if you have a joint account-put him on an allowance and stick too it-its amazing what they can find to spend money on in a third world country-but they do-and they dont tend to be very aware of what they are spending-i have a huge box of stuff my husband has purchased on e-bay in his down time-and hes only been in country about 6 weeks-trust me we had a heart to heart about that
Haha, I agree 100% about this. My husband had been over there for a month when he bought a top of the line road bike on Ebay for several thousand dollars....and justified it because it was worth several thousand more! Nevermind the fact that I had to move it cross country, or that he wouldn't even ride it for 8 months...ugh. I'm still not over that lol. After that, he really didn't buy anything big the rest of deployment though.
Keep busy, don't watch the news, and make sure you have a current address. My husband's changed about 4 times before they finally got the right one, and he let me know before the unit contact even did. Good luck, hope the deployment flies by for you both.
Thank you! I am glad we made the decision that I will stay in our apartment until he gets back. I HATE moving and wouldn't want to do it without him, we live on the third/top floor of our building
