Looking for a job fair? Don't know where to start? The job fair may be local but the listings are hanging out in cyberspace.
Your best bet for finding a job fair near you is to first check our listing, posted the first week of every month. If you happen to miss that, you can go straight to the organizations that host the events.
I have started a new volunteer adventure over the past few months and I wanted to share my experience with you all.
If you crank the tunes when you hit the books, you may be giving yourself a mental boost. While studies on the effects of music on the brain abound, there’s also a wide range of findings. But the research seems to support at least one key benefit: music tends to help people stick with a project.
It happened.
Until now, I’ve managed to avoid sharing my Facebook life with a co-worker. Then, I had to create a Facebook page for my job and the clients I manage. My co-worker joined it. No big deal. It’s all official work-related info.
Then, she sent me a request to join my personal page.
Ummmmm ….. crud.
In our life in the military, separation is nothing new. We’re apart during trainings, schools, TDY’s, field exercises and that dreaded “D” world. But though Jason and I have been married almost thirteen years, we’ve never been separated by choice.
That’s about to change.
We’re about to be separated for eight months, or even longer, and for the first time.

WARNING! The following is a vent concerning a particular incident that occurred this week at the civilian personnel office at my current duty station. It is one I’m sure others can relate to.
We’ve all been there … trying to get through the gate. Sometimes we’re late, sometimes we’re sick, sometimes we just have screaming children in the backseat and the need to just get home. Inevitably, those are the days we will be stuck in the line behind “that guy.”
You know “that guy.” He’s the one that tried rolling onto your installation without the proper ID and holds up progress for every single person ready to continue their day.
All I wanted to do was give the guy money. I had a bill to pay. I wanted to pay it. But I had to prove it was my account first. So, I gave the telephone operator my name, address and account number.
Have you ever met that one military spouse who was so overly positive about military life that it was just annoying? They even talk about being grateful for it?!
How many schools have your kids attended since starting kindergarten?
Military kids change schools a lot, that's no secret. What often is hard to find is the best schools at your new duty station, especially if you live off base. There are two websites that we love that can help make the processing of choosing a school much easier.
