And with this new chapter, I'm taking on the challenge of keeping a blog to record the highs and lows of life on the other side of deployment.
Let's get one thing straight from the start: I am not claiming to be doing anything heroic. Alongside me were dozens of other mums, with babes in arms or toddlers running around their feet - some with both. This blog isn't about self promotion.
Rather, this is a little dare to myself - do I have the discipline, writing style and skill to keep this going for a whole 7 months? Only time will tell.
Also, I'm hoping it will help in some way to fill those wonderfully therapeutic conversations Mark and I usually have at the end of the day. A chance to unload from the day's events, share the key moments and just take some time out for me.
Finally - and probably most importantly, it's about offering a quick and easy way for Mark and my closest family and friends (all of whom live far too far away from me) to see what is going on.
