My First Blog

Sooo....
It has been approximately 6 years since I have wrote a blog!
But now I am at a very interesting time in my life. I am twenty years old. I have been married to an amazing man for one year as of August 29. This amazing man also happens to wear combat boots and ABUs. He also happens to be currently deployed in Iraq.
Hence, the main reason I am starting this blog. Sean (my above-said husband) has been gone for two months now. Now that we have gotten into the bulk of his first deployment, it is really starting to wear on me, and wear on me hard....
Because I chose to move back with my family while Sean is gone, I have completely cut myself from all the support that would have been available to me at out duty-station in New Jersey. So on emotionally straining night like tonight, I started searching the internet for some support. I stumbled upon several different blogs. They were all very encouraging. However, none of them were quite, exactly in my shoes. Most had been military wives for long periods of time, had children, and already had pretty tough, military-spouse skin.
So I'm hoping that maybe someone out their like me might need someone to relate to. Sean has only been in the military for two years, we have been married for one year, and this is his first deployment. So this is all still pretty new to us.

When we found out he was deploying, it was really really overwhelming. I had never experienced such tough emotions.
Even now, I'm experiencing emotions that I never experienced before.
I'm not going to go into all the details now, as I'd like for this to just serve as an introduction to where I'm at in my military wife timeline.
I don't know if any one will ever read this, but if they do, I hope you can find comfort in knowing you're not alone!
Loneliness has been setting in pretty heavy, so I'd love to hear some comments to know that I'm not alone.
