Less than 9 months to go

Here it is, a whole month has passed by without a post. Doesn't surprise anyone I am sure.


Two years ago [which seems like a lifetime ago], Hubs and I were on a vacation of a lifetime. I still have not completed that photo book.

The other day, I asked Hubs if he thought I might graduate college in a shorter time period than my mother did. Because of moving and having to take care of us [my brothers and I], she graduated with her degree 18 years after she began. But she did it. He said, "Well, it's already been 10 years. You only have 8 to go." My age shocks me at those moments. But, I still have plenty of time.

My ideal qualifications for our future hometown: within 1 hour of an airport so that traveling to Hawai'i is always a reasonable option. And that we open a Trader Joe's.

This is the time of the year when I seriously regret spending all of my Christmas money. The spring clothes are so tempting and my allotted $20 a month usually gets spent at Starbucks.

Hubs has less than 9 months left of residency. I told him, "I think I am ready for you to be done and for the next stage." He says, "Is that a new thing? I've been ready for the past 20 months."

So by the title, I thought maybe you were announcing a little bundle of joy. But the birth of a career is certainly announcement worthy! Mason is still just in his bottom braces and probably gets a Herbst appliance in April. Every time he has an appointment, we both think of Dr. Clabaugh. Last time in, a VERY pregnant female student was observing for the day...We just keep praying-REALLY, we are. Not just words, girl!
