1. How did you and your spouse/significant other meet?
We were working as camp counselors and at first hated one another. One weekend he saw me doing lifeguard drills in those oh so sexy one piece speedos and fell in love right then... Ok well maybe not right then but six months after we started dating he left for basic and a year after we started dating he flew me to Puerto Rico last minute to propose on the beach at sunset it was amazing. Now we are just trying to set a date the Coast Guard approves of!
2. What is the best thing about being a MilSpouse?
A very strong support system with warm welcomes it never gets old no matter where I go since a little girl its been great...(my dad was a military man as well!!!)
3. What is the hardest thing about being a MilSpouse?
The lack of being able to talk to him and also sometimes the distance its so hard to go back home and leave him...
4. What is your favorite dish?
My homemade Spaghetti it is simply amazing although J hates when I put green olives in which are my favorite!!!
5. If you could change one thing in this world, what would it be?
The stereotypes I've learned that as I move my thick accent catches people off guard then the jokes continue no matter how long I am here. I love learning about the people and places where I visit but I just hate the barrier and constantly asked to say certain words just so they can hear me talk. Especially whenever I'm ordering dinner and that turns into a 15 minute ordeal!
I hope you can find a date that works soon! We ended up changing our date by a whole year.
ReplyDeleteI have a thick Southern accent. When we were stationed in England and Utah, people LOVED it! Now we are in the MidWest and the jokes pour on! It really annoys me!! Good luck on finding a date. Luckily, we only had to change our date twice!
