lol, I found this pretty amusing... thanks for all your comments!

Hey all..it's been awhile since I've last posted...we're moved here, and settled in, still taking some getting used to. We're living on base, in lovell court, not the best housing, but I'm definitely happy we chose to live on base. I was wondering if anyone could tell me of any good nail salons...

Hey! Actually, I contacted the housing office at Pax River, and she sent me the housing application, and everything we need to send in with it, to apply for housing. The lady didn't say anything about there being a wait though, so I'm hoping there won't be! Even if there is a wait, it'll be...

hey everyone! First, I want to again say thank you for all the advice you've posted, my husband and I really appreciate it. With that being said, I just wanted to tell everyone that we've decided that we want to live on base, so hopefully that will work out. With all the stress already involved...

Yeah, I definitely agree as to the "it is what you make of it" part of what you said...that's why it threw me for a loop when I was reading all these bad things, not in here, but through some other places...because I'm actually pretty excited to go there. I've been in Pensacola since October...

wow, thanks for the overwheliming reponse everyone! I had a blonde momenth last night with the whole glen forest thing, i did know they were on base housing, but in all my frustration of trying to figure this out, I didn't even realize that's what people were talking about! Lol, I get wound up...

oh no, i really appreciate everyone's input...it's just certainly not the saving grace i had hoped it would be. It's just hard, because I feel this area down here isn't very good, and I can't compare it to up there. The Indian Bridge apartments seemed like a save for me, but I've heard nothing...

Thanks for your input...yeah, apparently my husband is working a "minimal military" job. You're right, I count my lucky stars all the time now that we've got these orders, knowing that he won't get deployed, but this seems to just be becoming more and more stressful. I feel like if we live off...

didn't someone mention that lusby was over a bridge to get to the base? Because if it's the bridge I'm thinking of, i've heard alot of complaints about the traffic

45.81 distribution charge? that is ridiculous...so basically, I'd be looking at, at the least, around $150 a month...that's real cute...thanks for the heads up though!

really? Well that's slightly discouraging...how about st. mary's landing, or spring valley? anyone have any contact info, and rent info for this glen forest place i keep hearing of? I can't find anything for it online...wow, this is so frustrating, I can't go talk to anyone on base yet because...

The good news is I don't smoke, lol. Yeah, we'll be shopping at the comissary, so that will save us some. The apartments I'm looking at are called Indian Bridge and they are owned by cherry cove. It's a two bedroom apartment, 865 sq ft, which is similar to what we're living in now, and it's...

...speaking of which...i am members of other forums, such as the ones for navy wives, and i've posted questions like this over in those, and i've hardly gotten any response, which is a shock, so I'm assuming that this base is pretty small, and I know that with the alignment/closure contract...

Yeah, where I'm from, there's a town where amish are very predominant, at the grocery store there are "buggy parking spots" for the amish! I guess I just want to be somewhere that reminds me of home, and I think MD is going to do the trick . I put our kw/h usage into the estimator on the SMECO...

Lol, call me crazy, but that's what I'm looking for! I come from a small town in Michigan, my graduating class was 100 ppl, to me, home equals acres for a yard....our nearest mall was an hour away, I like my space! So can anyone tell me what to expect for monthly bills if we don't decide to...
