1. What’s one thing in the past month you would have changed?
LB's diagnosis of ASD.
2. What was your favorite thing that happened in May?
LB's diagnosis of ASD. It's a double-edged sword... it sucks that he will have to deal with Aspergers for his entire life, but it allows us to get the help he needs, which means he'll be able to deal with it quicker and better.
3. June includes the first day of summer… what are your plans for the summer?
My plans? I don't have many. I will be dealing with a deployment most of the summer... and fall... and part of the winter. The rest of this year will be very light on husband interaction. :( But we're taking advantage of our remaining free time! This weekend, we will be journeying out to Forks for some cheesy Twilight tourism. I'm pretty sure you can buy a Werewolf Burger or a Cullen Clam Chowder, followed up by a Bella Banana Split.
4. Do you use the services on base (gym, financial planning, family services, daycare)? And if so, what’s your favorite one? (thanks to Shanon at Modern Meets Traditional for this question!)
I would like to! Really, I would. But the drop-in child care is almost always full, even when I call several weeks in advance. Which means, I don't use the gym (we have a Y membership, anyway, that we love). I barely even shop at the commissary or exchange any more, since discovering extreme couponing. I mostly go on base for the SOSA meetings.
5. What are you looking forward to in June?
Warmer weather and deployment... deployment only because we're at the point where waiting for it is so much worse than actually saying goodbye.

I remember one deployment when we dropped off my husband at work, had a sad goodbye moment, and drove away. Then he showed up on our doorstep three hours later. His flight was delayed until the next day because the plane needed repair or something. We were all so happy to have a little more time together. Then... it happened two more times for other various reasons! By the third time I was like, "Just go already!" Goodbyes are hard enough let alone having to do them over and over.
