  • I separated two years ago after serving 9 years in the Air Force.  DH has been ADAF for 10 years now and is currently deployed.  Up until a few months ago I was working as a government contractor, but I quit my job to SAH with my 17 month old daughter and finish my master's degree.  Next month is our 8th wedding anniversary.

  • Hi. I'm Marie (not erica), H is AD AF and is getting ready to cross train and hopes to commission sometime in the near future. I'm an office manager/medical assistant currently and I'm also going back to school to hopefully work towards becoming a physician. He's stationed here in FL, but we're hoping to be able to go back home to Vegas soon (or at least within driving distance to it). We have a 2 1/2 year old Great Dane and no plans for human babies in the near future.

    Welcome newbs!

  • I'm Jen. I'm a SAHM and DH is AD Army. We live in GA and will probably be here for at least a couple more years. We have a one year old DD and are expecting our second LO in June.

    I don't post much here because I don't think we've really been around the Army enough for me to dish out advice on most things.

  • I'm Erin. MH is AD AF and we are stationed in NorCal. I am a SAHM to our daughter, Emily. I separated from AD after nearly 8 years when she was born 16 weeks early. I go to school full time to finish my BA since I goofed around while in the AF. I like to cook and am currently attempting to lose the last 15 pregnancy pounds. Would probably be easier if I kicked my nightly glass (or 3) or wine LOL 
  • Since TomHope DDed, and I replied to her, I have to repost this I guess:

    I'm Jilly, I'm a therapist, DH is AD AF, we have a dog William. I am planning on joining the AF as a psychologist (long term plan) but first I have to get into doctorate school (hopefully this fall).

  • Hi I'm Alex, mostly stick to MB on TK but pop over here every once in awhile (and generally find the info I need without posting!) I do cancer research and H is USCG; we got married last September. Eagerly awaiting his new orders and planning on PCSing this summer.

  • Hi!  I'm AJ.  Husband is AD AF for 11 years now, been together 10 of those years, married for 3.  We have two dogs- a 7 year old mix and a 2 year old Great Dane and after almost 5 years TTC are only a few weeks away from having our first baby!

    I'm a high school Spanish/French teacher, but due to our current location, am unemployed, which works out alright for us right now- I get to do alot of volunteer work (campaigning to bring March of Dimes drives to US territories) and with the baby on the way it's nice to relax a bit and know I'll have time at home with him !(and also how we think - maybe - I finally got pregnant.  :)
