Learning to be "normal": It’s OCTOBER!!!!!!

And I think everyone knows why I’m excited!! I love that I can finally say that I’ll see my boy THIS MONTH!!!!

This R&R we are doing things a little differently and I’ll be coming to GA a couple of days before he’s scheduled to arrive and I’m going to pick him up in Atlanta and we will spend a couple of days in GA then head to Destin for a few days at the beach before heading back home. Instead of going around visiting everyone we are going to have a family dinner at Deon’s probably the day after he gets back. We won’t be doing anything the day he arrives home because he will be exhausted after traveling for around 36-48 hours straight prior to finally making it home. During that time he will get very little sleep so he’s always worn out. Not to mention getting used to the different time schedule, right now he is 8 hours ahead of us and the schedule he’s on right now he’s getting up to head into work around 1am our time and getting home ready to go to bed at 2-3pm our time. That is our plan thought and we are both really excited! When we get a little closer and have a firm date I’ll let everyone know what’s going on but it won’t be on the blog due to OPSEC.

Fall is here! It’s suppose to hit 36* here tonight and our high today was 60* and very windy! Brr! I am actually cool enough in the house to have on socks and a long sleeve shirt! The leaves changed overnight it seems. Everything was green and now the trees are beautiful. I have a feeling though that the leaves are no going to last long though because it’s super dry. We haven’t had any significant rain all summer and everything is just dead. I’ve been watering the yard and it’s still crispy. Tomorrow I’ll plan on getting some pictures of the leaves.

Here is my latest project. I’m working on painting it right now. Letting the latest coat dry. I need to get the fabric to make the seat cushion now and it will be ready to go!

And here are a couple of pictures with 2 of my closest friends up here. These girls are a blast. These were taken at Gracey’s daughter’s Sweet 16 party so that’s why we were so dressed up!
