Ben is up at Fairchild AFB (Spokane, WA) doing what I affectionately call “POW camp.”  Say a little prayer for him if you think of him.  Afterward he will be flying down to Pensacola, FL to be dropped in the ocean with a raft and a lot of time on his hands.  Hopefully there will be no seagull hunting.  He should be flying back to San Antonio on Feb 29th! 

Meanwhile, back at beautiful “Laughlin by the sea,” I am enjoying lots more time to hang out with my very awesome roommate (and soon-to-be sister in law), Ashley.  [oh, and my insane puppies.]  She is very sweet to put up with me and all my indian food smelling up her apartment. 

It is rather bittersweet to see all my friends here at Laughlin, knowing that I will be leaving (for good) and will not be seeing them as often.    It is also very hard watching many of them move up to Delaware knowing that I could have been going as well.  But the closer we get to moving to Washington, the more excited I become.

In other news, I am in a decorating obsession mode and we haven’t even been house hunting yet.  It is probably because I have been somewhat “homeless” for almost half a year. 

Alright, it’s off to the gym for me!
