MilSpouse Friday Fill-In

1. A different twist on last week’s question. This week, the first question is:  What’s the nicest thing a MILSPOUSE has ever done for you?  (brought to you from navy_smurfette)  During deployments my online milspouses are my rocks. They are the women who listen to my complain without judgement. Civilians don't get it. We were full timers prior to 9/11 so when Christopher would be away it was only for training or schooling. When 9/11 happened and deployments became apart of our lives he was in the NG. We don't live near his unit, there are no military families in the town we live in and my military friends are online. I'm very grateful for them and hope I'm there for them the way they are there for me.
2. How often do you drive faster than the speed limit?  I do a consistent 10 mph over pretty much all the time. Which compared to my husband's driving is nothing.
3. Did you have a nickname in school?  If so, what was it?  "Tag" it was short for my maiden name. Kids starting calling me that in 9th grade because it was my grandfather's nickname and my dad's. One girl's dad worked with mine and she started calling me "Tag" and it stuck.
4. If your life was a book, what would the title be and how would it end?  "The Domestic Goddess Handbook: of what not to do" hopefully it ends with a happily ever after. I'm still waiting to see myself.
5. Look back (in your planner if you have one) to September 14th… what did you do that day?  I won my first blog giveaway! A $35 gift card for CNS Stores, which I used to buy a Flirty Apron. I took Mocha to the groomers. Did yoga and kettlebell exercises. I made steak and garlic oven fries for dinner.
