whatever cycle where your spouse has been home long enough...

When “Nonmilitary” Means the Opposite
I try not to be the “guy who only writes about guy stuff,” but Amy recently sent me this story about some of the challenges faced by male military spouses. The article doesn’t really cover any new ground for those of us living the living...

That Was 17 Years Ago!
I’m riffing off of Amy here. This started as a comment on her post about streamlining the number of acronyms, but I think it can be its own post. Here’s how I started: Ha, I’ll believe it when I see it. The problem is that the military...

Dating Tips for Military Spouses
I hate dating. It’s one of the top reasons I just went and got married (you know, right after “love”). I just didn’t want to deal with the whole playing the field thing anymore. Little did I know that the life of a military spouse means forever dating...

What’s Your Splurge?
I was reading my USAA Magazine and came across a page which listed five things worth the splurge. Their list focused on areas where it’s wise to spend more upfront because it could save you in the long run, but it made me think about my personal...

Army Works to Reduce Acronyms
Remember back when you first entered the military life and you did not understand one blessed thing that came out of the mouth of any service person, including your spouse? Oh wait, that still happens to me. We all know that the military has its own special...

A Girl and Her Pen Pal
We are very happy with the way our daughter is coping with this deployment. Her father has been deploying since she was 2 1/2 weeks old. Every time he would leave, her world would end. Mini hunger strikes, clinging to me so much I had to stay in uniform...

Keeping in Touch With Family
Growing up, every Sunday at six o’clock my family gathered around my grandmother’s table. Dinner was usually meatloaf or roast chicken, and there was always enough food should an extra family member (or five) show up. If you sat at my grandmother’s table...

Fish Out of Water
I am a little lost. No, not just with moving, but with being “out in the open.” The past two moves we have called a base “home,” and living off base and away from the military has me feeling a little exposed. Hope I have my good...

Furry Military Brat
