Mother's Day

This last weekend was Mother's Day. :) It went really well! We had my two babies up here for the weekend and everyone got along great! No melt downs or anyone trying to kill each other. It was great! So mom and I had a household of two 7 year olds, one 6 year old and one 4 year old, one 6 month old Newfoundland and two cats. A fun weekend indeed! It was bitter sweet. Everyone is starting to get the feeling that I will be leaving soon. There is a chance I will be leaving before the end of this month. I am really excited and sad all at the same time. I will miss my family dearly.

My first PT test is schedualed for Thursday! I feel that I am really close to ready. I am able to run 2 miles in less the 16 min and do the sit ups and push ups required. I wish I could do better then the required number on those though! I did sit ups yesterday in my jeans and today there are a few places that are a little raw. Hopefully it will heal before Thursday.

I have got the Sailor's Creed and the Eleven General Orders down pat! So all I need to do now is go through all of my kitchen boxes and get ride of most of it, move everything I am keeping to my storage unit and taking the rest up to the second hand store. I had an entire household, but it has been in boxes for a year now. I thought it would be good to keep it, but as time goes on and the realization that I will be stationed some where for three years, has me thinking less is better. The only things I will be keeping are the things I use now and the things I can not replace.

So wish me luck on my PT test!
