This my first time participating in this MilSpouce Friday Fil-In at Wife of a Sailor and I am late. Ooooppps, this will probably be a habit for me but I am going to try it out.
1.How many pets do you have? And what type? submitted by Life and Times of a Displaced Jersey Girl
Well, we have 4 dogs, 1 cat and a 75 gallon fish tank. Our 4 dogs are; Duke who is, a Black Lab mix, is stationed in Rio, WI (Grandpa's house). Osa who is a Schipperke and Kuma who is a chihuahua, both names mean bear and they are stationed in De Forrest, WI (Grandma's house). Last but not least is Devin who is a Huskey mix that is stationed in Cincinnati, OH (Cousin's house). Our cat is Chance because he was my last chance to have a cat. He made the cut and is now stationed in Lake Station, IN (Other Grandpa's house)The fish do not have names and were stationed back to the pet store and probably resold :( they were getting big too and now we have to start all over when we get home. So thats my zoo across 3 States. I miss them very much and I have pictures of them all in my Family and Photos tabs.
2.What are your favorite projects to do while hubby is away? submitted by my-inspired-nest
Well, so far when hubby is away so am I. We met on our last deployment and now we are both currently deployed again. Hopefully I will never know.
3.What are the must-haves in your deployment care packages? submitted by Christine’s Little Blog
When I send my husband something I try to find something that is special and unexpected. Something that will let him know that he is on my mind and that he is my top priority. Last time I went online and made him a photo book to take with him on his deployment. One our first deployment I made him a fleece blanket. I want him to know he is everything to me.
He sends me cards a lot and he is actually a very good writter and I always feel so special when I read them.
4.If you could star in any TV show, which would it be? submitted by Just a Girl
I would be on The Amazing Race!! I have applied twice with my dad and once with my husband but I guess we are not all that exciting.......no-one ever called us :( Oh well.
5.What was the biggest hurdle that you faced during your/your significant other’s first deployment? submitted by The Pavlik Perspective
First deployment is when we met so it was all good. I didn't have much to miss. Just my parents, friends and the one dog (Osa) that I had at the time. This time I REALLY MISS my life. This is the hardest 2 years of my life and I am only half way through it. I miss my husband, my two stepsons, my pets, my belongings, my house, my van and I still miss my family and friends. Oh and there is the baby thing, but you will have to read 3 Appointments and Lots of Meds for that story. (It's Long) I have also missed the birth of my sisters first baby (girl), my nieces second baby (Missed the first on on my first deployment, both boys), my husbands sister's second baby (boy), and now a friends baby will be born in a month or so (surprize).
