It's almost like lovin',

Hello readers. Although it is "early" morning for most, I slept so well last night I had to get up. I think I'm just programmed that way. If I go to bed around 10pm and sleep almost the entire night through, the odds that I'm going to get up between 7 and 8 are pretty high.

So, if you didn't see my last post, Clark is not going to MOS. Yesterday I was in a, "my life sucks," mood... but this morning I'm not seeing it that way. This just means I have more time to spend with Clark before he finally does go to his MOS or his two weeks of active duty stuff. Yes, this means we're going to be tighter financially and we still haven't quited figured out what that means, but we're getting there. Step by step, we're getting there. God will see us through it!

Last night we watched "We Were Soldiers," which isn't exactly a pick-me-up, but Will and Cindy had talked about it so much while they were with us that Clark wanted to rent it. While we were watching, Coconut ended up on my lap and Luna ended up on the pillows right by me with her head on my chest. By the end of the movie, they were sleeping with their noses touching. I wish Clark would have been able to get a picture, but they would have moved had he moved, because my feet were in his lap. It's small things like that that make me smile and know we're going to be OK. We're perfectly capable of not spending excess money... it just makes things a little harder. C'est la vie! Life goes on and God will provide. That's all I have to keep in mind.

My mom and I talked about internships and things like that. We came to the conclusion that I should be a columnist, lol, even though that's one of the hardest jobs to score in the journalism world. I think if I did have a job, that would be what I want to do. I suppose I kind of go in-and-out of the stage of wanting a job because I know for the first 1.5 years following my graduation and Clark's, we'll be moving around due to the military. Maybe that will be a good time to sit down and work on writing articles here and there and see if I can get anything for them. Free lance writing is really hard to do, but that's something else I would definitely enjoy.

The high for Boone today is supposedly 56. I know all of you lucky people have had highs in the 70s and such, but 56 is definitely getting there for us here in the Boone-docks. I honestly can say I am going to be ready to move from this place. On our way to NYC we made a side-stop in Quantico, Virginia, our next place to live, and I know that I'm going to love it there. The housing is amazing and it's right next to water and ... I just can't wait. At least, now, I have that to look forward to when Boone is making me feel down.

That's all for today folks... at least for now. Until next time!

We've all got our junk, and my junk is you!
