This is me. Trying to explain away my choice to love and man who is in the military. This is me being honest about the struggles of a military life. This is me, hoping that my stories will make some people feel not so alone, and others thankful that they don't have to go to sleep holding a phone instead of a husband.
Maybe my meager attempt at an explanation of my world, won't help anyone at all.
Maybe, people will just think I am making things up or exaggerating. But the least I can do it try. So this is me. Trying.
Here are a few of the posts I have written about army life so far.
