You’ve made It…..Your 1st Duty Station!
You’ve made it! Not in a way that the adventure is over, for it is truly just beginning.
Life Long Learning
Ding, ding, ding! Schools are almost back in session.
This year I have a senior and a fourth grader, so while the past years have felt fairly routine, this year will feel very different.
Waiting for the Rain
I sat on my back deck that afternoon, watching the fiery sunset. Incredible shades of crimson and orange, pink and deep amethyst, were painting the most beautiful masterpiece across the western sky with its backdrop of the distant Sangre de Cristo mountains.
Playgrounds and PCS
Well, the summer is in full swing here in Augusta, Georgia, and when our kiddo isn’t at the pool or running through the fountains at the park, he can be seen swinging through the air on the monkey bars or being twirled in circles on the merry-go-round. While he is relatively care-free playing with his friends and delving into many books at the library, I have been struggling with how to prepare him for yet another move at the end of the summer.
Landlord, Prepare for Your New Tenants
Military families prepare for a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) by making lists—many of them. At the top of every list is at least one item that embodies some aspect of military housing, whether it is notifying your landlord of your departure, renting or selling your current home, or securing housing at your next military installations.
Healthy Parenting During a PCS
My family and I are currently in the home stretch of my husband’s third deployment. As I make arrangements for our PCS move from Virginia to Texas, minus my husband, Military OneSource continues to hold my hand through it all. The resources and advice found on their website blow my mind because I do not remember this wonderful and infinite information rainbow being available during our first deployment several years ago. Then again, I had everything figured out back in the day when we were military newbies!
Milspouse Entrepreneurs: A Long Standing Tradition
When we think about American life at the beginning, way back in 1776, I think most of us conjure up images of powdered wigs and petticoats, muskets and black powder, while a patriotic marching song plays in the background performed by a fife and drum. But did you know that a some of the earliest, trail-blazing military spouse entrepreneurs also had their start during the American Revolution?
