Starting the project

I am starting this blog to enable those who want to participate in my thesis project have a place to put their thoughts. I am very excited about this project and can't wait to start hearing from military spouses and read their experiences or thoughts that I can use for my thesis book project. Some of you might not know what to write. You do not need to be a writer so don't worry about what you say.

You may want to write about the everyday.
What it is/was like to be married to a person in the military.
The routine of it all.
Moving around
The friends you make
Deployments
Raising children, sometimes feeling like a singe parent due to circumstances
What you like(d) best about it
What you like(d) least about it

What you write can be as short as a couple of sentences or an essay.

I will keep everyone posted as this process goes along. I will not graduate until a year from now.

    The words military spouse bring mixed emotions. First and foremost there is a sense of pride that my husband is serving in the military. It isn't without a trembling heart at times, and to be completely honest it isn't without some reservations as to why he's wanted to continue to serve when getting out would have been easier. But the continued choice to serve is not mine to make. The man I married is defined by his service to his country--and that part of him makes him the man I love.

    Hi,
    My friend Andrew Huot directed me to your blog. I'm an AF spouse and I sent a link to your blog to my friends. Maybe you can put a little more about yourself on your website - I don't know your name! I'd be happy to share some thoughts.
