Yep. Still giving thanks every month. I can’t believe it either. I’ve had this going since January (February, March, April, May, June, July, August, and September, too), and I have two months left. It’s been a heck of a year, to say the least.
When you’re a military spouse, it’s tough to invest the time and money into a beautiful outdoor living space. After all, the day you complete your project might also be the day you receive your PCS orders. And, if you’re renting a home or living in military housing, you may not even be permitted to tackle larger projects. Fortunately, there are several ways you can create a backyard living space for fall entertaining that is not only beautiful, but also easy to take with you.
We’ve been at our new duty station for a little more than a month now, and making new friends has been hard.
I think one of the most difficult things about moving is meeting new people. I used to think I was pretty outgoing, but now that I’m getting older, I realize that I’m actually the opposite.
It’s important for military families to be educated about the amazing military resources available to us. I hope you find this blog informational and that it provides you with something you might have needed. I covered my favorite resources used throughout the years of being an military spouse. I’ve used them all and they are wonderful!
Those of you who have been hanging around the blog for a while know that my husband has been on recruiting duty for the past seven years.
It was about 2:30 p.m. on the 5th of November in 2009. I worked at a school in Killeen just outside the main gates of Fort Hood. A parent walked into our classroom to pick up her child. I was the teacher’s aide in the classroom. The parent walked up to the teacher and said, “There’s been a shooting on post.”
