ReplyDeletethe "are you friends with other military wives" question made me laugh :-P i swear, the drama that military wives get involved in can be so much worse than highs school!! it's sad!!! hahaha... but i guess in a way, it's nice to know that Navy wives aren't the only crazy ones out there! sounds like the Air Force has it's share of crazies too! :-)
