So, yeah … it’s been one of those weeks. Good then bad. Up then down. This-is-nice then holy-cow-let-me-off-this-roller-coaster! Read through to hear about AND to enter to win a VERY cute giveaway!
one … good
My first post this week, You Might Be a Chief’s Spouse If, was pretty popular! You guys shared it on Facebook almost 2000 times! Thanks! You rock! In fact, you guys rocked my blog stats all week long! Comments, shares, and likes were way up which for a blogger is like walking into a Chocolate and Wine Store advertising calorie-free everything!
two … better
As you may have seen on Facebook, on Tuesday night I had the opportunity to speak with the Bama Gold FRG about the Cycle of Deployment, honestly one of my favorite topics to talk about! We had a great time, and I thought to myself, “Jodi, you should do that more often!” So here it is … a brand new Guest Speaking page on the blog offering my services as a FREE Guest Speaker at your FRG meeting or event. This is for the local folks, of course (unless you plan on footing a plane ticket 
).
three … not as good
I’ve had my eyes on the prize of going back to work the instant Alli goes to school basically since Alli was born five years ago. This week … well, I had a setback. My family needs me at home for a little while longer. I’ve loved being a stay-at-home mom, but I’ve dreamed about going back to work for a long time now. Whomp-whomp-whomp …
four … looking up
But then I saw this quote on Facebook, and my mood and viewpoint immediately shifted. Seriously. Since I can’t work the way I wanted to originally … well … the only thing I can say right now is where there’s a will there’s a way, and I have the WILL!
five … and YOU’RE the best!
I absolutely LOVE military spouses (you were the HIGHLIGHT of my week, right?), and when the lovely milspouse behind Sandy Kisses offered to giveaway one of these ADORABLE signs to one of my amazing readers, I said YES! YES! YES!
I shared THIS photo on Instagram recently of the adorable Sandy Kisses sign hanging in my house right now, and I love it! Great quality and just plain fun!
