One Week Down.....

I am making a target list of the past week. I am tired and do not feel like making sense. You will understand at the end of this post. David, now that I know that you are reading this, here is what went down during your first week of deployment. Try not to get too jealous!!

• We went and saw the movie Up. Great way to distract us that you left for Kuwait earlier that morning.
• Lots of swimming in the pool that we bought.
• OT and PT appts for Landon. Lots of screaming was involved. Lots of firsts were accomplished.
• The A/C froze. Luckily you called me before we froze to death and told me how to restart the a/c. Hey, now I know.
• Two tornado warnings that had me up all night waiting on the sirens to tell us to run down to the storm shelter.
• Two kids missing their daddy more than we ever imagined.
• A couple of trips to Wal-Mart.
• I ordered you a memory foam mattress pad to help you get some rest.
• Cleaned out the closet downstairs. Whew, I feel matter and may tackle the laundry room tomorrow.
• The Shred became a household name to our children. They love to cheer mommy on while she sweats her butt off.
• Dealing with the rude rent-a-cop at the Visitor's Center.

I save the best one for last. An almost 3 hour visit to the ER on a late Saturday afternoon into night. OH YEAH!! Landon has MRSA. AGAIN. Third time since April.

Who has time to diet? I don't have time to eat so that should take care of the whole dieting ordeal! Hey, the first week could have gone a lot WORSE than it did. I will take it.
