We're bringing sexy back! That's us. Military Spouses. We can do it all.
While we are raising the kids, cooking, cleaning (or supervising the cleaning lady), grocery shopping, signing contracts with the Orthodontist, observing dance classes, ordering costumes, decorating for Christmas, buying gifts, convincing the 3 year old that she is a sheep and not a dog.... we find time to bring sexy back.
As I was in the checkout line at the Commissary on Monday morning, something caught my eye. No, it was not the Supersize Snickers. It was the huge letttering on Military Spouse Magazine - Bring Sexy Back.
So, of course, I bought it. When I got home and unloaded my groceries I sat down for lunch and read my new magazine. 9 ways to reignite your relationship after having a baby. #2. Take a Shower. Occasionally pause for a look in the mirror and try to show your husband you are trying to look nice for him.
Ok, that more than pissed me off, until I looked down and realized I had not showered that morning. I was wearing a lovely tan baseball cap, black pants, black flats and white sweatshirt with a drop of sweet chili sauce from my sushi summer roll.
Next article Keeping Control of the Family while he is deployed. I liked this one.... don't be surprised if you are more emotionally reactive, irritable, argue more frequently, struggle to stay focused on tasks, can't sleep, can't wake up.... this stage can last 3-6 weeks. I didn't need a magazine to tell me that. They say to "take control of the train". Whatever!
It was at that point I put threw the magazine away, finished my sushi and got back on track. Pick up kids, make supper, wash clothes and bring sexy back!
