I already have a couple of blogs floating around. However, this evening my wonderful other half suggested it might be a good idea to write about being the other half of a squaddie couple. I thought this could be a good, as i see a lot from army wives floating around the internet, however, there isn't much about army girlfriends. I know what you thinking and i am sure this will upset a few actually army wives, that my blog title has squaddie wife in it. Well the only reason for that is because wife rhymes with life.
So i imagine from time to time i will write on this blog about all the wonderful things that annoy me about the army, army wives, the government, CRAZY ex girlfriends, and also what it is like to be with a squaddie. The reason i thought that this blog would be a good idea, is because at time i need an outlet, and people on "civvie" street, as its known, don't fully understand. For example, i mentioned to my boss my other half was away for 3 weeks and i'd miss him. His response was, well its not like it's a surprise, you did get with a squaddie after all. Now these comments annoy me; yes i know he would be away at times, but you can't help who you love! Also i find it amazing how many people, make comments like this just because you're with a squaddie. However, if you told them they couldn't see there other half that they see EVERY night for a week it would be a different story.
Anyway, i'm rambling before i have even start the blog and this was just meant to be an introduction post. So without further ado, i introduce my Squaddie girlfriend blog and will leave the ranting to another post.
