Military Wife

My boss once said that being in the military means you'll always be saying goodbye to someone. I said good bye 3 weeks ago to my sweet husband. He is being deployed to Djibouti, Africa and will be there for 7 months. Currently he is in overseas/boot campish training at an army base in South Carolina. He's cold. He's tired. He's exhausted. He's hungry. But Scott always has the best attitude and has managed to find good friends and together they made the most of these weeks of training. The good news is that while he is still heading to a war zone, it is a very safe one and he'll be at a desk not on the ground. While he is gone I have vowed to blog more and detail my life as military wife.

I agree with Carren. It's such a bummer Scott had to go. I have a lot of respect for military wives/husbands. They really are unsung heroes.

I do look forward to upcoming posts :D

It's so hard to be away from your hubby! You are such a strong and independent woman! I'm sure you'll do great! ;) At least you have family close! I can't wait to read more about your life, since I'm so terrible about calling my friends! :) Good luck with everything!
