Having a House

Having Hughes Net Internet Service at the new house has made this move a lot easier. I hate being home all day with nothing to do but since we decided I’d stay home with the kids while my husband worked it’s what I’m going to have to do for a while since the cost of daycare is just too out of control to even consider. I love my kids don’t get me wrong but they’re in class almost all day so it’s nice to be able to get online and shop or email my family back home when I need to. The blessing and curse of being a military wife is that you have a lot of flexibility in terms of where you live and there’s usually a great support system on base for the females. The downside is that people are sometimes less able to commit to jobs outside the military because they move so often and that’s definitely what’s happened here. I’ll figure out a way not to die of boredom!
