The 3 AM Friend
We all know it is hard to make friends at each and every new duty station. Sometimes you have to take that leap of faith to find your tribe.
The Secret Life of Boot Snakes
From an outside view, it’s sometimes easy to look upon our service members in a strictly matter-of-fact, all-business-all-the-time fashion. I know that I myself find so many aspects of military culture intimidating at times. However, today I’m sharing a sneak peek into the secret behind-the-scenes life of our military family. Everything is not so serious all of the time. Thank goodness! Today, I bring you The Secret Life of Boot Snakes!

Introducing: Forward, March!
Newsflash: Things are always changing in military spouse life.
Okay, so maybe that doesn’t classify as “breaking news.” More like “Well, yeah… that’s no surprise.”

Loss and Grief
My name is Elisa, I’m the oldest granddaughter on my father’s side of the family. Two years ago today, my beloved Nana passed away. Life, as I’d always known it to be, was forever changed. The relationship she and I shared was incredibly special and unique.
I miss her fiercely.
18 Books To Fall Into This Autumn
Autumn is my favorite time of year to read a book. A hot drink, fuzzy blanket, and diving into the pages is really all I need. If you’re looking for a new book to read that may relate to military life, here are a few books for you to try. They span a variety of genres, so there is something for almost everyone. You can find them wherever books are sold.
Vacation All I Ever Wanted: Part 2
If you’re anything like my military family, vacations seem to be few and far between. Maybe even nonexistent.
And if you’re anything like my military family, your “vacations” usually consist of going to visit family members whenever you have a chance, rather than going anywhere else. You can read more about my experience here.
