TGIF

Thank goodness its Friday the week seem to go by kind of fast. I got stuff done around the house and we finally got some rain this week to which is good. The rain helped our grass because it was so brown now its green again. I got to talk to Chuck online on Wenesday and today he said that hes doing good. Hes back at the other camp now and they are just chillingout for awhile there before they move on again. I am doing good and still reading Under The Sabers the book is really good it reminds of the tv show Army Wives. I got some other new books to read when I get done with this one. My goal for this book is to be done by October 1rst. I am making a little goal for myself so hopefully I can do it.

Continued Prayers For Chuck And His Troop. :)

Please keep Chuck and his troop continued in your prayers as they are moving on to another camp for a couple of months. Their time is winding down and they are gonna be home very soon. I got the date which made me happy and made me sad to. A few of my friends here are mad at me that Chuck didnt do a full tour like his Unit. I am just happy to have him home, safe and back in my arms again. To me a deployment is a deployment and I still miss my hubby as much as they miss theirs. We just came from Germany and he got the unit that was almost done with their tour. I am not sure why I let that bother me but I do. Just keep them in your prayers for a safe return back to their familes. Oh I finally found out who my FRG is. I am so happy they seem like nice girls. Also please keep the families that lost their loved ones over there. I got some emails this weekend for some soldiers that were killed. Thank you everyone. :)

Digital Cameras

What kind of digital cameras does everyone have? I love my new Kodak and it does take great pictures but what kind does everyone have. I noticed that some other people have better quality pictures than mine. I got a new one a couple of months ago from Amazon. Its 6.1 Kodak. It uses rechargable batteries or AA ones. Its just a question that I have.
I love taking pictures but I know that lately my blog hasnt had that many pictures because I have nothing to take pictures of and I know that makes my blogs boring. Chuck got me a canon last christmas which takes great pictures to but I couldnt find the charger for it and the picture thing to. My mom found those 2 things for my Canon camera and that one works now. :)
Chuck has a digital camera that he got the first time he went to the Sandbox a few years ago. Its a wierd name brand on it. It seems to work great for him its a 6.1 to. Chuck loves to take pictures also.

Take Home Chef

Take Home Chef is one of my new favorite shows. Its comes on during the week on TLC. Its a fun show to watch. Its a chef that is from Australia that goes to a grocery store and finds someone that is grocery shopping. He helps her make a meal for someone special such as their hubbys, best friend, boy friend or anyone..He walks around the grocery store with them and he buys the grocerys. The he goes home with her and they cook a really good meal. They made Greek, Italian, Chinese and Midwest cooking last week. Some of the meals looked yummy. I got some yummy recipes from the show to cook when Chuck comes home. The best is when they suprize the person the meal is for. Its really cool.

Updates on Aunt Jane and Grandma H.

Weekend Checkin

I had a good weekend. On Friday I got to spend the day with my friend Rhonda and we met some girls from our army wife group that we belong to. We had lunch at Olive Garden so yummy. Then Rhonda and I went to the mall and went shopping so she could get a couple dresses for her brother in laws wedding. She made out great and found 2 dresses. I was looking to but I didnt buy any dresses just a snack at the mall. Okay so I am sad person I like pretzis with cheese. Then we went to Kohls and I got some picture frames. I love pictures. :) I got a cute cat frame so I am gonna take a picture of Sabrina for it. I also bought Chuck a new collar shirt it was on sale and its really nice. Then she was getting some picture frames to off of her brother in laws wedding check list. Then we were both tired from shopping all day and she dropped me off of at home. I didnt do anything fun at night time just hungout with Sabrina and watched tv. I cant wait for the new line up of shows to come on. :)

Then yesterday and today I didnt do anything just relaxed and bummed around the house. My weekends are ushally boring since I back in NC. In a few weeks around September 14th my Aunt and Uncle are going to come down and visit me. I will be happy. I love visitors. Tonight I am looking forward to watching Army Wives I love that show. Its almost over already now. I cant wait for the new season of it.

She is definitely one of his biggest fans and gonna have some of his music at her wedding in Janaury. 30 years ago today he passed away. Well she told me that this was his favorite sandwhich. I love peanutbutter and bananas but never tried them together. So I told her that I was gonna try it sometime. She gave me his famous recipe. I am not sure if I am gonna make it anytime soon but it does sound good. Shes making them today for her coworkers at the hospital I guess because their is some Elvis fans there.

A Tuesday Funny

Sabrina found a new place to play now. She loves to go in my bathroom in the bedroom and get in the bathtub. I am not sure why she likes to it but it makes me laugh. I went back to the living room to get a camera but by the time I did that she got out of there. She dosent like water but she likes the tub. I guess because there wasnt any water in there. Next time she does it I will take a picture and show everyone.

I actually had a better day today and then I did last week with all the suprizes that had happened here. I did all the cleaning that had to be done which needed it. I also swept up tons of dead ants which made me happy. I am happy that they were dead instead of alive. LOL. I hope to have a good week. I got some good news from Chuck well I have to wait a couple of months but its worth it to me. I have had my ups and downs this little deployment but like one my friend Maddy said is very true , I am a strong army wife and I can handle anything and I did. :P I have had problems with the house, yard and the mail box, ants and spiders and stuff. I am defintiely tuff. I might of complained about this stuff but everything got taken care of.
I am so happy that one of my friends before I went to Germany PCSed back here to from Ft Learndwood. Her name is Angie and the greatest thing is that she lives in Heritage Village with me. Well she lives a few miles from me which is cool. I am so happy to have a friend all the way out in Raeford with me. I have so many great friends here now. We are suppose to do something on Thursday and Friday go out for lunch together.
Well tonight I am just watching some tv and hangingout with Sabrina. Oh by the way she got hair all over my laptop because she loves to watch me play on it. She hasnt posted a blog lately but she will soon.

The Unwanted Visitors at my House

The Unwanted Visitors at my house those pesky ants have been sprayed. The termintaor came out yesterday afternoon and sprayed all the rooms except for my bedroom. If any one knows my cat knows that shes done a lot of traveling and she hates her travel bag. I couldnt get her in there... which isnt good so I decided to trap her in my bedroom. So I havent saw any of those pesky ants in any of the rooms except for mine now. They migrated to room which is upsetting. They arent to bad in there yet but its because the guy sprayed outside to and did all the windows to. He said they would come in the house but give them a week and they will be gone. I hope so. I wanted to spray some Raid in my room but its hard with my cat. She loves my room and I dont want her to get sick. What would everyone else do. Any suggistons. I dreamed about ants last night since they are in my room. I am just a little grumpy because of it today. I HATE ANTS SO MUCH. He said that a lot of people call for spiders to. Well ants drive me nuts especially when some of those pesky ants are fireants to. It was a vent blog. :(

Grumpy Monday :(

Well its been a okay Monday I woke up this morning to my guest bathroom covered in ants and the guest bedroom. They are everywhere. So I took a walk down to the shoppette to get some ant traps but they didnt have any. I called a work order in for them. A guy is suppose to come and spray tomorrow. I am not sure what to do with Sabrina I will put her in my bedroom for a couple of hours. I dont want her to be sick. The good thing is that they arent everywhere just in there, THey havent adventured through the whole house yet which is good. They upset me so much. I just dont want them in my kitchen.
My weekend was okay I was able to talk to Chuck on the phone and read some of my book to. I am happy. I just cleaned up today and mopped to. :) I also got to talk to Chuck today and on the phone and on the computer to. I am so happy.
