My smile is that I got to see my grandson today. The one who has been in the Marine Corps for the last 4 years. He is almost discharged. He picked me up at the car repair shop where I dropped my car off and then he took me out for breakfast. It was great seeing him again.

Advocate for mental health and invisible illnesses
My name is Tessa Dean and I am an author and blogger. My writing styles vary and I love writing using prompts.
I am also writing my first book, a Memoir entitled "Government Property - A Memoir of a Military Wife". This is being published on the blog rather than the traditional way. I am putting up chapters as I go along. I keep my blog filled with useful content, stories, and poems. Plenty to keep you busy. I have also been interviewed by blogs and had other posts published on many different blogs. I also wrote a series of articles on Bipolar Disorder for IBPF (International Bipolar Foundation).
I am in my 60’s and disabled which allows me plenty of time to write to my heart’s content.
I live in southern New Jersey and have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. My oldest grandchild is a Sargent in the United States Marine Corps.

Glad you saw your son. In today’s world, seeing any family is plus!
Thanks but it was actually my grandson. My son is in NC and I haven’t seen him since the pandemic was in full force back in March/April. I have no idea when I will see him again. This was my first grandchild and he’s a full grown adult who served his country and is now out. Hard to believe how fast they grow.
Sorry about the mistake. I haven’t seen any of my family members, excepting Zoom meetings, since the 4th of July, 2019, so over a year and a half. It is tough. Anyway, glad you saw your grandchild. The years do just fly by….
Honest mistake, no harm, no foul. So I have recently seen 3 out of the 5 grandchildren and my one daughter and her husband. They weren’t long meetings, but hey I got to see them other than in pictures.
