So... Hey There.

Alright, well... Here goes nothing. I have no idea what I'm doing, so bear with me.

First, a little about me. I'm 21, married to a soldier, and currently living in Germany. I'm gonna go to school for massage therapy when I return to the states. After that... Who knows? I'm very much a Harry Potter geek. I am a Gryffindor, which is the best house of all. Period. You can add me on Pottermore if you'd like- I'm PhoenixKey3223.

My husband is deploying soon, and this blog will mostly be to talk about my life just before he deploys, during the deployment, and readjusting after he returns. I'll also be sharing some entries from my journal from last year. Funny enough, the months he'll be deployed will almost exactly coincide with the months I was waiting to come over to Germany last year. Coincidence? I think not.

Fair warning, this blog will get very emotional at times. But when you have to give up your husband for 9 months before you've even been married a year, you're allowed to be as emotional as you want, dang it!

The purpose of this is not to be dramatic or make everyone pity me. No, no. It is to inform the public (or those of you reading this blog, anyway) what it was like and what I really went through. Raw. Unedited (well, a little edited). Real. That's pretty much what I'm going for.
