for today…
Outside my window… my Durango (aka The Dingo) that my dad just drove from Dallas.
I am thinking… that I don’t have an answer where people ask where home is.
I am thankful for… my free health insurance since my Army brats are sick.
From the kitchen… an endless pot of coffee.
I am wearing… black workout pants and a black track jacket zipped all the way up past my chin.
I am reading… Pride and Prejudice…again.
I am hoping… that all the transitions in the next few months are valuable learning experiences for my family.
I am going… to spend the next couple of hours unloading The Dingo and getting organized.
I am creating… an resource notebook to simplify my impending Army move.
I am hearing… Follow You Down by the Gin Blossoms.
I am praying… that The Boy and I continue to make strides in how to be married but living on opposite coasts. There’s no handbook.
Around the house… sleeping children and clean laundry that needs to be folded.
One of my favorite things… talking to the boy (Clinton)!
A few plans for the rest of the week… driving to Ft. Lewis to get my vehicle registered so I can go to the PX and the Commissary (the military version of Walmart/mall and the grocery store). Walking up the street to Ferrell McWhirther park with the Army brats. They have great swings!

After your first tour of duty, you will quickly appreciate that home is heaven.
