Chunky Monkey for Breakfast
Hey if you're going to eat food that's bad for you, you might as well eat it in the morning so you can work it off all day.
I just began my day at work and already called my mom for the daily "I love you" phone call. I just realized that I don't really have that much to do. I have stuff that I can do, but not stuff I want to do. Oh well, at this point I'll do whatever keeps me busy and the day a passin'.
I really did enjoy writing the 100 things about me. I hope others do it just so I can learn new things. I re-read it this morning and it's true that you can learn alot about a person just from a bunch of useless facts. My best friend was funny because she commented that she probably already knew the majority of the things I wrote. But hey, she wouldn't be my best friend if she didn't!!
Speaking of my best friend, I miss her sooooo much. Just over two years ago, her husband made the decision to join the Air Force. I commend him for that because I respect anyone willing to serve our country. (did I mention my dad and brother were both Marines? that's one of my favorite things to share) Anyway, so M joined the Air Force and lo and behold this took my best friend away. They moved to Italy for his first station about 1 1/2 years ago. I can't believe it's been that long...only 1 1/2 years to go. I was counting down to January 2007, when they get to come home, only to keep getting reassured by her that they may accept another over seas assignment or stay where they are. Did you know that you get paid more if you go over seas? I knew this, but gosh darn it I miss them and my kids miss her kids(her oldest son is 6 months older than mine).
I miss them, but they are getting to travel the world and we message quite frequently. I guess since I don't know when they'll come home, I'll start a Shelli fund. Some people save for shoes, some for an education, I'll save to travel to Italy!! Although, by the time I have the money they'll probably be in Japan or Germany or Africa or who knows where. Maybe back home?????
I love you Shelli and I'm glad you called me the other day!!
