I don’t like complaining & I really hate people feeling bad for me & I know my stuff is easy compared to most military families... so when my friends & family ask, I smile and say we’re just fine, but I’m here to tell all of you it sucks!

My husband & I just moved across the country away from everyone we know onto a base for the 1st time & it’s not what I expected at all. Idk I think I hyped it up in my mind so I’d be excited, but I’m so disappointed. All “cool things to do” have weird or non existent hours. My husband is a lot busier than I expected/am accustom to. The sense of community I was expecting is non existent & I get it, every person is dealing with their own crap. My toddler is not adjusting very well & hasn’t been sleeping well (aka I’m not getting any sleep). All the people in my husbands class are single pretty much, so there are no wives to connect to there. I know this is all really small stuff but I just feel really alone and overwhelmed & it sucks and I don’t want to say that to my husband or friends or family, so I’m saying it to you all. This Sucks.
