[quote=Anonymous]Ugh, I’m sorry. DH is deployed now and I have a new baby so get it. Outsource what you can. If this means you need to have grocery delivery, dry cleaning things you would normally hand wash, or hiring a cleaning service, then go for it. That tax-free deployment income will offset it nicely. As for support, if somebody offers to help (one of those, if you need something, please let me know) take them up on it! I have always been really terrible at doing that but sometimes you just need a helping hand (especially if you are new to an area or do not have family around). And don’t be afraid to ask for help, from friends or neighbors, or look to your husband’s commands. Somebody “should” be checking in from the family support group or his chain of command, but if not, no the resources to reach out to. Hang in there![/quote]
