Been a long time
Well, I just noticed that it’s been an indecently long time since I have written. And I guess it’s high time I got it together and updated. Its down to the last weeks before my husband returns from this latest deployment. I am excited and nervous. Nervous that he has a mental image of what the house we moved into almost a year ago looks like, and that the expectations are high. There’s still a lot of unpacked boxes and odds and ends I haven’t quite figured out what to do with in this new house. It has been busy. It seems like every day a thousand things are on…
Haze Gray Matter
I think the most irritating thing about my dear military husband is that he likes to pretend that I don’t know what he is up to. Let me explain: I took a short trip this past weekend to visit my mother. He was supposed to have been on that trip, but his ship’s schedule changed at the last minute so he had to stay behind to get underway while I was gone.
Summer is Coming
I have been on a movie binge of late. Maybe I am shaking the dust off and getting back to the movies after the long sabbatical at home? Last night we went to the opening of Iron Man. I enjoyed it, but the kids loved it even more. My youngest son couldn’t keep himself from clapping anytime Iron Man demolished something or looked to be ready to triumph over the bad guys.
Attack of the PMS Avenger
Once a month my alter ego takes over. She's emotional, irrational, and very irritable. I call her the PMS Avenger, and this month she was particularly unavoidable.
Vice Device
Stayed up too late reading, my son almost missed the bus, and he went to school without breakfast. The constant failures of motherhood, summed up in one morning.
