I’ve been living as a single dad for a while now as my wife is in a different country.

Women, our life without you is not easy for sure! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Brother, you said a mouthful there. Shortly after I came back from the Gulf War, I suddenly found myself in a whole different war. This time around I found myself a single parent, a soldier, and desperately trying to balance the two. Along the way, I met a lot of single moms, and my question always was, “How the hell do they manage it?”
    I mean I knew one girl, she had two girls, was working three different jobs, and still managed to keep the girls good to go, keep a spotless house, and so on.
    I on the other hand was doing the Soldier gig with cooking meals, keeping the house straightened up, cooking meals, washing clothes, and trying to squeeze in a few hours sleep here and there.
    I’m still trying to figure out how I managed to do that for two and half years.
    I finally had to leave the Army, making the choice that being a parent was a greater calling, moved someplace cheaper to live, and managed somehow to make things work.
    Oh, what happened to aforementioned girl?
    I married her. Happily married twenty-five years comes August.

    Sad to hear, Mohamad. Do you have any idea how long this will be? Hopefully, not too long, though, any length of time is too long…
