{Life from Alpha to Zulu}

I am really behind on this post but in my defense, it was a lot harder than I thought. I really had to do some thinking and I'm not very good at that these days =)

One of my favorite blogger friends hosted an A to Z Military Life post. The deployment process played a huge factor in a lot of my ABC answers. I am super excited to read what others MilSpouses had to share.

I am probably missing a ton of things but this was as far as my brain would take me =)
