  Do you live on base? If so, is it as much fun as Army Wives makes it seem?

  Actually, we don't and never have lived on Post. When you're a married soldier, you get a flat base amount of extra money, called BAH (money for housing). When you live ON post... you never see it, because it pays your rent and base utilities (electricity and water.) We actually save money by living off post. So I can't tell you about that sort of Army Wife experience. From others I know, though, not just here at Bragg, but at other Posts' as well, it can be quite the PITA. Maintenance takes forever, they get really nosey and persnickety about things, etc. I don't know what we're going to do yet when we move to the Post in Alaska. The cost of living is really high up there, so we will do whatever is most cost effective.

  Oh  wow... That's a good question! Umm... I really don't know! But I will think on it and let you know if I think of what that fits the best!

  1 Thing I Love About DH: He always puts the kids and I first, when it comes to the things that are really important. 

  1 Thing That Drives me Nuts: His ability to fall asleep, anytime, anywhere. I'd KILL for that ability. (I guess that's more of an "I'm jealous.") Other than that... he drops his clothes on the floor... instead of the basket they're supposed to go in. Drives me CRAZY.

  Melissa: Just for you.(this is going to be long, thanks to the pics).
  

  Tattoos,
  

  Right thigh- Technically two separate tattoos- The rose garter was my first one.
  

   

   

  Back/Shoulders- All the kanji's were done at the same time. The other two are tribute tattoos for my miscarriages. 
  

  

   

  Right upper arm- Danny (MH) has a Jessica Rabbit to match, on his R forearm
  

   

   

  Lotus on my upper left arm
  

   

   

  Left wrist- "brother/siste'r" tattoo with our adoptive brother Jake (he's a soldier in my Hubby's company) I got him addicted to spider bites (the drink/shot). Haha

   

   

  Piercings: I didn't take pictures of my piercings, because honestly,  I don't want to... and one of them y'all aren't going to want to see in the first place! =P

  I have: two in each ear lobe... one in the center of my lip (which you can see in  my intro pic I posted today, and I just got a vertical clitoral hood piercing last Saturday. My husband is going to be happily surprised when he gets home! ;-) (I figured now was a good time to get it, since it needs a healing period, and he's not home for awhile.)
  

  I used to have: my belly button  done and one in the cartilage of my left ear.
