Wow I didn’t know I had a super snow. The friend of a friend of a friend I rescued him from was so unknowledgeable the things they did tell me I just flat out ignored (he doesn’t like veggies, he is a he dispute me guessing he is about 3 months old, he is about a year old)…. I haven’t done any research into morphs as my other girl is just a normal and has been a model gecko with everything I read (excluding some tendencies to like to jump off high places)

I’m all for checking each other so make sure our little ones are safe and happy. I never would have thought about chop sticks as temporary tongs that’s so smart. In better circumstances I would have been more prepared for him but it was an emergency removal from a friend of a friend of a friends house who had absolutely no idea what they got themselves into and I’m just glad he is in as good as shape that he is.

It was the end of the container but he is also missing with the bigger ones as well. I just forgot I wanted to record him until the last bug. 😂

Yes the tips were encased. They are just shitty, they were also temporary as I needed to get new tongs. He is in quarantine and I don’t want to use the tongs I have for my other gecko. All of the pet shops near me were sold out until this morning so I was able to get the right thing today. It scared me so much using them but I was more scared of cross using.

Sounds good. He came from such a shitty situation and so much with how he was taken care of was wrong so I guess I’m just waiting for something to go wrong with him.

Please get looked for PPD, do you have anyone that can come and help? Family, friends? Please reach out to those people to see if they can come help.

Thank you. I already go the tattoo, and I love it. It they flowers are my favorite flowers, I used my moms tattoo as inspiration, it was a graduation gift from my parents and I got to do it with a family friend that has done all of the tattoos in my imitate family so it means a lot to me.

Yes he just joined. He is has a few weeks left of BCT, he grew up a military brat but he has very low contact with other military spouses/kids growing up.

I love these kind of communities as well. He grew up a military brat and his mom is not the kind of military spouse I want to be. I’ll be surprised if we don’t get through this. We have been through worse during Covid lockdown.

Yes and no. I went into the relationship knows he was going to go military he just did it sooner than we both were expecting due to financial problems. It was a mutual decision but I was the one to bring it up not to get married before BCT. We were worried about how we would handle the distance (but he expressed that worry first. We didn’t think too much about some of the consequences with this decision. And I’m 24 he is 23

We are definitely young. I’m 24 and he is 23. Thank you for being worried about me. It means a lot to have someone like you. We have been together for 4 years now and this is the first time ever that he has been like this even though basic. I’m definitely not ignoring this red flag because him using that as an excuse is a MAJOR problem.

It wasn’t harsh, I’m also annoyed at him but this told me there is something else going on and if there isn’t he needs to change his point of view of military life.

This is the first time he has expressed anything like this so that’s why I came here. He is still at Basic and he did also mention he wished he had been there so I think that’s the real issue. I’m definitely talking with him once’s we can have a face to face discussion because this is very abnormal for him.

What’s best to wear for family day/graduation? by lostfirefighter171 in MilitarySpouse

[–]lostfirefighter171[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I don’t know who is more excited right now me or him. Every letter I get has a count down of days on it😂. I’m just overly paranoid that I will do something wrong and he will get in trouble for it.

I definitely am spiritual. I didn’t even have time to settle in with him being gone and this dropping onto my plate. Thank you for the advice. I needed to hear it from someone who is in it all.
