Another Last Day But Then We Begin Again

Today was the last day of Masterlife 2. Next week we move on to Masterlife 3. I need to go back over all of the first two but I am not sure when I will have time over the next several weeks. But we will see you make time for what is important to you. Anyway, that is really all I can say for today. I am really tired. Since it is Sunday I got up at 5:00AM. I could mention there was no hot water this morning but that is a story for some one who wants to complain which I do not at this point in the day because the day turned out pretty good in the end.

A Relaxing Day

We ran around the island today, did not do to much. It was a good day. I used some of my gift cards from Christmas and Valentine's Day. I bought some really nice things, including food or at least a food product. Now it is time for me to read my Sunday school lesson and relax until I drift off to sleep. A good day was today, tomorrow will be an even better day. Good Night.

Almost Caught Up

Today was a slow day. We shopped at the Scofield Exchange and Commissary. We went to McDonald's and then we traversed North Shore. We were trying to catch a couple of beaches before Merly and Daniel leave. Of course Daniel was asleep for most of the trip. I have worked on some more of the missed blogging but it getting late and I am about to pass out so I think I will call it a night and hopefully finish tomorrow. Good Night.

Filling in the Blanks

I have not had Internet for over a week now. I just got it up and running today finally. I just wanted to let everyone know that I will fill in the blanks for the missed week, probably tomorrow night after a run to the beach and a few other errands. :)

Clearance is an Awesome Thing

I remembered what I did on Monday. We went to the Navy Exchange and I planned on buying a television but the very cool sales person told me they were going on clearance on Wednesday and I could get a free Blueray player with the purchase. So, guess what I did? I waited on until Wednesday and got the television on clearance and the Blueray player. I am very glad for the sales person that told me about the sale.

The Last Day

Today was my last day of Tuesday morning Bible study for a while. I am sad but happy. I am glad I am finished and can move on to the next project but sad to see this come to an end. We dropped Merly's 4-Runner off at the shipping company. Then we went to lunch at The Cheesecake Factory. I had the most wonderful chicken and biscuits. And top it all off I had a peach smoothie that was so good, I wanted three more. So today was an over all good day.

The Monday I Forgot

I am not really sure what happened this day either. I know we when some where and did something but it was not very memorable. So I will have try again this Monday to remember.

Church, Cholo's, Church

It was a good day. I sang in the two early services. It went well. I think I am doing okay but still need practice. I am working on that part. :) We went to Cholo's today for lunch. I have the black bean nachos with chicken. It was awesome. I also tried the Waialua Soda Works Pineapple soda. It was pretty tasty. I may try Mango next. Merly had a shave ice for the first time she really seemed to like it. As a matter of fact we have to go back and get another one later. I found this very awesome gift at one of the art galleries. I am just not sure I should spent that much money on a gift. But if it is still there payday I may.

Happy Birthday Galina!

Today I don't remember much about the day. I know we went to the Scofield Exchange during the day but other then that again I am at a loss. I do however remember going to Galina's 14th Birthday Party/Family Dinner. We hadKalbi ribs, rice noodles, asparagus, and BBQ chips. Dessert was I wonderful ice cream and Oreo cookie concoction on which I chipped my tooth. Actually I chipped my tooth on the spoon but never the less it was weird. So we spent the latter part of the evening swapping battle stories of broken arms, fingers and teeth. It was awesome! Thank you Galina for the invite.

Friday the 18th

No, bad things did not happen today, I was just short on titles and that seemed to fit. It was a overall nomial day. Which in short means I do not remember a thing about it. That is what happens when you do not post to your blog for days and then you try and go back and post. I am thinking this is a day we did very little maybe a trip to Walmart or the mall.

Out Living Your Life

Today was the first full day of "company" living with me. It has been a good day. We are keeping busy. Merly got lost a little trying to get around here but everyone made it safe back to the Wornock Wigwam. I also started a new Bible Study that lasts four weeks at The Woodshed. It is called "Out Live Your Life" by Max Lucado. I have enjoyed what I have read of the book. I am hoping the participants guide/workbook is just as good. We also have to come up with a "no restrictions" project as I call it. I have a lot of ideas and I am not sure how I am going to narrow them all down.

She Swings and Misses

It is Wednesday once again I took at swing at going to choir practice and missed again. Merly and Daniel, a seventeen month old, have moved in temporarily today until they PCS to San Diego. It is going to be an interesting two weeks. I am looking forward to having someone to chat with but I am not sure about a seventeen month old. Shadow will also have to do some adjusting. So here is to the next adventure.

Belated Valentine's Dinner

We (Merly, Daniel and I) went to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse tonight for dinner. It was awesome as usual. We have a little stink eye action going on from the table across from us but I think they are going to live. I really wanted to say something but I was not really sure what I should say if anything at all. Most of what I came up with sounded rude. Which is not really in the character I am trying to build. It is however in my nature. :) That good old sinful nature that really wanted to knock their block off  . . . verbally of course. But ither than that it was a great dinner with great company.

Sleepy Time

I really have nothing to say today. I am just really trying to keep up the habit. I told a nap today and yet I am still very tired. It has been a long day even though I did not do very much. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

A Lot to Say But . . .

I can think of about a thousand things I could rail on right now but some one reminded never to post anything I would regret or that could be held against me. Not that I want to say anything bad. It is just that I see a few inconsistencies in the universe and I want the world to know that it is messed up. Unfortunately, the situations involve people and therefore they involve emotions which precludes an out right rant. It is funny how life is never what you thought it would be. That up is never just up, it is up with a tilt or a twist. Maybe tomorrow will bring a little more clarity.

AFAP is a Success

We finished AFAP today. It was a success, the issues were all briefed out and responded to. I think everyone was pleased with the over all outcome. I think my favorite moment of the day was talking with one of the other participants she said, "I guess wanted to say there is a lot of Brass in this room" and my reply without really thinking was, "And a lot of Brass kissing." Some days I worry about me. But to all the Ladies of the SOS work group thank you for the opportunity to work with you. It has been a pleasure and a wonderful new chapter added to my life.

Tired but a Good Tired

Today was the last working day of the AFAP conference tomorrow is the brief out. I am really excited and nervous to see how it goes. I hope that all of the issues presented are addressed at this level or moved to the next level if necessary. I know all the groups worked hard not only on which issue to address but coming to an agreement on how to present the issues. It has been an awesome experience. As the title says I am tired but a good tired.

Eighty Posts . . . Wow

It is only forty for this year but eighty for the whole blog. The best part is I have no idea what to type about. I wish I had gone on some great adventure lately but not so much. I have been "grounded" to my usual stomping area. I hope to finish unpacking this weekend. Maybe even get a television but that is not a priority just a want. More plans coming down the pipe maybe even some school and career stuff who knows. I am really enjoying AFAP so far. I have learned a lot and I have learned I have a lot to learn. I wish I knew more about the subject matter for the work group I am in. Unfortunately one of the ways to do that is lose a soldier and I am not prepared for that at all.  I did learn the Education at the library is not just for soldiers. I can take online classes there too. This is very helpful information. :) Well it is passed the pumpkin hour for me, so I am going to bed. Talk with you tomorrow.

Day is Done . . .

Bible study, AFAP, FAITH child care. I did it all and I am here to tell about it. I am not sure that returning to the workforce at this point is a good idea. I really could not imagine my life in a nine to five job right now. It is not that I will never work again; I am just thinking about all of the things I would miss if I was working right now. Currently though the only thing I am missing sleep. So I will go to bed.

Monday is Not So Bad

My Monday was pretty good. I went to the mall and to the outlets. I really enjoyed my day with both the Laurences and the Woods. Tuesday is the "beginning" of my week. Bible study, AFAP and FAITH is just what is on the schedule for tomorrow. I think Saturday I am going to sleep all day. :) Praying for a really good week not just for me but for all those out there that need one, and who does not need a good week?

And There You Have It . . .

Whatever it is. Today was a typical Sunday. Nothing extraordinary today. Church and discipleship training. Tomorrow I have a busy morning. I go back down to Pearl Ridge. I have to stop at the post office to continue my Valentine surprise. It has been a lot of fun. I just hope my husband likes it. I also need to mail a box to Florida, that is almost a month over due. That is the story of my life lately. If I get to it great, if not I will catch it later. Now, it is time for bed. Hopefully I will sleep with better dreams than last night. It was too weird for words. Good Night.

Back to the Market

I took another tour of the Aloha Stadium Marketplace. So, I got a little exercise and a little sun. I did some shopping. Which was pretty cool. We went to the Dixie Grill. This was my third trip in the last few weeks. I really like that place. I also went to Pearl Ridge Mall . . . again. That is getting to be a habit. It was an all around good day. Now, if I could just convince my husband that calling me is more important than the Superbowl, I will be all set. :)

Do Nothing Day

Today was a do nothing day. I did make it to the commissary which was great. I missed a few things on my list but I think I will go back after the Super Bowl this weekend. I really do not want to fight the last minute crowds trying to get their Super Bowl party goodies. Tomorrow is another trip to the stadium. I really like that place, I am sad I missed it these past two years. Shadow and I had a good time hanging out with Kali. We walked the block and ran around the house. A good time was had by all. I think Shadow and I are headed to bed. Hopefully we will catch you in the early part of the day tomorrow.

It is a New Stay (borrowed from one of the hotel chains)

Today they brought our new bed. It is wonderful and it sleeps even better. I know this because I took a three hour nap today. Which I probably needed but it put a bit of a damper on my day. I did not make it to the grocery store or any store for that matter. I did get to the gas station though which is really good. The stop at Burger King not so good; for health reasons. :) But Shadow got to come along for the ride which was fun. He seems to have enjoyed himself. One day I will get a picture of him hanging out the window. He is too cute.

Whatever Day

Have you had one of those days where you wanted a do over but did not have the energy to do it over? That is what a whatever day. Of course, a former co-worker would call that Groundhog Day. And can you believe it; it is actually Groundhog Day. My started out really well, but went to the pits after leaving Aiea. But I refuse to complain. I just wanted to let everyone to watch out for Whatever Days. Good night and good luck.

Snoozing Time

I finally have a mattress and it is my room. I can sleep on it tonight. I cannot wait. I really do not have a lot to report today. I got some new clothes and a few things from Borders. Over all it was a good day.

One Month Gone Already

Today closes out January. Can you believe it? I can't. I bought a new bed today along with two nightstands and chest of drawers. They will be delivered Thursday. I also got new sheets and the bedroom straightened out. Eco Lab will also be coming Thursday. The technician that was supposed to come to my home, ended up in the emergency room. I hope he/she will be okay. Other than that it has been a slow day. So, I think I will end on that note. I did want to post my favorite picture for the Pro Bowl though. Yes that is the one and only Peyton Manning. :)
