My Boring Life
Oh my goodness, I don't even know whats more boring anymore...my work week or my weekends! Seriously, now that my friend's husband is back life is so boring, lol. I am just so used to doing everything with her, all day everyday! So this weekend was quite a bore!
On Saturday I went to Best Buy and bought Joe a portable DVD player. My parent's had gotten him a gift card there for Christmas, so it didn't really cost us much. Just the difference in price, which was about $35. I brought my wedding ring back to the jeweler where we got it from. Now here's a story....I brought it there about 2 weeks ago and had it inspected. They check to make sure all the diamonds are tight, etc. Well at work on Friday I noticed a diamond was loose on the band, I actually moved it over with a pair of tweezers! NOT COOL, lol. So I brought it back there and said they really needed to take a look. Sure enough they saw it, and so it was sent in to be repaired. Whew! I'm just glad the darn thing didn't pop out! I ended up buying a plain white gold band, just something I can wear when I don't feel like wearing the diamonds. Sometimes I just wanna dress it down, be plain, or like when I go to the gym. I am always paranoid about exercising outside and in the dirt with it on. So I figured this was a good choice. So I am wearing it now while my other rings are gone. They should be back on Friday. I like just wearing the band though, its a lot more simple too.
Anyway! Thats about all I did on Saturday. However on Sunday I did go shopping w/my friend b/c her husband had duty. We went to the mall and out to lunch. It was relaxing. Other than that I did some laundry and just hung out. Joe is in a port now so he called me this morning. I miss him so much. This weekend all the wives are going out to celebrate because we are now at the half-way point! 3 months down, 3 more to go! There is a lady in charge of like monthly meetings and outings for all the wives, she sends us e-mails and stuff. Most of them are stay at home mom's, I'm like the only one who is also in the military! But I'm gonna go this weekend and hopefully have a good time. Its a great support system because we are all going through the same thing.
Well, hope to see you all around. I'll write again later in the week.

Once in awhile my best friend and I sneak off and go to the movies and out to lunch. It's kind of nice to just be able to sit down and chat with a friend and know that no one is waiting at home for you.
Half way mark!! Woo Hoo!!! How you been? It's been a while....
I'll try to be around more often, I've been neglecting my blogger friends quite a bit...sorry bout that...
Take Care!!
Hey I am here and commenting. I don't have anymore boring days which kind of sucks.. but I do feel for you. I am glad they have a support system for the wives, I bet it makes it a little easier.
Woo Hoo for the 3 month mark!
OH MY GOSH....could it be? Wait, let me look again...
Is that THEE MS THANG???? COMMENTING? ON MY BLOG??? lol
Yeah!!!! Good to hear from you girl! And from Dana and Ms.Lava! I missed you ladies!
Yeah, the support system sounds totally cool!
I like the white band idea. I have a couple married friends who do that too.
Well... boring is better than BAD excitement!
Congrats on making it half-way. The time will keep flying by.
time flies so fast and before you know it, joe is back.
