So, I went to MEPS monday. I was there 15 hours. It was apparently Army "mission" day; basically last call for quotas for the month. I re-took the ASVAB, it went something like this:( asvab )

Well things seem to be moving. DH's things are moving slowly, while mine are moving at a pace I was not prepared for ( Read more... )

About a week ago, DH lost his footing in our living room and his left knee decided not to support him anymore. Said knee swelled up to about the size of two watermellons next to each other. I swear his knee was about 30" around. Anyway I told him that he couldn't bitch until he called the Dr. Well, today was his appointment. The doc tortured ( Read more... )

As I was driving sedately down the freeway this morning about 0330, a cute little HIPO(highway patrolman) decided to sneak up on me in ambush. On flash his lights, my eyes dart to my speedometer, I'm not speeding. Obviously my expired tag which was due in September has caught up with me. The ever so nice gentleman approached my passenger-side ( Read more... )

Wednesday, I got up late for work...on the way in my left contact felt like it had folded over in my eye, so I drove in half blind. Luckily between 0330 and 0400 there is little traffic. I got to work on time--barely--and looked in the mirror to see if I can right my contact. I found half of it in the bottom portion of my eye, and the other half ( Read more... )

This is a manly adventure which the father in law wanted him to go on desperately. About a week before the big day, my FIL started calling him daily to ask asinine questions, which DH ( Read more... )

I have now been in an earthquake! A pair of 2.5 quakes hit my little corner of the world Wednesday night. I am so impressed! The first went unnoticed in my house, as it occured during our nightly fight to get munchkins # 1&2 in bed, which usually is accompanied by much gnashing of teeth, foot stomping and hysterics. The second tremmor came ( Read more... )

My friend and I went out of town about three hours from home to go shopping yesterday. We had just left when DH called me. A friend of ours had been watching her not quite two year old granddaughter, and the baby had somehow gotten into the back yard and fallen into the pool. They got her to the hospital and she was medi-flighted to one of the ( Read more... )

Ok, since the last time I wrote, I've been working out....but not much over the last two weeks, between Thanksgiving and the ice storms here. I've lost a total of 13 lbs, and have 17 more to go...but when I spoke to the recruiter about getting back together to work out, he had a new proposition: He's a certified personal trainer, so he wants to ( Read more... )
