Got bad news today. Nothing earth shattering I guess, but it still stinks.
We are AD military and move around quite a bit. We moved here (FL) 1.5 yrs ago, and I haven't really found a BFF yet, like I do at most of our duty stations. As a military wife, this is important to me - I stay home with the kids, and homeschool the oldest one - and I NEED a buddy.
Of course, I could find a homeschool mom, or another quilter, or whatever, but there are things about this way of life that makes having another mil wife buddy very valuable to me. Someone who just gets it, kwim?
There's one girl here that I really like to do things with but she's about an hour away, and is moving to this summer. They got orders to MI.
There was a family at our last duty station that had a chance of coming here, and we got soo excited about that because we had sooo much fun together and our kids got along so well - but they got orders to CA today.
There were two other families that I only know online, but we get along so well and have so much in common, we were hopeful they'd get stationed here - and they also got orders: one to AL last month and the other to CA yesterday.
So I'm sulking today. boooo.
