NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS FOR THE SOLDIER’S WIFE

Hey guys,

I know you must have missed me here. I’m so so sorry, have been studying and writing a couple of professional exams.

Well, Guess What?…..Treasure is back!

Wishing you a Happy New Year…….thanks for spending time here………I love you all.

Happy New Year to my soldier, my hero, my husband and children…….when I count my blessings, I count you guys multiple times. You’re all I could ever ask for. You guys are special and I love you with every beat of my heart.

How can I forget my amazing relatives???

Happy New Year to my own very large family……..you all rock!

Wishing everyone a prosperous 2019!!!.

I thank God for his sufficient grace. Indeed 2018 was an amazing year. I give God all the glory.

Hey Ladies,

Check out this piece of advice from me to you this new year.

We all know military life rarely goes as planned. It often comes with lots of flavors of happiness and grief. It could be death, loss of friendship or stability…….thanks to frequent moves.

I know about it all because I’m living it. Let me tell you this secret…..I’m that soldier’s wife who used to be clueless but didn’t stay clueless….YAY!!

A toast to every soldier’s wife that fell apart and put herself back together!.

HERE ARE A FEW NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS FOR THE SOLDIER’S WIFE.

SELF CARE

Practice self care. It’s the best thing you can do for yourself. Always take care of your mental and physical health.

SET GOALS

January is always the time to make new year resolutions. For most people, before they know it, several Januarys have passed without getting those goals accomplished.

This New Year, resolve to act!. Human beings tend to remember and worry about goals they couldn’t accomplish more than the goals they accomplished.

Trust me, it can weigh someone down. Set goals you want and can reach.

LOOK FOR THE RIGHT JOB or LAUNCH YOUR BUSINESS

Although the military have their numerous policies, your career is not one of them. Return to work or expand your professional experience.

Get a job that will make you build a career and fulfill your dreams. Military wives have successful careers in all types of industries across a wide range of fields. You too can.

VOLUNTEER WITH AN ORGANISATION

Thanks to internet. There are several organisations with vacancies for volunteers. I encourage you to find some amazing opportunities.

Volunteering is it’s own full time job with amazing benefits.

PAY YOURSELF

Invest in yourself whether you are employed or not. Once you receive your pay or that standing order alert notifying you, transfer a dedicated amount to a savings account immediately and try not to touch it.

As  your soldier is promoted and his earning raises, increase your pay as well. Ensure that all your kids also have their savings account and it is credited on a monthly basis.

HAVE A SOCIAL LIFE

Being married to a soldier is not easy. Military life can be stressful on families. For instance, long separations, frequent moves, late nights in the office etc. can make some people depressed.

But, Hey…..you can be a whole happy person. We have the unique opportunity to see the world and live in places we never thought we could. Why don’t you spice it up with a good social life?.

Today is the first day of January 2019.

Once again, Happy New Year !!!.

Gather with friends and family, and enjoy all that you have around you.

I’ll see you soon!.
