Tomorrow is Only a Day Away

We've been happy all day today :) The guy from the movers came out to estimate the number of boxes they would need. He was only here for about 20 minutes and said my house was in way better order than most he's seen. That made me feel good and a lot less stressed about "preparing" everything.

I made an appointment to get my hair cut tomorrow! I'm nervous because some stylists just don't listen to their customers and end up butchering them, sending them home crying. My stylist will be Michael. I am hoping he's one of those fun gay guys who knows what he's doing. I'm bringing in my picture and I am praying real hard that my hair comes out resembling it or I might have to pitch a fit.

Noah's new thing is telling me secrets. It tickles! His secret today has been "Daddy's coming home tomorrow" every time. He was telling me a secret and sorta smooshed poor Tristan's head and made him cry so I gave him the "mom" look. He didn't hurt him, it was just naptime and Tris was a little edgy.

I found someone to ship the car since it's just not sensible to drive it all over the place with us while we visit family. It's gonna cost about $600 :P I took pictures of all our high-value items and their serial numbers. I logged all the DVD's. Now all I need to do is call a stinkin' realtor and get this house on the market! I don't want to let it go, but I don't want to have to worry about it. I planned our roadtrip all out. We're going to pass through Saint Louis, Nashville, and Atlanta. Many fun things to do in all those places. I've got maps, visitors guides, coupons, event calendars, and phones numbers galore. I'm ready! I'm actually excited about getting out of this house for once, even if I'm never coming back.

I am so ridiculously excited about tomorrow!!!!! I am going to have this house so clean by time I have to head out to the airport. I am contemplating bringing my camera and asking a random bystander to snap a few shots of us. I'm usually too excited about the blessed event to be willing to take a camera out. That would be wasting valuable hugging/kissing/crying time, after all ;) I just hope I can sleep tonight. I think I'll call Josh again. He's probably going out of his mind with boredom. They took all his stuff. I think all he has left are a few books and whatever he needs for the airport tomorrow. Holy crap... did you hear that?! TOMORROW! :D

Very bad day today

I got a horrible phone call early this morning from someone I used to work with. A friend of mine, who was stationed in Iraq, was killed yesterday in her sleep when her trailer was hit. SGT Trista Moretti was an amazing person. She had an impact on so many lives in so many places. It's going to be tough for everyone (like me) who can't make it to Jersey to say goodbye. I've been crying off and on all damn day. It seems so unfair. I hate this war and don't agree with it, but I don't think she died in vain. She died for everyone else out there. They fight for each other, not a cause, not their government. That's what I miss about the Army. I miss my comrades. Trista was hilarious and beautiful and had this great Jersey accent. We used to play word games and gossip and eat lunch together every day. We would laugh all day long while we "worked" haha. I remember when she first got to the unit I told everyone some bitchy chick with an accent was in the...

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...
