Tonight, I have been missing Alaska. Like I wasn't when I put the Northern Lights as my pic? Yeah, ok, I admit it. But when we are getting hammered with ice instead of snow, it's just not much fun. Alaska has snow, they deal with it, and it's pretty.
We fear having a rough drive next month, but we're praying for good roads to Mayos in 4.5 weeks. So far, no other adventures have taken place. I'm going to be working some more hours to make up for the time I'm gone since there will be no income during that time. We have some reserve, but would rather not use it. I'm trying to get at least 1 week covered, 1 week of education time since I'll have time to work on some much needed courses, maybe covering 2 years of credit in the 3 weeks if I'm good and the internet holds. Fast internet helps LOADS I found on my last round. I think I can make up the third week after I get back. I may not even have to be gone 3 weeks, but we'll see how it goes.
I still think of my friend in Afghanistan, or soon there, who is in the guard. The war becomes more personal and I want to do whatever I can for his wife, who's stressed out, and he's probably aware of that even though she tries to hide it. If anybody has some ideas, help me out! Especially you military types out there. I'm new at this.
My hubby is exercising as he's been told to, which is good. Now to get me to do it as well. Cleaning house when I get some time will be good, too. I have dreams of such activity when it's cold out and I don't want to go anywhere. There's books to unpack, sewing to do, Christmas cards to get out (after the surgery, I think), and dejunking to do. So much to do, so little time. I can always find something to do instead of cleaning, no problem.
I guess I'm out of news for tonight. Hope health is in your life and that the Lord continues to be good to you--how could he be otherwise?
