5. If you could talk to the Secretary of (fill in your appropriate branch) what is one suggestion you would like to bring to their attention in order to improve the lives of military families?

Answers:

1. I'd have to say my favorite MilSpouse blog is definitely Ann Marie over at Household6diva!
2. My favorite thing about Sailor being deployed is all the extra money we get that we can save or even pay off some of our debt with. Plus, he gets to see all kinds of different countries & cultures. When he first deployed I didn't think there could possibly be an upside to something so depressing. I was wrong. I've grown so much as an individual.
3. Wow, Sailor & I always get asked this. & we always get the same response "WOW, that was quick!!" Anyhow, we dated for 5 months before he proposed & we got married. We started dating on 14DEC07, he proposed to me on 11MAY08 & we got married 19MAY08. It was quick, people doubted us but we've been happily married for nearly 3 yrs!
4. I honestly don't know what he'd do if he wasn't in the military. I met him after he had already decided this is what he wanted to do & he had already signed his contract.
5. Ya know.. I'm not really sure about that one. I've never even thought about that.

Don't forget tomorrow is Friday!
