Here are a few of my favorite resources I have found online for those inevitable deployments, and stressful PCS moves. Anything from my go-to blog to amazing companies that will make your PCS move and deployments easier to manage. I am so excited to share these resources with you! Share in the comments your go-to blogs and must-haves, when preparing for a deployment or PCS.

Military spouses are stronger together, so here's to happier and easier deployments and PCS moving experiences!

Soldiers Wife, Crazy Life

 

Julie is the owner of Soldier's Wife, Crazy Life, a blog to help support other military spouses through deployments, PCS moves, or anything else military life throws at you.

She has been a military spouse for almost 15 years, with her husband having served in the active-duty Army and now the Army National Guard.

They have lived in Germany, and Tennessee during their time as a military family, have three boys and have been through four deployments.

She loves to read, write, and be apart of the milspouse blogging community.

BoxOps

PCS Moving Must-Have

Shea is an Army wife with two kids, and the owner of BoxOps!

She started working on her business in 2018 after a horrible move. Previously they had always moved themselves so this was a big wake-up call.

That's when she realized that if she had been more organized & aware of the process, it would have been so much smoother - so I set out to help others be more prepared!

She started out trying to improve what was available with some basic color-coded moving labels and it snowballed from there - they've evolved a lot over time and now she is launching new designs soon that will offer the best functionality on the market!
