I think of all the things I want to blog every day, but then get lazy.
School is out, and I've already made one trip to Texas for the girls to go to camp for a week. My outlaws took Junior for the week, and I was sans children. The first time in.....forever!
I went to Dallas for a few days to visit my old suitemate from Baylor. I met up with a blogger, Heidi. We met for lunch and 2 1/2 hours later, we finally left the restaurant. I had a great time!
I met up with my friend Abbey, found a free bingo on post in the middle of the day where I won an XM radio. We made a new friend, and returned to bingo that night. I am not a pro at all, but I did win $200! Into the under the bridge fund it goes!
I ate tons of mexican food, met a friend for breakfast at my favorite little cafe, did crossfit (of course!), and didn't work out as much as I should have. I saw a Ranger's game (they lost), and ate tons of ethnic food. Yum! With all that eating, I was worried, but I didn't gain a pound. Whew.
In retirement news, Gunner has just 10 working days left in the Army. It's a scary time, and many major decisions need to be made quicker than I would like. Don't worry, if you know me, I have a plan A, plan B, plan C, all the way to plan P right now.
I got his retirement present, and have taken it somewhere to have something done to it, that needed to be done. I can't wait to show it to y'all, it is UNBELIEVABLE!
Stay tuned, because I am sure things will get crazy over the next few weeks!
I've applied for some jobs, and am waiting to see what the future holds. We know a move is in order, since we can't live in housing forever. Although if they make an allowance, I wouldn't mind.

Good luck. It seems we will be going through transitions at the same time. On that note, we will not be making it to the springs. My SIL does not want the dog so I have no other reason to go there.
All the fun we had only warranted ONE small paragraph? How about you showing up a day early to see my dirty, filthy house, the Mexican Martini's, REGGIE!!!, the places I took you shopping, Which Wich, etc.... so much more than your silly XM Radio/ $200. Yes, I'm still bitter about that.

I'm crossing my fingers for you guys on the job front!!
You sound very calm for a person facing retirement...it is a dirty word in my book. (And I need to get over that.)
Good luck!
I had fun too! Now that we will be 'neighbors' soom we can do it again! Oh and have you spiced up that speech yet?
Again, catching up on your blog! I didn't know you were a "Texas Collage Gal"!! My Aunt and Uncle are actually Professors at baylor, though they just started a couple of years ago. I had a Really good friend from High School Attend Baylor (how crazy if y'all knew each other) While I attended Southwest Texas State University (when it was still called that) from 95-99!! Small world!
