I love being a millitary wife, but wanted to make a list so you civilian folks could see things from our point of view! Some funny and some not so funny....and in no specific order. I'm sure there are many more, anyone can feel free to add on!
1. Sleeping alone. Not only him not being there, but every creaking sound you think of reaching for your gun.
2. Having your phone glued to you 24/7. Even to go to the bathroom or shower. Because missing a phone call is even worse.
3. Seeing your child learn something new without him there.
4. No SEX!
5. Going to holdiay dinner/ events by yourself.
6. Seeing that disgusting couple in walmart holding hands and shopping together.
7. Standing in line at the post office for an hour...trying to carry 2-3 boxes and a kid.
8. Living out of a suitcase from visiting home or living far from home.
9. Not knowing anything that is going on with your husband.
10. There's no overtime pay....because the government would be in even more debt.
11. Trying to hang a picture, and when you're done there are 5 holes other than the one the picture is hanging from.
12. It's Friday night and you're going on a date? Oh, I didn't know the difference. I thought it was Tuesday.
13. Should I buy this while it's on sale? Gah, I wish I could call my husband and ask if we need it!
14. I can't open this jar of jelly.
15. When he is home, he's training.
16. I'm starving. I think I'll eat a granola bar. I don't have anyone to cook for.
17. Oh, what's that you say? You and your boyfriend broke up for the fifth time? Hmm. Please go somewhere else.
18. Watching him walk away in the rear view mirror.
19. The grass needs cut...and I don't know how to replace this weedeater string either.
20. Doing something fun and feeling guilty for having fun without him there...on top of wishing he
was there with you.
