Pros for Ava bug and I
- Family and friends are near by to keep us company
- I am completely familiar with the area I live in
- There are more than enough activities nearby that are baby geared to keep Ava growing and busy
Pros for Justin
- He enjoys gunnery
- he doesn't have to worry about me needing help
- he doesn't have to worry about me being alone in a foreign state
- This is a good way to get to know the soldier's in his unit
So we've definitely got some great positives to this situation. I'm pretty excited to see what the families in this unit are like. I wasn't going to dabble with the FRG this time around, but I'd like to (at the very least) stay in the loop about training dates and company events. Apparently this FRG is nothing like the normal. Women don't try to wear their husband's rank, and the gossip is shunned, not encouraged. That's always a plus in my book. Previous experiences have caused me to approach with caution, so I really don't have expectations.
A few bonus points for Justin would be the facility his unit is located in. Fairly new, upstairs/downstairs, TA50 lockers, showers, and a small workout area. When I heard that his Army gear wouldn't be taking up the garage, our room, or the cars anymore, I was elated. I think it's great that he'll have what he needs on hand at the company all the time. The second thing I loved was the shower and gym right there at the company. Since Justin can't come home for lunch anyways, he won't have to go far to get a workout in or get washed off. Aside from spending time apart this installation seems 100000000 times better than the last one. Hopefully, a month in, he'll feel the same way.
Well I'm off all. Hopefully while Justin is away, I'll find something productive to do. For now, I'm spending each minute I can with my lover and our bug. Happy Tuesday all!
