I did not have a good experience with recruiting school. I was putting the house up for rent and packing it in my own with two kids. It was a nightmare, as if hubs didn't have enough on his plate with school I was freaking out at home. I felt so overwhelmed with finding a Renter or deciding to sell, getting all the necessary paperwork for us with schools and doctors. Then having to pack the necessary items and getting aTMO/DMO in order. 😕
I was also freaking out about recruiting duty! I had herd such terrible things about it. The long hours, the constant stress, living as roommates. I was horrified. Yet there is always a silver lining and I like to thank those women Jo said good things. That had been my lifesaver!!!! The ones who said It is what you make; it depends on the command, and the just be there for each other. It has been nothing like a deployment or being a single parent; if you haven't experienced it there is no way to explain it. Those great women have made this experience better.
To anyone out there that is going on recruiting duty or contemplating it, it is not horrid. Like any duty it has its ups and downs but finding what works best for you is the key. -but I'm sure y'all know that😉-
Finding a routine has been our biggest challenge. Hopefully we will all get out of our funk we have been in and get back on track. We had the blessing of being stationed in our hometown. So our family is close, going is a great support system. It has it's moments but we are getting there. New duty, new home, new friends, new everything. It has taken us longer to adjust than we would have liked; so much has changed in our hometown since we have been away.
It is a great big new adventure! 😁 stay tuned
