More of the same

Well, no visitors allowed. BUT unless someone messes it up we will get to see him on Saturday from 9-5! Me and the girls will be there at 7! =) Two more days to get through. I have plenty to do down here though to get ready for the big move!

S.A.D. Girls

My husband sent me a text and said we could not come tonight. I do not know what this means yet. He said he will call me later. The youngest was bawling her eyes out. I was too. So, we got all dressed up and took ourselves out to dinner to "cheer" us up. The girls were so exhausted they kept getting cranky and I was so bummed the food seemed yuck and I barely ate. Oh well. There's always tomorrow!

Made it!

We are here and have seen our apartment and are checked in at the hotel. I am exhausted!!!! We will see my hubby in 4 hours and 49 minutes. Not that I am counting or anything! =)
The apartment is nice. Maybe not as nice as I had in my mind, but very clean and safe feeling. Mirrors ALL over the place! That will keep me going to the gym for sure! =) The girls were already dancing like princesses in front of them. We are directly across from one of the 6 pools and they can take FREE tennis lessons from a tennis pro! How cool is that? I have a lot to do and feel down right now just because I am so tired. The girls are resting and I am taking them swimming in a few minutes.
I will keep everyone posted!!

TOMORROW

This time tomorrow I will be HUGGING the tar out of my husband!!!! The girls and I hit the road early this morning! Please pray for a safe and uneventful trip for us!
I should have internet at the hotel so I can blog and email from there!!!

I made the list

At our gym they have this program where you can go to a computer in the gym and type in your id number. This number works on all the machines and tracks everything you do and gives you points for it. These points do absolutely nothing, but it is fun. Well, every month they post the top 30 for cardio, weights, number of workouts and pounds lifted. I have been striving to make it up and I did!!! I was number 30 for my amount of cardio exercise for the month of March and then when I went to log out I had enough points to be promoted to the Yellow Level!!! Again, that means NOTHING but I was thrilled nonetheless!!!
Now I have to share something that made me curious. Here is a sign I passed yesterday. "Unique Pain Clinic. Legitimate pain control." That was it. Nothing else. Any thoughts?

Home free

I am so glad to be home!! I drove a total of 8 hours today with no relief and only 2 very quick stops. I cannot stand long stops when you KNOW you want to be home. Plus I knew I had to get the garbage lugged out, take out the recycling, unload the van, unpack and get the girls settled and into their beds. THEN I get to sit around and wait for the phone to ring! =)
Last night the phone did not ring. He called this morning and said they were given a smoke session. I will not steal his thunder as I imagine you will be reading about this lovely experience on his blog in the near future! =)
The girls were SO incredibly great on this trip! They never fussed about the drive. Then I put them to bed and they were out like lights!
Now if only I can get this phone to ring.....

Winding down

This has been a fun little weekend for the most part. The girls have been entertained by a dog named Cocoa who DOES NOT TIRE of fetch or any other game. I took them to the bakery this morning and they thought that was SO cool! We got to sit on those little bar stools right at the front counter, got tiny glasses of water and they of course had a doughnut! They also went to 2 parks today! They should be out like lights in moments tonight! At the first park there were peacocks. They were amazed! At the second park I think our oldest ran about 1/2 mile. No, I am not exaggerating. I really think she did. It was awe inspiring! I got a nice workout in at the Y here. My parents had a little dinner party thrown in their honor. Now in the morning, we go to church and then home! I am ready to be back at our house and cook our own meals again. Mine and the girls stomachs have been hurting here.
I did get to talk to my husband earlier and with any luck he will be calling me back soon!
