It's not the best commute but at least I have my friends and family to fall back on when he's not around....I also remind him (if/when he whines) that it was his choice to become a pilot and I'm sorry he doesn't like being gone!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14386851064491877659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455334441081128457.post-37772095091183861972013-05-16T21:16:23.285-07:002013-05-16T21:16:23.285-07:00Thanks for sharing!

That definitely is a stressor on marriage and just life in general, but it sounds like you are learning to deal with it beautifully -- and supporting your husband with it, too. That's not easy!Erika from Americahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079473916722620673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455334441081128457.post-9831849456527171042013-05-16T12:09:08.984-07:002013-05-16T12:09:08.984-07:00Ah!

I am finally getting used to being a Milspouse and barely seeing my husband during the week. Just as I start to really get use to this, the Army has plans to move us again and then he will be getting out which then we will face another new city and change. Enjoy the time together now, enjoy the present! <3Michelle (michabella)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09210880599889710623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455334441081128457.post-27799758760907480072013-05-16T08:04:02.082-07:002013-05-16T08:04:02.082-07:00I can relate, Ashley!

I wrote about this same topic on my blog today and determined that the best way to cope is by adopting the best attitude possible, which you seem to be doing very well! :)Kate Harveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09960902615430592468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455334441081128457.post-52959045348019516802013-05-16T07:54:01.409-07:002013-05-16T07:54:01.409-07:00I can completely relate to the uncertainty of what...I can completely relate to the uncertainty of what your daily life will be! My husband works nights for 4 days; then days for 4 days; then off for 4 days. Getting into a routine is near difficult! Just when I get used to having him home at night, he's gone. A big part of why I dont want kids is b/c I'd be pretty much a single mom. Its hard to let life pass me by while I wait for years at a time for our life to settle down.Katiellirbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097991130806682031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455334441081128457.post-64928735372327801902013-05-16T07:26:16.202-07:002013-05-16T07:26:16.202-07:00As a pilot wife, I was at one point reluctant to p...As a pilot wife, I was at one point reluctant to put down roots. But for us and me, that wasn't an option. So we bought a house and committed to live where we do. Even if that means he may have to commute some day. I can get myself upset if I think about it but we will just have to deal with it when it comes. Which is what I try to remind myself as we are going to be welcoming our first child this summer. I have to remind myself that despite his schedule, we WILL find a way to make the child care schedule work. I don't know how yet, but it WILL work somehow. :)Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08778678789173107387noreply@blogger.com
