I'll be moving to my first army base sometime before September. Do any of you know if I'll be allowed to open a day care on base or will I have to attempt to find a job at one in order to work.

*I do have a degree and all the requirements.

It may depend on the state that you are moving to. We are on the west coast and there are guidelines for providers.

One option is to go to the state website and look at their requirements. Also, go to the base site and see if there is a link to an ombudsman who may be able to help you (just in case there are different rules for onbase).

Good luck!

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
