20) Trying to remember my last five addresses for any new forms I have to fill out.

21) What was my doctor’s name at our last base again?

22) Learning the seat belt laws in a new state. Are the kids out of boosters, or do they need to use them for their senior prom?

23) Having to find another “in case of emergency” contact at your new base.

24) The question, “So… where are you from?”

25) Finding a great hairdresser in a new town. Honestly, finding a good gynecologist is easier.

26) Waiting for orders…so you will know if your life is going to be turned upside down…so you can single handedly find a way to turn it right side up again.

27) MYCAA eligibility rules.

28) The insane number of debt collection calls we get every time we get a new local phone number.

29) Tag chasers…enough said.

30) Being referred to as “JUST” National Guard.

31) Practicing breathing and relaxation exercises during birth classes with the instructor…because you are the only one without a partner.

32) Going to a gas station that requires a ZIP code to pay at the pump. What ZIP code? The one now, or where we just came from? Did I change that with the bank yet?

33) Having friends and family in all the time zones and constantly forgetting who you can call, at what time… and forget trying to figure out what time it is in Afghanistan with that weird half hour time difference!

34) Long lines at the post office…

35) Acting as an acronym translator for your non-military friends and family.
