Missing You

Ok...so I didn't write on Tuesday...or Wednesday. However, I have good excuses for one of those days. At least I think I do.

Tuesday I went to work and I got some amazing flowers from some guy in Afghanistan. What a sweet gesture! Then I came home and needed to figure out what to have for dinner. I put chicken in to defrost on Sunday night. Usually I'm really bad about actually using the food once I defrost it. However, when I went to the store on Saturday I had bought some marinades to liven my food up. I decided to marinate the chicken and then toss it on the grill. Oh my god Stef it was so juicy, tender, and cooked perfectly. I also watch way too many cooking shows...or at least I used to. So when I saw a can of pineapples the only thing that I could think of was grilled pineapple. It was amazing! I'm glad that I'm finally branching out and trying new things. The next step is porkchops...they scare me. lol. The season finale of teen mom was on but I zoned in and out of it and didn't really pay attention.  That was pretty much my night I had some strawberries, a sam adams cherry wheat, and called it a night.

Wednesday- I got up. Got ready. Went to work. I came to work and saw that my roses had opened up and they are absolutely beautiful! I love them! Work was pretty normal. For lunch I ate my leftover chicken. Aren't you in shock!? I actually ate all the food from a meal that I made for well...probably the first time in my life if you don't count pizza..and that was an entire package of chicken! After work I saw that I had a couple of missed calls. One was from Colin's investigator. I'm  meeting with him today after work. I really don't know that much about Colin so it will be a short interview. Then I went to drop off the boots to the Papadenics because I figured it would be easier to find their house while it was still light out  because their subdivision area has no street lights! However, I couldn't switch lanes in time, so I missed a turn, and traffic was a complete bitch-read-traffic jam, so I said F-it. I called and told them that I would go around 8 like last time. So I made dinner which mainly consisted of cheese and crackers lol. I watched some tv and then around 7:20ish left to go to their house. That's finally done. I told Amanda that if those are the wrong boots I give up and I'm not coming back to her house unless it is a social visit! lol. After I got home I cleaned up the house to make sure it looked nice for when the investigator comes today. By the way...I really need to get rid of all those bottles in the kitchen because my husband still thinks that he is in college. Sigh. Well that was my night. I watched some Wife Swap gotta love reruns and had some chips and salsa. Then went to bed.

Love you!

Crap...I have a ton of days to catch up on!!! I'll try to see if I can remember anything at all...

Ok...Wednesday. I went to work as usual. After work I went to the mall to meet up with Shelly and Logan to go to Jason's Deli. She overslept a little so it gave me time to go shopping. Oops. I bought a really cute dress for 29.00 and a sweater for 5.00. I'd like to see you do better. I also got a couple of votive candles from Yankee Candle. Around 6:30 I met up with them and had dinner. It was nice. We spent most of the time gossiping about the unit...oops. I promise that nothing that I hear goes any farther than that. lol. After that I went home, watched some tv, and called it a night.

Thursday. Work as usual. I think we spoke on facebook during the day. If I didn't make coffee I'm sure that I picked up a caffeine drink. I went home and made myself a southwestern chicken burrito. It was pretty awesome....however, Chipotle still has something on me. Mmm. Chipotle...now I'm craving it. I definitely watched the unit that night and I probably did some laundry but I can't really remember off the top of my head. This is probably why I should actually write on a daily basis like I said I would...

Friday. Got up and got dressed. It was jeans day at work since it's Friday. I actually made coffee on Friday so I'm thinking that I didn't on Thursday. I got out of work at 2:30. I stopped at rite aid to pick up a couple of things. Then I went home took a nice warm shower-it was freezing out that day-and then sat and watched court tv shows in my robe. Around 5:30 Shelly texted me saying that I had to join her, Brian, and Logan at Red Robin and that it wasn't a request. So I went and had a nice time. It's really nice how they are looking out for me and inviting me to things which they definitely do not have to do.

Saturday. Slept in until noon. Lazed around the house all day. Went to Food Lion and picked up some things. I really need to start utilizing the Commissary since its soooo much cheaper. I think it scares me for some reason though lol. Time to put on my big girl pants and shop with all the army people. I didn't do anything on Saturday and to be honest I can't remember what I had for dinner....weird.

Sunday same as Saturday. Slept in until 1. Wasted the rest of the day by relaxing and doing some laundry. I think I had pizza that night because I brought pizza to work on Monday. I think I watched an episode of the Real Housewives.

Monday. Work-dropped off the stuff at the Papadenics. Made spinach ravioli for dinner. (store bought of course) Came home-watched tv until 11 and then called it a night.
 I promise to write a new post for Tuesday tonight-it was a good day :) Time to make dinner!

Teen Mom is on Tonight!

Ok, yes, I skipped Monday. However in my defense we spoke on facebook. You really didn't miss anything yesterday. Got up-grabbed an energy drink-went to work-worked. Came home made dinner (pasta) in case you don't stalk my facebook. Did two loads of laundry. Straightened up a little-talked to you on facebook. That pretty much covers it. Today-Woke up-got an energy drink (why don't I just buy more than one at a time?) went to work-had lunch (I know...I was in shock too since I usually skip it) I came home and I have pizza getting ready to go in the oven. Tonight I think I'll try to do another load of laundry. That's about it. I'm getting dinner with my favorite army wife tomorrow. Just trying to keep taking everything one day at a time.

GIANTS WIN THE SUPERBOWL!

GIANTS WIN THE SUPERBOWL!.....too bad I stopped watching at the end of the third quarter lol. Oops. Hmm...I have two days of catch up again, don't I? Well I'm not counting the morning up until 2ish since we spoke on facebook. Let's see...I really didn't do much of well...anything. I cleaned the living room, kitchen, and did a load of laundry. For dinner I contemplated getting Jimmy Johns but I wasn't really up for putting on clothes besides the pajamas that I already had on. I settled for Ramen....how pathetic was that? I had pizza and skillet meals that I could have had but I had ramen instead. Depressing I tell you. I watched the Patriot last night and didn't even cry once...I think there is something wrong with me since that movie always made me cry. I finished the night off with some episodes of the unit. Sunday-I woke up around noon-I need to stop staying up so late. Shelly asked if
I wanted to go to BWW's with them but I had just gotten up and would have needed time to get ready. Instead, we are having a dinner date on Wednesday after work. Colin and Loren invited me over for the Superbowl...originally they were going to have a couple more people but no one else could make it since the idea was last minute. I still went and had a nice time. We had Elizabeth's pizza and Colin made gigantic cookies....and I mean Gigantic! Anyway...I stayed until about nine and then I was getting sleepy so I called it a night. Loren offered to help us with our taxes but sometimes I think things are best left to professionals. Do you have any opinion on that? Let me know if you read this. Oh yeah...I went to Harris Teeter and stocked up on Home Runn Inn pizza-3 pizzas is an appropriate amount in the freezer right? Oops I mean four if you count the Digornio one....I think I have a pizza problem.

I miss you google goo-so much every night and every day. It's so hard to come home to an empty apartment and know that it is going to be like that for several more months. At least I've gotten through the first milestone: hari sepulah . Oh by the way...our recently married neighbors found a house near Ramsey street so they are moving out. :( :( Alright...well love you and keep staying safe for me. Oh...your dad put our wedding announcement in the paper it looks very nice.

I may or may not have watched four episodes of the Unit starting at 11pm..oops.

Hmm...Well I have noticed that I have started to get lazy with updating this blog. Probably because I remember at night and by then my brain is too tired to think of anything clever to say. However, in my defense I had a busy evening. Let us see...yesterday...I woke up early and got my McDonald's coffee. I have been getting far too lazy in the mornings. Work was mundane but this week has definitely flown by. For lunch I had the rest of my spinach and goat cheese pizza that I had for dinner. (Frozen pizza of course). After work, I went to Target and picked up a new scale because the anticipation of knowing what I weigh was killing me.


It's silver and stainless steel digital scale. I like it. Ironically, it is by the same company that our other scale was from...but that is all that I could find for some reason. Weird. This new one works much better. Instead of just showing your weight when you step on calculates it by increasing the numbers until it stops at your weight. Which...is somewhat depressing? I also bought teal hand towels for our bathroom and dark green ones for the second bathroom. It is an upgrade from paper towels. Next step is actually getting a garbage can for the second bathroom...but baby steps.

After I got home from Target I was on the phone with Al for over an hour and a half to be interviewed for her Master's Thesis. We also had a nice chat. I'll be interested to read her thesis once it's done. After getting off the phone I finally made dinner at 9 pm. I had some spaghetti. Around 11 I decided to call it a night. I took a shower (very exciting) and then I thought that I would watch an episode of the Unit but I guess that I wasn't tired. I stayed up until three am. Oops. This morning obviously I was a rockstar and woke up at 8:04 threw on some clothes, ran to Rite Aid and grabbed a Starbucks Vanilla doubleshot and made it to work at 8:31 a.m. What can I say, sometimes I even amaze myself. I don’t have any plans for tonight but I have laundry to do and I need to unload the dishwasher and straighten up a little. I’ve been kind of slacking this week. I’ve been so tired and haven’t had that much drive to get things done. However, I get out of work at 2 today so I will make up for that then. I also need to pay rent today and I don’t think my registration for the care team training went through so I need to call after work and find out if I can still sign up or not. Ok well that’s all that I can think of. I’m been trying to stay in touch with your dad and give him updates. I shared your last fb message with him because it was easier than trying to explain stuff lol. Alright, well that’s it for now. Time to get back to work. Oops.

Time to Play Catch Up....

So...I definitely passed out last night before writing. I'll try to recap my day  from yesterday. Got up and made coffee. Went to work. Worked. I don't think that there was anything really eventful about work yesterday. At least not from what I can remember. After work I went to the officer's wive's coffee thing. I was actually really glad that I went. Everyone was really friendly and it wasn't stiff or forced. I'll definitely go again- lol I felt like I was in a sorority though when I got the unit pin. If you don't wear the pin at the coffees then you have to pay a dollar. Dues are also twenty dollars. Yep-sorority. It's kind of like how you buy your own plaque-when I leave the unit with you then I get to choose between a unit apron or a glass cookie car with the unit crest. (You've come a long way baby! LMAO) We didn't end up playing any games which I figured would happen. ha ha. It was really sweet though because the Chaplain's wife is the one that hosted the event. She has friends who sent us, the wives care packages, since they felt like the wives are forgotten about when it comes to deployments. So everyone got lotions, bath salts, bubble bath, and a couple of other things. It was really...you just called and interrupted my thought process. :p Anyway, it was really nice. I'm too happy from your call to write more now..but stay safe and I love you and miss you and stay safe and I promise not to sew anything!
