My husband’s job search has been a big adventure, but I, personally, have very little to do with it. So instead I want to focus on what his military separation means to me. For one, I can only call myself a Navy submariner’s wife for just a few more months. It all goes away August 31. For the past few years, I’ve let his military service define our relationship and also myself . . . read the rest here
And if you found me from Poe's blog, welcome! If you're wondering, we still don't know where we're headed next!
Your post was so well written, Cat! And I feel the exact same way you do. Danny gets out in about a year..I'm excited and a tad bit nervous about it. There are so many benefits that I'm so used to (like you guys, Danny was already in the USMC when I met him) and afraid to not have. Good luck with your new adventure!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!! And, to make you feel a little better, the commissary isn't a great deal everywhere. Out here, it's actually MUCH less expensive to do the grocery shopping at Target or other local groceries!
ReplyDeleteGood to know! Maybe it's because they have to compete with Wal-Mart here, but commissary is definitely the cheapest. The NEX, however, notsomuch.
DeleteOn being a non-military spouse, but a Navy "brat"-
ReplyDeleteI am constantly trying to convince Marcus to join the reserves simply so I can go to the commissary and NEX again...it's not working, haha
