I sometimes feel jealous of those that live on actual bases with a tight support system but then again, like everything else in life its what you make of it. I. like you, have found my support online thru my blogging buddies and its been a HUGE support!The Mrs.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05390271129994451360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098804745989263814.post-13370847524218028772008-06-12T18:17:00.000-07:002008-06-12T18:17:00.000-07:00I lived on post during my first deployment.

Now my husband is deployed again and I live off post (different post, different unit). It's a bit isolated and different. I miss my old on-post neighborhood.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16309726865466472626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098804745989263814.post-24155948982726365602008-06-12T06:50:00.000-07:002008-06-12T06:50:00.000-07:00lol @ BW.

The nice thing about the blogosphere is that you can find people that you really connect with rather than geographical happenstance. <BR/><BR/>As for the living in the Army full time and living on post, well, I definitely be bringing that transition to you all and will definitely have the reserve/guard experience to compare it to. I'm thinking it is going to be a lot like high school, with salaries and guns. :DButterfly Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15795994131755311131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098804745989263814.post-38402703408480887212008-06-10T12:58:00.000-07:002008-06-10T12:58:00.000-07:00I realize this is a spouse-centric (is that a word...I realize this is a spouse-centric (is that a word?) post, but I remain totally impressed with the way blogging military wives come together. It's truly a wonderful thing, and there was absolutely <I>nothing</I> like it in my day.<BR/><BR/>Living on base/post has its ups and downs. There is support, and there are cliques, and there is (was, in my case) waaay too much gossip. But that's true with any community, innit? <BR/><BR/>Looking back, I think I preferred living off-base to on-base. Just me, of course.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098804745989263814.post-91280859900714808772008-06-10T07:56:00.000-07:002008-06-10T07:56:00.000-07:00Sometimes I feel the same way and wonder what its ...Sometimes I feel the same way and wonder what its like to be constantly surrounded by Army. Right now, my hub is constantly Army: working on base, always surrounded by other soldiers, not having a civilian job. Me on the other hand, I live a civilian life with an Army husband and civilians don't understand how those two lives don't always mix well. <BR/><BR/>Sometimes I feel like I'm missing something since Stonewall is National Guard instead of Active duty. I wonder what it would be like to live totally engulfed in the Army world?Mrs. Mootzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352089014962521820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098804745989263814.post-16614217363761473612008-06-10T02:33:00.000-07:002008-06-10T02:33:00.000-07:00I'll third that - I lived way off post during depl...I'll third that - I lived way off post during deployment, and having you guys in the blogosphere got me through it.

A lot of wives prefer to keep to themselves. There are different cliques and whatnot too. So don't feel too badly that you think you missed out on some stuff.<BR/><BR/>And yes, blogging and the blogosphere is wonderful for support.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
