Mood:  celebratory

Okay, I have been meaning to tell you all this, but I just now remembered it.

BACK STORY > A while ago when we went to Mississippi Mom’s, I needed to borrow a shirt, since all of mine were in the wash and she wanted to take me out to the store with her. Anyway, the shirt she let me borrow says “Proud ARMY Mom” in HUGE letters. It’s a nice grey T-shirt and very comfortable. She said that I can give it back to her later so somehow it wound up here, with me. (I keep forgetting to bring it when I visit, sorry.)

Now for the funny part… When I went to Bliss, Flyboy decided to hang out it some friends of ours, the ones I babysit for, well anyway, Flyboy was invited to go over there to play games and hang out. So that morning they went running, came back to his house and played games. Well Flyboy packed some clothes to change into afterwards, and didn’t pay attention to what he was grabbing. Needless to say the only shirt he had the WHOLE day, was “Proud ARMY Mom”! They even went out to dinner that night. Poor thing, but it was really funny.

Speaking of Flyboy, he is doing what he does best today… flying. I have a feeling he might get diverted tonight, seeing how cold and icy it is, I hope that is not the case, but I’d rather him safe and somewhere else than trying to come home when it isn’t safe. Though I tell ya, he didn’t even think to pack of change of clothes… Don’t worry; I stuffed them in his bag. Sometimes I wonder. (Lol)

Anyway, today is going to mainly consist of, first LUNCH, then more laundry and some dishes that he didn’t soak last night and some living room organization and rearranging. Oh and some web surfing. I am thinking about investing in a carpet shampooer. I just need more, clean. (I think I am losing my mind)

Speaking of mind losing, no I am not talking about you, The King, =) hehe just teasing. Flyboy’s buddy with the house, he has been pushing it on to a new airman in the flight. She has no clue and just got there, AND he is feeding her lies. I knew we made the right decision. He’s telling her that the house has been on the market for less than a month! On the Realtor’s site it says much different. The poor thing, I hope she doesn’t fall for it. I am sorry, but I don’t like sleazy business practices.

Oh, I am sure you are wondering, my chicken quesadillas were awesome! Hehe. I got back from the store with the supplies and then grilled them up. I ended up getting milk and cheese too. I know we were out of milk but wasn’t sure about cheese. Turns out it was a good decision, since come to find out, we were out. Oh, I also need to write a grocery list that is also what the day will consist of, list making. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeee!

Hmm... I hope he brought is flight gloves. I don’t remember seeing them in his bag; hopefully they are in his jacket. We were a little rushed this morning; I forgot what day it was and hit the snooze button. He was on time though. I kind of feel bad, hitting the snooze and all. I broke him of the waking up at the first alarm at 530. That used to drive me absolutely nuts in the beginning. He would do that on my days off and wanted to start the day before the day started itself. (That was of course back when I was working 10 hour days with one 30 minute break, driving him to base ((20 miles)) then from there to my work ((30 miles)) then from my work to base to pick him up ((30 miles)) and then to home ((20 miles)) not to mention the stressful traffic and the scary roads) So yeah, my days off, sleeping in was very much needed, if not until noon, at least until 800. Now he’s like me when it comes to the snooze button, if not worse. =S

Anyway, I just switched the laundry over and got a GREAT idea on how to rearrange the bedroom! So I NEED to go before I loose my motivation. I will try to come back an add some more. I know I definitely have to come back to answer Uncle D’s email.

Talk to you all later! Miss you! Take care!!

I am back, Kinda of. I just wanted to say, he didn't forget his gloves, they were no where to be found and I remembered taht I made a not of them last night when I was centering his patches on his jacket. Anyway, he did forget however, his tags. That is a first though. I blame the fact that he didn't put them where he normally does, this time he put it on our dresser. =P I really wish I would have noticed it before he left. Maybe I should get a second set for him lol. That way if he forgets it on the dresser again, he'll have one in his flight suit. Men...

Speaking of the little forgetters, when I was in Bliss, I embarassed Soldier pretty bad. SCORE! We were standing outside in front of his barracks waiting for 1315 to roll around so he could get his orders and I noticed his uniform was SOOOOOO unkempt. (I think that is the right word) Anyway, I ask him if I could use his pocket knife, and willingly he gave it to me, and I just started cutting strings. I mean STRINGS! I have no idea how he has passed uniform inspections, but with this many strings he totally would have been recycled in basic. lol. You know those plastic balls at the store that have .79 cent nylons in it, well I could have filled about 1 and a half of those with nothing but strings. His Sgts were walking by rolling their eyes. I hope I didn't embarass him too much. He did thank me though. =) Flyboy is pretty good about keeping his uniform stringless but every once in a while some will get past him. It always helps to have a second pair of eyes, especially woman eyes! HA! ;D hehe.

Well I am going to get back to my rearranging. I still have a lot more to do. I Have the bed moved, which consisted of taking it apart and moving it and the 9 drawer dresser is moved in the direction I want to put it in. lol. I am doing laundry in between, and figured clean bedding would add a nice touch to the newly moved room. lol Flyboy washed them last week, but I think I will wash them again, it's one of those head things. He says he washed them but I didn't get to seem them get washed so, it bugs me. You know? Maybe it is just me and the weird groupies in my head trying to take my mind over. I don't know.

But I am going to go for now. Talk to you guys later!
