Memorial Day....

I have to say that it really bugs me when people say, "Happy Memorial Day"...it is NOT a happy day. Not when we are remembering people who lost their lives serving our country. NOT when people here in the USA are living without our brave loved ones who are overseas protecting the great country we live in. Sorry...it is just a pet peeve of mine.

Anyways, we have had a fun weekend and I can't believe tomorrow is June!!! On Friday night I went out with my friend Angela and her boyfriend, Joe. We went for Hibachi and sushi and YUMM-O!!!! What a great time out with great friends!
Saturday, Jonathan and I didn't do much. I went to the gym and Jonathan and I hung out at home. Yesterday, again I went to the gym and then we went to Jonathan's friend's house for a BBQ. IT was a lot of fun. Jonathan and Nathan had a blast playing together in the pool while I got to have adult time! SOOO nice!
Today, I went to the gym and signed up for 3 free personal training sessions. I am pretty excited for them! I want to get myself in shape and make sure that I am building muscles too. Tonight, my friend Carol is coming over to hangout and we will have some bbq foods and maybe do some organization of the house...my least favorite thing to do.

So another thing that bugs me...Facebook, oh how I love facebook...but I got really bothered yesterday...it was reminding me in my events area that next Saturday, June 5 is my wedding anniversary...like I didn't know!!! Thank you for reminding me that it is my anniversary and Steve is half way accross the world...UGH THANKS!!!
Anyway, a 4 day work week and then this weekend is James Taylor concert with Randee!!! I can't wait!!!!
Thanks for reading.
God Bless America and God Bless our Troops

Wow, it has been awhile!!!

I can't believe how long it has been since I posted a new blog. SOOOO much has happened since the last time. I am going to try to make it short and sweet.
Work has been keeping me busy which is a good thing. I get to speak to Steve every few days which is really nice. Sometimes Jonathan doesn't want to talk to him but it is usually because he is preoccupied with a toy or a tv show or something. I really hope that Steve doesn't take offense to it because I can't tell you how many times he tells me each day how much he misses his daddy.
One HUGE thing that has happened in my absence is the fact that we moved!!! We were living in a town house with not a lot of room. I was driving about 40 minutes to work every day and it was just taking a toll on me. We moved to a house that is rent to own and I am so excited! IT is the most beautiful house i have ever seen and I can't wait for Steve to see it! I am really nervous for him to see it. I want him to love it as much as I do!
Steve gets to come home in June for a couple of weeks and I can not be more excited!!!! But I am also really nervous. It has been so long since I have seen him. Yes I saw him for 4 days in February but in all reality it has been 5 months. What if things are different? It kind of scares me. I love him so much. I don't want things to be different.
I am trying to plan everything that Steve has asked for while he is home. I want it to be a special time. I want him to enjoy every minute!!! UGH I can't WAIT until he steps off that plane!!!
Otherwise, things have have pretty much been the same. I have become great friends with our family readiness chair and I don't know what I would do without her. She has been such a help through this move. Her husband is overseas with Steve so she is someone who knows exactly what I am going through. I am enjoying our new house but it is quiet...I get sad a lot. I cry a lot...but I am doing it...I am making it through this year and no one can take that away from me, no matter how much I cry or complain!
