Here is a topic for me. I have a very successful career as a Project Manager for a communications company and I have 2 kids. I have been lucky since I have been on Mat. leave with my children throughout this tour. Let me just add that I have the most respect for stay at home mom's. Because I...

Thanks for the link Gunner. For those that don't know. My hubby is in the Infantry. He has along with his company been through some rough stuff that I could not even imagine. This is the reason I started this thread. I am sorry I should of included this in my original post. As some members...

Thanks Gunner, I haven't' heard about any information sessions in regards to this. But I will keep my eyes open. I do have a question it may sound out of left field but I want to ask it. I have 2 small children. My 3yr old always jumps on Daddy to wake him up. I have heard that she shouldn't...

Hey Everyone, Well as of you some of you know my husband is coming home from Afghanistan in just over a month. YEAH !!!!!! It has been a rough tour. He is always on the Front lines it seems and has seen more then I would understand. This is our first tour and I have read so much information...

Well I found this on another site that I am on. I found it very moving. I hope you do to. I was not sure where to post this. Yes it is american however the message is the same for all spouses everywhere. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqBtPtgjWX8&search=wives

okay I am going to answer the special requirement since I have been on EI during MAT. leave. I am assuming it is across the board. An employee must work 600 hours over the last 52 weeks to qualify. If they had to leave their position ( quit) they must fill in a whole wack of paperwork...

First of all Welcome to Edmonton! Well you better phone EI to begin with to find out the requirements however you may need to supply them with a posting message. It is hard to claim EI when you quit but you can in special circumstances which this is. I would phone to double check though...

Well I thought I would put my 2 cents in. Hubby is never on base however with that said. He actually was in camp for Canada day. He loved that Timmies was there and he got to try an ice lata closest thing to a slurpee he could find( not sure what it is called cause I only drink coffee) He said...

Hey Dee, I would send Pictures too and Porn is always a favorite for everyone. I would like to say Welcome to Military life where nothing is for sure and you always have a MAYBE. Hopefully you get to see your Boy Friend between course but like Para says it all depends and nothing is for sure...

Well Here is my 2 cents. Born and raised in Manitoba and worked in Winnipeg. Now living in the PMQ's in Edmonton. Both cities have their plus and negatives. Winnipeg- I have found ( personal opinion) has the friendliest people around. I also find that Winnipeg comes together to support great...

Reading this post makes me wonder if the girlfriend or his family read information about the cycle of deployments. I think that if they read any information this would not have occurred like it has now. I also seem to think they did not attend any pre deployment sessions. I received important...

Alberta can Manitoba can't Hope that helps

This happens all the time and not just from the Military. One incident here on Base which I will always remember. My Hubby was home on leave and we took our son for his first hair cut to the base barber shop. While the kids were getting their haircut the next hair dresser was swearing up a...

Well I just thought I would add my 2 cents. Attend all the meetings with your BF's they give some great information. I believe the Rear party uses the NOK paperwork to call the spouses or girlfriends. I know a friend of ours GF gets called and emailed all the time. Like the above posts of...

First of all Welcome to the site. I am glad to see that you are finishing off your degree. As to your other questions it all depends on where you want to live where he gets posted. If you want to live in Military housing depending if it is available in your particular posting you can claim...
