This is what I get....

So on Friday evening I was cleaning up the kitchen after dinner like the good daugther I am (mind you I had also cooked the dinner). As I was opening the fridge to put something away a jar fell out and onto my foot. Stupid me tried to move out of the way in doing so it landed on the last two toes and on the top of my left foot. I have a nice bruise, sort of purplish/blue and it is still slightly swollen. If the swelling doesn't come down by tomorrow I think I am going to have to make a trip to the Urgent Care or ER to get an xray. I am hoping that it comes down, my toes look like little sausages..oh so attractive. I really don't want a cast or anything..have you ever been to VA in July/August it is so humid and makes me feel disgusting. I couldn't imagine adding a cast to the situation.
Got some new this morning from David..his deployment has been pushed back for at least another 2wks. I'm sad but I know this is out of his/our control. So no sense in getting upset, right? He is hating the food, he said they have the same menu every single week. So I am trying to come up with ideas that I can send him just in case he gets to a breaking point. I do try and send little snacks when I send out a package, I sent some hard candy and trail mix this last time (he asked for some toothpaste and I didn't want to just send the toothpaste). But have sent granola bars (Nature Valley), nuts and beef jerky. Any other suggestions? I was thinking of some ramen noodles or the tuna fish packets (the ones that come with the mayo, relish and crackers)-at least that has some protein.

I hope everyone has a great week!!

WOW!!

WOW...last time I checked I did not live in CA (and never have). This morning the metro DC area had a 3.6 earthquake. I now know why the dogs were freaking out around 5am. I on the other hand completely slept through it.

On another note I had a great day yesterday. I got to talk to David yesterday morning. We hadn't gotten to talk more than a couple min here and there because he has been working non stop for the past couple of weeks. I know its been hard for him but we are almost to the 4month mark and only 3more to go. I really hope they go by fast. Also with the temps getting up into the 140s which reaks havoc with his job (he is an electrician for the Army).
And then I had a girls night out with some great friends, we went to the Melting Pot and had a complete blast. We were there for 3hrs, unfortunately we didn't have a picture taken. The plan was to go play mini golf after dinner but because it took so long the course was closed by the time we got out of the restaurant. Oh well there is always next month.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Happy July 4th :)

Wanting to wish everyone a very happy and safe July 4th!! This is probably one of my favorite holidays. What more can you want, bbq, family/friends, games and fireworks. Unfortunately this year I have to work but I am not going to let that ruin the holiday. We are having a potluck and going to head to the roof of the garage and watch the fireworks in Vienna.
Please take a moment to remember all of those brave men and women who have made this holiday possible.
I also would like to wish my mom and dad an awesome anniversary. 29 years ago tomorrow they were married (a good idea on my mom's part now my dad cannot say that he forgot about their anniversary :)).

Enjoy...have a hot dog for me :)
