The Life and Times of a Navy Husband

My new post, To Buy or not to Buy, is up at Milspouse.com.

There’s a little voice in my head that keeps telling me buying a house is a lot like jumping into a pool: you don’t know if the water is quite warm enough, but the other swimmers say it is, and you dip your foot in and it feels OK, maybe a little cool. But the only way to know for sure is to dive right in and find out for yourself.

My fear is not irrational.
