This past few months we, The Crooks, have been PCSing to our new duty station.
Yes, I said “few months” because, frankly, it’s taken that long from start to finish to finally feel like we’re actually moved.
During the PCS I worried about my animals—a lot. What were they thinking? Were they scared? Were they nervous? Where would they sleep? How would we keep their eating schedule? Would they understand?
My name is Mary and I’m the new girl here on Army Wife Network. I’m very excited to share my experiences and knowledge with all of our readers!
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.
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.
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.
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.
