Default Re: Tell me we're not crazy.....

Are you crazy?

No. You're married to a pilot. Although that in and of itself MAY make you a crazy person (just kiddin'). It comes with the territory. At least you don't have to move or change your job. One of my husbands' friends who is also a pilot have been married for about 10 years and have only lived together (in the same house, in the same state) for the last 2 years. Before that he was working all over the country. Anywhere he could find a job. She stayed in Chicago cause she had a good job there.

This industry is going to present alot of challenges along the way. From long commutes, to job/base changes, to furloughs, to constant SCARES of furloughs, etc. It's not easy. But remember that he really appreciates and needs your support. Every stage of his career is going to present a new set of challenges, but also new opportunities. Maybe to live in a new place, or maybe it's travel benefits, whatever. You just have to remember that you're being a supportive wife and come here and vent if you need to.

Good luck!
