hi everyone, just got here last week. we moved from virginia and it's been chaos. the kids are still adjusting, and honestly, so am i. spent all day trying to find decent groceries at Publix, paid way too much for diapers at Target. it's just... a lot. feel like I'm living out of boxes. anyone else a new spouse here or recently been through this?

@silverdawn Oh wow, welcome to Fort Benning! Publix can be a mission, right? I usually just stick to the one near the main gate. Hope the kids settle in soon!

@silverdawn Groceries are the WORST when you first get here. Don't even get me started on trying to find a decent deli counter. Hang in there!

@silverdawn I remember moving here and feeling like I was lost for weeks. If you need a break from unpacking, let me know, we're just a few miles out.

@silverdawn Publix! Yeah, that was a learning curve for me too. Try the one on Macon Road, it's usually a bit less chaotic. Good luck!

@silverdawn Oh girl, I hear you on the grocery store struggle! That Publix near the main gate is my go-to too, even if it means a bit of a wait. Hope the unpacking is almost done!

@silverdawn Welcome to the area! Don't even get me started on the deli counter. I usually just grab pre-packaged stuff when I'm in a pinch. Hope your kids are starting to feel more settled!

@silverdawn Yeah, finding your way around Fort Benning can be tricky at first. If you ever need a coffee break and a breather from all the boxes, my place is pretty close to the north end.

@silverdawn Publix was a whole thing for me too when we first got here. That one on Macon Road is definitely a better bet sometimes. Just keep at it, you'll find your rhythm!

@silverdawn The Macon Road Publix is where it's at! I swear I saw you there yesterday near the produce. It's way less packed than the one by the gate.
