How Big Is Your Net?

Posted on September 23, 2011 at 6:44am 0 Comments

Since creating NAMMAS two years ago, I have learned that a person's social and professional net worth is directly proportional to their network.  This basically means you can be of little value to those around you unless your network extends beyond your small circle of friends.

 

Here's what I mean:

 

This week has been one of my most fun ever! There were back-to-back events that I was invited to attend and since I love to be where moms of service members and…

Where did summer go??

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 11:03am 0 Comments

Every year it seems summer gets shorter and shorter! It's been a world-wind for my family and me...we just completed a second move in a year.  It was a local move, but still involved the packers, boxes, the logistics, the letting go, the keeping close, the....EVERYTHING! There's still something refreshing though about starting over.  It's a clean start.  Another opportunity to finally get as organized as I've always wanted to be. 

On top of all that, two of my kids started…

Many, many congratulations on the birth of your son!  How awesome for you and your family!  Also, thank you for starting this website, I cannot tell you how liberating it is for me.  When my son went through boot camp, there was nothing, no support groups, no websites to view him or the goings on...we were totally blind, and knew nothing about what was going on with him so very far from home.  My son has been in 6 years now, and has accepted orders to take him to England for 4 years.  None of my friends at home understand the hurt, frustration and helplessness you feel about not seeing your child for years...or deployments, or anything military.  This group understands everything I feel!!!  Now I have met truly some of the most wonderful women in my life, and I am planning on getting together with one of them this weekend from my home state of Michigan!  She has also directed me to some support groups in our state and in my area, and I feel like I am not so alone anymore! I have also talked to another mom from a neighboring state about getting together this summer.  I find can share all of my experiences with other Military Mommies which has been awesome!  Thank you again for creating  a forum for all of the women who need to have a support bra!  Much love and respect, Marti Knoll

Thank you for the advice, Lori :) My hubby graduated from Marine Corps boot camp on Dec 10th, so this whole lifestyle is still new to me. I'm doing lots of research, but I'm also a freelance writer & author, so keeping myself busy is a good thing for my mind & my career! :) January is a bit of a lull month, as folks gear up for the start of the new year & really get moving again. Getting through 3 months of boot camp wasn't nearly as tough as I thought it would be, so 1 month of training shouldn't be so hard.

Thank you so much for the Thumbs Up gift :) I really needed that this week ... been having a very hard time with my husband being gone for training.

Hey Lori -- maybe why people aren't finishing the survey:  if you choose "other", and type in your answer, it comes back and says you must select an answer, but there is no box to check (at least on my Mac).  Keep up the great work!
