Well, my fellow readers . . . it's been almost 2 months since I've posted on this thing.  Here's the update:  I have been busy with school and already have finals in less then a week.  It's been 2 months since I've last seen Dan. . . Only another 4 Months to go . . . hopefully it will go quick.  It'll be the first Christmas apart from one another.  I suppose that is all.  I went home for Thanksgiving . . .the ENTIRE week . . .and didn't do a thing . . . oops . . . we finally got a photo of the entire family (minus Dan of course) . . .we'll have to do it again next year . . . . I suppose that is all that I have to share with you, the readers.  I'll write again in 2 months . . .perhaps sooner . . but don't count on it .   Adios!

Pleasant Surprise!

I had quite the pleasant surprise today.  I received a dozen red roses from my sweetie from miles away.  They were beautiful.  (In fact, I'm going to try and post a couple pictures of them). . . You know, it's already been 5 months since I last saw him.  It seems like it's only been a couple months.  But the good news: We're over half way through this deployment.  Just another 8 months to go and I keep having "I think I can I think I can" go through my head.  Actually, it's more like "I know I can. . ." ( get through this).  What's another 8 months?  Right?  I work with a lady named Sue and I found out some interesting stuff about her.  Such as her first husband (he later died of cancer) was sent to Vietnam for 2 tours.  (Both of which she was with him).  It was nice to meet someone who could relate to some of the feelings I sometimes have about the situation.  Of course, Dan and I are a lot more priviledge than she and her husband were. . . For example: Dan usually calls every 3rd/4th day and we get to talk for 30 minutes and sometimes he'll go online and then we can talk for another 30 minutes.  Sue said her husband called her on Valentine's Day for 4 minutes and that was about it, otherwise they corresponded through letters.  So, in a sense Dan and I are lucky.  Especially him since I can load my webcam for him and then he can see me from miles away.  Unfortunately, I don't get to see him...but oh well...he's the one that needs the morale boost.  Anyway, this little entry...turned out to be longer than expected.  I hope you all enjoy the photos.  P.S.  Obie decided he wanted to take a smell of the roses and jumped on the table to smell them (naughty kittie)..anyway....I tried to grab a picture of the naughty kittie in action and...CHANGE BATTERIES...my battery died in my camera. . .
 
So here are the two shots I got of the flowers.. . . Maybe my creative side will kick in and I'll take more photos of them . . .
 
Have a good evening,
Signing off,
Queeen Anne

The Wedding Dress

So, this is how it began, I was in a bit of a funk and thought, "I want to try on wedding dresses, doesn't mean I have to buy one . . . ."  So, I made an appointment for Cindy and me to go to David's Bridal on Tuesday.  After trying on about 6 or 7 dresses I kept coming back to this same one.  The first one the consultant gave me was to small so we asked if they had it in my size, which they didn't, it was either that small one or the one that was a size to big, so I tried on the size to big one and the consultant tugged the back so it fit properly.  I fell in love with it.  I guess it is true what they say, "You'll know it's the 'one' the minute you put it on." 
 
Details about it:  It's a light ivory (which put next to the Apple color I have picked out for the bridesmaid dresses it looks very, very elegant) and trimmed in a champagne color.  The champagne color goes through out the beadwork and the SPARKLES.. . . I love how it sparkles. . . And I'm going to have spaghetti straps put on it. . . so for those of you who haven't seen the dress yet...which I'm sure there aren't a lot of you left out there. . . I'm going to post the photos on here . . .
 
It was a lot of fun especially to be able to have Cindy there to help me out.  (those dresses are really heavy!)
 
Now I can check that one off of my list.  Paid for etc.  *sigh of relief*
 
I hope you all enjoy the photos.

It's been a month and a half

Hello my fellow readers...yes it's been about a month and a half since I last updated this thing. . . let's see here..what's happened in that month and a half?  Only my trip to the best amusement park EVER!  It's called Cedar Point, it's in Sandusky, OH.  Gail (Dan's mom) invited me to go along.  So it was just her and me, it was a lot of fun.  It was fun learning more about Dan and his family.  Other then that adventure, nothing to exciting around here. 
 
I'm heading back home today.  I'm going to be there until Wednesday.  Cin and I are going to paint the "guest" room tomorrow and on Tuesday we're going to have lunch with my favorite Nana (my only Nana) so that should be fun. 
 
Next Saturday I take my "big" exam in order to be a Nationally Certified Pharmacy Technician (I'm a little nervous about that).  The NCPT pretty much means a raise for me (if I pass) and that's about it. 
 
Word from the Front (Iraq) (that sounds funny. . .as though it were from the olden times): Dan is still bored.  He has a cycle he follows for missions: 2 days off (1 is a prep day) 3 day mission, 2 days off (1 is a prep day) 4 day mission; and the cycle continues.  That's about it.  Oh and he LOVES getting care packages. . . so if anyone would be interested in his address...you know my number or my msn name. 
 
Other news:  I HAVE A GOLDFISH!!!  I've decided to name her Zelda (not sure if it is male/female **shrugs**)  I'm going to attach some photos of Obie (the kitty) and Zelda (the goldfish).  I hope you all enjoy them.  
 
Well, looks like it's time for me to finish getting ready for work.  I will talk to you all later.  Toodles.
