Buon Anno from Italia

Happy New Year! Or, as Italians might say, Buon Anno! It’s been awhile since I’ve written for My Military Life and I have to say, I’m super excited to be back. I’m in my last year of graduate school so any time I’ve spent on a computer in the past few months had been dedicated [...]

Lose Weight! Get in Shape! A MyMilitaryLife Challenge

  Who among us couldn’t stand to lose a few pounds or to be in better shape? Do you dread going to the doctor because you’re going to receive the obligatory “You need to lose weight?” lecture? Is your weight contributing to other health issues? In a world where the media has shaped how both [...]

So the big 30? Yes, it just happened! I thought about it for some time, it was coming – and it was coming quick! No big deal, I am not one to get worked up over age. But how in the world do you celebrate that? Being away from family makes birthdays hard for everyone. [...]

The Difference In Love

Early in my journey as a military wife, I came to realize that my husband loves his country. He has a love for it that most people will never understand. I remember at times thinking that he must love it more then he loves me. Or maybe he doesn’t love it more; maybe it is [...]
