  • Do I haaaaaveee toooooooo?

    My H is in the guard after 8 years active duty. We allow two short kids to live in our house rent free in exchange for random chores and the occasional beating. We're expecting a new target for our amusement in January.

    We also have a dog person who is every so slightly overweight and responds to a variety of names including chunky monkey.

  • I'm D and MH is A.  He's ARNG and was also on AD for 7 years.  We live in Philly with his DD (Alanna) and a 2 y/o cat child named Leela, who is more demanding than the human child.  I'm an out-of-work special ed teacher (**shakes fist at education cuts).  I'm using the time off to go to grad school and chip away at some various writing and craft projects.

    I changed my name
  • I'll play.

    I only lurk here, but I'm Boop, H is ARNG. We live in an AF town in west TX. He's a cop and I'm about to finish my last year of school to be a middle/high school math teacher. No kids (hopefully within this coming year?), just a very old dog and a troublesome cat who sometimes thinks he's a dog.

    we are about to PCS to Norfolk in the fall.

    Norfolk is the best! Well, not Norfolk, but the areas surrounding. I may be biased because I grew up there and live there currently, but still. If you need recommendations for anything in the area let me know!

     

    We heard that Norfolk isn't exactly the "best" place to live there so we have recently chosen to live in Virginia Beach. How is the traffic going to base from there? Any recs of areas to live? Thanks!  

    We live in the Greenbrier area of Chesapeake (which is about 20-25 minutes to NOB when you leave really early in the morning). As long as you get on I-64 before 7 the traffic isn't too bad, but any time after that it can get really heavy.

    I'm not too familiar with the housing areas in Virginia Beach, but I love shopping in Lynhaven.

I have two kids but they have paws so we can't claim them as dependents. [sad face] I love my H. That is all for now. [insert drink icon here]
