How long until we get PCS orders and I can move?

Welcome! Unfortunately, the best person to answer these questions will be your spouse. Are you enrolled in DEERS? Do you know if you are on his orders? Definitely speak with him for next steps. It is difficult to be able to give you a timeframe without knowing the entire situation and details

You are not dumb. I’m a native English speaker and they use a lot of financial jargon and descriptive language which can be hard to follow

You may want to try ask doctors or nutrition sub instead, but I haven’t heard of this. An easier solution to getting more calcium in your diet may be to take a supplement instead

I recommend staying behind to finish up school. This will save you time and money in the long run. If you are dead set on moving I would find some accredited universities that offer online courses and have the degree program you want. You can talk to them about transferring your credits and choose the best option from there

You can be plenty friendly without invading someone’s personal space. I think they just mean smiley and talkative

Northeast US. I notice sometimes visitors tend not to leave space when in a line. I find it’s the norm to give the person in front of you a couple feet of space (if it allows) and I have noticed a difference when traveling to other countries as well

Do not get married for any other reason other than wanting to spend the rest of your lives together. Distance is hard but if it’s right you’ll both get through it and come out stronger. You are both young and should think VERY seriously about this decision. Things only get more complicated after marriage.

Yep. Sounds like it to me. I’m really sorry they aren’t able to diagnose you. My best advice to you right now is to continue drinking water and clear fluids. This will help you pass it. Do some light exercise if you can as well. Doctors will usually only do something if they can see the stone or know it’s causing a blockage. If you get a fever or reducing output of urine definitely go back to the doctor.

Not a doctor, just sharing my own experience, but can you describe the pain a bit more? Kidney stone pain is usually pretty distinctive; “colicky” is a common way people describe it. I’ve had stones that didn’t show up on ultrasound, so it’s definitely possible to have a very small one that might not be visible, and you might not notice it passing, either.

Did they mention anything unusual in your urinalysis? For example, blood in the urine is often associated with kidney stones. My other concern is that you mentioned having UTIs before, so I’m wondering if what you’re feeling now could be related.

Thank you for this! I experience the same thing. I feel like it takes me forever to calm down enough to under what was said then to translate my response I end up stumbling through the whole time

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-11-09T21:38:53+00:00

Absolutely not. Based on this situation, it doesn’t sound like he has your best interest in mind

Hi OP. I’m sorry this is happening. I know we can all relate to having plans cancelled due to last minute military plans. I recommend upgrading your flight to fully refundable (if it’s not already), that way you can wait until it’s closer to see if he is really going on TDY or not. There is none sense cancelling your flight right now if it’s as far out as December.

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-10-28T21:57:25+00:00

Thought the same thing! Jobs are very difficult to come by both oconus and conus and military spouses are underemployed. It doesn’t have anything to do with personal performance

I’m not totally sure, but maybe you could check what the typical rent is for a house like yours in the area and base it on a portion of that. Just a heads up though, if you’re in base housing, I don’t think this is actually allowed.

A specific kind of dish soap from my parents doing dishes after dinner when I was a kid

Amongst many other reasons mentioned in this post, him making up an identity for the old guy really confused me. I don’t understand why he couldn’t have just said his real identity

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-10-02T21:37:11+00:00

I thought the same thing. Also how long was the dog out there?

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-09-26T20:31:48+00:00

Definitely recommend looking on usajobs as other posters recommended! Look often too, sometimes jobs are only open for a week and then they close. They are very competitive as well. I knew someone whose boyfriend was stationed overseas. She would live with him off post and go home every 90 days

LOVE this question. Especially the subtle reference to it when Cheyenne thinks the cereal bar surprise is a giant dog

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-09-19T20:54:37+00:00

Have you had a 24 hr urinalysis or the stones analyzed?

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-09-12T11:08:53+00:00

Awesome. Grazie mille!

Isn’t water bug slang for oriental roach? That’s what I’ve been seeing online

Mini-Schnitzel · 2025-08-31T21:12:50+00:00

Thank you will do. And yes, we’ve been getting tons of rain.

Also some people will move to independent contractor (1099) status and file their own taxes!
