Sherrill- Our two "pups" go tomorrow to the groomer. We have one Chiweenie and a Pomeranian. Moose is our Chiweenie (2 yrs old) and Mia is almost 7yrs old. If I ever figure out how to share pictures I will post a couple.
OK, What is Cranking?
Morning everyone!- Sherrill you beat me this morning. Drive safe this morning. I have made a few of those trips back in the day. Ofcourse, in your time zone it not that bad getting up at that time.
MNM- the time changes have really gotten me turned around in just the last 3 years. I am ready for bed by pm when I wake up at 3:30am. I try to stay awake...and still wake up so early. It is silly, I have always been an early riser. Right now I'd love to sleep in til 5:30!! lol
Good night to all my girlies.
Cindy-LOVE that link!!!
my Sailor is cranking....he loathes it. he sounds totally exhausted. oooooh it's gonna be a loooooooong 90 days : (
Cindy- since the time change I have been waking up at 3:15- 3:30am. It has been a real challenge lately. While I was so sick this year I had terrible insomnia as aside effect of one of my meds. Now it is the time change...I can't wait to get adjusted! I just get up and do quiet things til the hubs gets up.
3ds- B doesn't play golf but he does love to go to the driving range, hitting golf balls off the deck of a ship, sounds like he would enjoy that! Hope that you get to hear from him again soon. College choices and all of that paperwork is something I am glad we only had to go through once! That was enough for me!
We are still waiting to know for sure if B will be approved for leave at Christmas. I hope it won't be too much longer...So many plans like the wedding hinge on all of it and boy I sure would like to get his flights booked before it gets too expensive! He is chomping at the bit right now. Normally he isn't so impatient.
I hope that you all have a great Wednesday!
Morning All! Sounds like the crud is going around. I hope you all get to feeling better soon! Hugs coming to all of you.
hey Terri....it's on my calendar!!!
MommyHunt. Hope your feeling better today :)
