Here's my life as a military wife: My husband is pretty much a normal guy. My kids are annoy me a 'normal' amount but they are still the best things that ever happened to me. The military is a navigable pain in the ass but it works for us.Our post is ok. My friends are ok. I like my in-laws. Our life is basically huge stretches of boring-normal, interspersed with some difficulty. I wish people would realize that military family does not = thrilling, exciting lives. I get tired of explaining that to my friends. We're just people.

The shit shall hit the fan as we embark on our next journey - I'm fine with it but we are going to the land of the in-laws. Oooh boy. DH doesn't think there will be drama but I know better!

He might get deployed this year and if he does, it'll be last-minute and he won't get to go home and explain it in person to his family. Which means that for the duration of his deployment, I'll get to field questions I can't answer over the Internet or phone until they start getting abusive. I'm dreading the possible deployment for that reason alone. The kid and I will be fine here, away from everyone we know and love. We'll cope. But his family... God, I hate my in-laws.

Dear Monster In-law, when I give you my son for the night like you begged me to do and you tell me "he did well considering how little he actually sees us." It makes me want to punch you. If you weren't so horrible to me you might see him more. Or maybe you could take the time to see us when we are in the area. It isn't my fault that your stupid church shit is more important to you. You were a neglectful mother and you aren't much better as a grandmother.

My husband and I had a huge fight yesterday.Every time he talks with his mom and dad they bring him so far down that he begins to act out. He was yelling so close to my face. I felt so disrespected! I am cutting his parents out of our life! they do more harm then good. He has deep emotional damage caused by them. I sent my father in-law a texted telling them i will make sure he doesn't speak to them. He has children to worry about for God sake!!They never call him. he has to call them. no bdays no holidays..nothing!but yet his mother will make this HUGE deal about her bday. Selfish people. UGH

My confession: I love my in-laws. They're so sweet and kind, I don't know what I'd do without them. When everyone complains about their's, I always feel so guily!

I feel like his mom really doesn't like me as much as she tries to make it seem. Or, at least not as much as the other daughter in-laws. Hope it's not a race thing. God, I hope it's not!

My in-laws just got the gun back from the Army that my BIL used to kill himself. It's been almost a year. There was still blood on it. I feel like the Army could have at least cleaned the damn thing before sending it to them, maybe have a little sensitivity for the family.

I'm pregnant and thinking about who I'd want to take care of my baby if something were to happen to me. I would love for my mother to take care of my daughter, but she's still married to my father and his a bipolar pervert. My in-laws are the kinds of people who would ruin her credit before she's five and their house is disgusting and my brother-in-law is a psycho. Wow. I guess I'm not allowed to die until this child is 18.
