Busy Busy

There has been a lot going on around here. I’m doing online school and just put in for a different major. So that’s exciting. I am going from IT related studies to Psychology. It was just approved this past week, so I was looking at my new schedule of classes and giving myself a “you can do this!” pep-talk.

Shirley moved to Minnesota. Miss her. But I’m always sending good vibes her way and I know she’s so Okay.

Edgar was just informed that his next scheduled deployment is changing from leaving in November of this year for Afghanistan -to- leaving in February (2010) for Iraq. It’s good news, trust me. Not only because he’ll be here a bit longer but because it’s said that Afghanistan is not the place to be right now.

What else is going on…

Little Ethan’s birthday is coming up. I can’t believe he’ll be 5! He told me today that he doesn’t want to be 5 years old. I looked at him and said “Are you kidding! 5 is soooo fun!” and he just crossed his arms and said, “No.” And I’m realizing that I don’t want him to be 5 either. He needs a couple more years to be prepared for the responsibilities of a 5 year old. Oh gosh…or maybe I do. 

I watched Marley and Me. It’s a great movie. I don’t really sit down to an entire movie so that is one that I really enjoyed giving myself to for 2 hours. 

Oh, and something weird. You know that saying that goes, “There’s plenty of fish in the sea.”? …Well come to find out, (I wrote a paper on this today) There is actually not. We are depleting this resource of bigger fish at a more rapid rate than the sea is producing. 

Just a little tid bit of info. 

Here’s just one related story if you’re interested.

Random, I know. Off to bed now.
