Today my husband got on a plane and flew to Afghanistan. We've know this day was coming for the past three months but somehow it all feels fresh again. Dan was an officer in the US Navy for nine years before leaving active duty in exchange for a desk job. He decided to stay in the Navy Reserves but we never really thought he'd be called up again for a deployment. Apparently we were very wrong about that one.
I'm starting this blog as a way to share with friends and family - maybe even strangers - what it's like to be on the other end of a deployment. I can't promise my posts will be witty or even remotely entertaining. What I am committed to is sharing the truth about the ups and downs, the hardships, the good and the bad that comes with being a mom, wife, sister, friend, co-worker and military spouse. I hope you'll join me for our journey.
