A whole new world

Mateo started kindergarten last week and I'm home alone with Tomás for the majority of the day. Freddie lives and works in Norfolk, VA so we don't see him very often. Once again, I have to adjust. Not that I have loads of free time, but the time I do have is much more flexible since I don't have to co-op at Mateo's nursery school, pick him up, coordinate playdates and activities, entertain and feed him. Chayla is at school as well so Tomás and I play, run errands and -during his naps - have time for myself. I never thought I'd see the day! I'm trying to be productive with that time by reading, surfing the internet, getting caught up with the rest of society and writing. I don't like writing, but it's something I need to work on so this is a great place to do that. I'm keeping this blog as well as starting a blog geared towards helping other military spouses. It's really just posts about some of my experiences and what I've learned. I hope it can help others in my situation. Please feel free to check it out and share it! http://nyams-notyouraveragemilitaryspouse.blogspot.com
