Alright, I know I'm getting ahead of myself and I hope I'm not jinxing myself by thinking about home improvement projects on the home we haven't even closed on yet, but I have to sort out my thoughts and the best way to do that is to put them in writing. There are so many things I want to do to the house we're trying to buy, I am having trouble deciding what needs to be done first and what can wait and everything. Maybe I should go room-by-room. Ok, I'll start with the entryway where you walk in...

Well, here's the latest on my life. I got to go pick up DH from the airport Sunday.

Happy, excited, nervous, anxious, everything. *whew* I'm a nervous wreck. And if I feel like this now, it's going to be ten times worse tomorrow morning. It doesn't help that this is the first time I've ever had to drive to the airport alone. I should be fine, though. A bit panicky, maybe, but otherwise fine. I hope...

Yay!! HOPEFULLY, DH will be home in under two weeks! He called today and gave me some info, and unless they mess things up (they ARE the military, after all), he should be home in around a week and a half to two weeks. Getting excited, but also nervous, but still excited. He will be so shocked to see his DD after so long. He hasn't seen her in 10 months, I am sure she has grown. I just can't tell because I see her everyday. I need to go get my hair trimmed sometime. He likes it long, but I cut i...
