I Just Keep Trying.

It has been almost two weeks since my last post on here. I have no excuse for this week but last week was premiere week so I was glued to the television. The only issue I have is CSI:Miami does not premiere until this Sunday. I just watched an extended preview and I am on pins and needles waiting. Other than that everything is good. It has rained just about all day today, and that is awesome. The temperature has drop slightly and there is a good breeze blowing. Hopefully it will help cure my homesickness. Friday I am going to try and get new glasses. We shall see how that goes. I am also going to get some new clothes and a new Bible, if I can find one I like. So, here is to a good week and hopefully an even better weekend. :)

And We Begin Again.

I think this makes my third comeback. I have been trying to keep this blog up for a while and it is not going according to plan. In my defense though I will say that a lot has happened since the birthday entry. I found out that after six years my "vintage" (I do enjoy when someone younger than me calls my belongings vintage) Mac Powerbook died. This was not a real issue until my husband deployed and he took the only remaining laptop with him. The last few weeks have been weird to say the least. I am currently borrowing a computer from a friend for which I am extremely grateful. Windows Vista on the other hand can take a long walk off a short pier. So the computer would not end up on my kitchen table like everything else; I bought one of those pre-fab desks for the "office" in our apartment. I was huffing and puffing my way up the stairs to the third floor with my fifty-eight pound desk my neighbor closes his door because I was distrubing his phone call. Lucky me. This is the same neighbor that barked at my dog at 0030, when his loud music and laughter (another party I missed) made Shadow just a little cranky. All that being said I hope to make more entries to the blog and keep everyone up to date on what is going on. As for my husband he is deployed and doing well. He is doing a lot of training, making communication next to nil and me sad but this is Army life. So, until the next time . . . Love, Peace and Hair Grease.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Today is the my birthday. And my very sweet, awesome husband bought me a car for my birthday. Yay! A red Kia Soul and it is so cool. Its get thirty miles to the gallon! Which is great because the truck only gets eight miles to the gallon. So, I now have my own island mobile. I have already put three hundrend miles on it. He bought it the fifteenth (just a little early). It makes Honolulu traffic a breeze. :)

Day Three

Today is a short entry because I am too tired to type and make sense. So, I am going to sign off early and post a longer entry tomorrow.

Day Two

It is day two of Karl's training and there is not much to report. We (Shadow and I) went on a "cat hunt." There was a black and white cat on the opposite side of the fence and I guess the cat thought the fence would not keep us away so the cat ran. So, of course Shadow had to run too. It was hilarious. I also made an old family reciepe, BBQ sloppy joes tonight for dinner. I am currently watching "Gridiron Gang," I love football movies. Anyway it is getting late and I think I will sign off for tonight.

Day One

Although it is almost over it is day one of the seven week separation. My husband, Karl, left for NTC morning at 0100. It has been a long day but it was generally good. My Yamaha Clavinova was delievered. And the repair man fixed the screen door. As for the ceiling that is a different story. It looks like the ceiling is leaking and starting to mildew and the only thing he is "fixed" it with caulking. Yes, caulking. I am not really sure how to feel about that. But I am calling the office next week and taking care of it. Other than that it has been a quiet day. I got the laundry finished, which was a real pain and I got my bed cleared off so I can sleep in there instead of on the couch tonight. I cheated today (on my blog, not my husband) I copied this from my Facebook notes and reposted it here. Tomorrow I plan to do better tomorrow. So good night blog-o-sphere peeps. :)
