Month-by-Month

Have you ever felt like you are just on a really fast train and you are looking out the window at the blur of trees and houses and that is how you days zoom by?

The past few months have been fast, disorientingly fast. (I make up my own words) But I decided to do a quick month-by-month update. But real fast.

November
-We had a really good Thanksgiving with our friends Chris and Jeni. I was really impressed with how yummy we made our dinner.

-My computer also contracted a ridiculous amount of viruses that attacked my Internet explorer and AOL.

-It snowed and we had an interesting experience sliding down a hill and me screaming, STOP! STOP! STOP! We did. Thank you to the brave curb.


December
-I decided to remove myself from all of the drama that I was being weighed down by, and in doing so was unbelievably at peace.

-We also packed up the kitties and took them to Houston. A word to the wise: Red Eye + 2 cats + a very tall husband+ claustrophobic me = HORRIBLE FLIGHT!!!!

-I got really sick in Houston, thanks mom.

-Being sick as a dog was not helped by a phone call in the middle of the trip stating David's pull out date was being pushed up from January 16 to January 2nd and instead of Japan they were going to the Persian Gulf. Panic and crying followed.

-But Christmas was nice.

-Right before we got on the place David's chief called and said never mind about leaving early but definitely straight to the gulf.

January
-David had duty New Years Eve.

-We started packing and getting things ready for David to leave for 8 months. Think packing for a 2 week vacation is tough, how about almost a year!

-We started painting, and boxing things up and moving, all the while missing my little kitties.

-It snowed a bunch. It was not fun.

-We said goodbye at 3am, January 16th, the only way I knew how. We didn't say goodbye at all, we just danced to the first song we danced to as man and wife: I Love you by Coleman Hawkins.

-I barely made it home from taking David because of the terrible snow storm.

-My mom flew in and worked really hard with me to finish packing/cleaning my apartment. Thanks mom.

-Then we drove from Port Orchard, Washington to Houston, Texas. A long haul.


I hope that clears up alot of curiosity and now I can jump to the present time and continue my blog life.

It was my new year's resolution last year to have more people read and enjoy my blog and I think I achieved my goal. I really enjoy sharing with all of you. :)
