Short Recap

I haven't been that faithful in posting in my blog and I am trying to be better. I thought I would do a short recap of what has been happening.

1. I had a sleep apnea finger test. I have to go in to have the in office sleep test. Not happy about it, however if it helps me feel not so tired then... yippee!
2. I got a new bowling ball... its beautiful and when I get a picture of it I will post it.
3. I have to have surgery.. where you ask? On my thumb. Yea I will leave you in supense until I post a blog on it.
4. I have won a bet that Dale and I made, so he has to watch some chick flick with me. I keep informing him if he does not watch it, he may have to go to High School Musical the sing along version and he would have to sing. LOL!!!
5. I have applied for the lead position on our team. The interview will be great experience of whether I get it or not.
6. Dale was so excited that our family was chosen to participate in the Nielsen ratings for TV. It was a lot of work to record every single show we watched for the week, hey an experience. I watched enough of the Hills, Big World Little people and Jon and Kate plus 8. I think they will continue. LOL!!
7. I bought a surprise gift for our family. I can't tell right now because my husband may read and it is a really surprise. Its all wrapped and waiting for the tree to slide under.
8. I made reservations for Dale to go with his army buddies to the Harley Davidson Ride to Laughlin Nevada. He was going to pull a trailer and this is his first office ride, so I found a cheap hotel for him.
9. I got my flu shot. Everyone should.
10. Hum...I found this great hair product! I know I am grasping at straws...heheheh.

Honoring My Veteran

I couldn't end this day without entering a little post about Veteran's Day. My husband is one of my many heros. He has been in the Army for almost 20 years. He has spent a year and a half in Iraq fighting for our freedom and would do it again until the job is done. He is an amazing husband and soldier and I am so proud of him. I have enclosed some pictures of him in Iraq above as a constant reminder of our Men and Women fighting all over the world to protect our freedom. I found this poem in my notebook. It's perfect for today.

Peace

Our men are fighting

fighting for our freedom,

so many are lost

so many are gone

when will this madness end

when will freedom ring.

men fighting for ...freedom...honor..for me!
