Loving is not just looking at each other, it’s looking in the same direction.

I love learning more about my fellow MilSpouse bloggers. So I created a weekly meme, which has now morphed into a monthly meme. This will happen on the first Friday of every month. To do this, I’ll post a list of questions the day before (on Thursday so you can have your blog ready on Friday). Come back here on Friday (like today!) and enter your blog post into Mr. Linky below so others know who else participated and we can all visit other blogs. Please leave a comment too! And please feel free to use the button above!

1. What is your favorite winter memory?  
My favorite winter memory is driving our three-wheeler around with my brother riding on the saucer behind it (attached with a rope, of course). He’d try to stay on and I’d whip around the yard and try to fling him off. Yes, I was driving it when I was seven.

2. What is your current favorite TV show?
Big Bang Theory! I just recently discovered this awesome show and now am trying to catch up on it!

3. What was your favorite thing that happened in January?
My favorite thing was finally getting a breakthrough in my physical therapy literally overnight. I can now move my shoulder INCHES more!

4. What is the best sound in the world to you?
My favorite sound is the purring of kittens as they sleep on me!

5. What is the biggest lesson you have learned as a MilSpouse (or significant other)?
The biggest thing I’ve learned–and am still learning–is to go with the flow more. It still bugs me when things we plan change or re-change or re-re-change last minute… but it doesn’t drive me up the wall anymore!

It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you.

1. The best part of October was finally having shoulder surgery… well, it was the best part as long as works!

2. The worst part of October was  starting back-to-back deployments. Ick.

3. For Halloween, I’ll be probably still at my orthopedic surgeons… I have an appointment at 4:20 and it usually takes an hour or more after the appointment to even get in.

4. I hope that in November does not include a snowstorm and 30-degree temperatures INSIDE the house thanks to a nasty snow/windstorm like last year!

5. Wifey has posted MilSpouse Secret Santa. I  will be the one coordinating everyone  be participating.
