Well Hello

So this is my first post of many.

I am currently going through deployment...and when I say "I am going to through deployment," I mean my marine boyfriend is deployed and I am trying to survive it. This blog is intended for others like me, soon to be like me or anyone who actually reads this/finds it interesting.

I want to give support, advice and general distractions for other Marine/Army/Navy/Air Force/Reserves/etc significant others. It is rough, so you need support to help you through it.

Comments are appreciated!!


So first things first:

My name is Lizzie and I have been with my Marine for a year and seven months. He left in January on a MEU. We talk somewhat regularly, but it varies and is always a surprise. 3:00AM, while at work, while I am in the shower...that has been the most challenging/interesting call yet (and my phone survived and I wasn't late for work!!)

I love him to death, and every night I go to bed with the thought of him coming home. Kind of sappy, I know, but it is true.

My puppies get me through many a rough, lonesome night. Here I am with Oliver:




Sleep well!
