What a day! I got up early this morning to watch the Royal Wedding. It was so sweet! I felt like a little piece of my childhood was dying, haha.. I was in love with the Prince back in my early teenage years, haha! It was lovely though.. she looked so elegant although I thought her dress would have been a little more flashier, but she was beautiful none the less. I sent an email off to Randy saying that even though he didn't have a crown, he was still royalty to me and still my prince. <3 I love that man, little booger that he is. I haven't talked to him on the phone in almost 5 days, and I've only gotten one email in that time too. :( But I understand that he just arrived at the FOB, and I knew I wouldn't hear from him for a few days once he got there. I just pray that he's alright and our Lord just keeps that wall of fire around him and keeps him safe.

So I'm leaving in the morning to get to my mom's. I'm excited to see her. She took the week off of work so we could spend time together. I really do have the most awesomest mom in the world. She says she's going to take me out to do things to keep my mind busy. I love her. And I am so excited to eat some chicken teriyaki and yakisoba! mmm, although I know I am going to have some serious pity pains knowing that Randy isn't going to be able to have some, especially since it's one of his favorite foods. But maybe I'll be a meanie and take some pictures of me eating it for him. I'm such a bitch, lol.. but to be fair him and Hawthorne do that stuff all the time! :)

I've got almost everything all packed up.. just need my toothbrush/toothpaste, hairbrush, hair things.. gotta get the animals all set up to go. Grab the blanket I'm working on for Randy, and a few other things. I definitely need to clean up a little bit as well and take the trash out before I go. And I want to give my number to the neighbor's so they can let me know if anything is going on.

Anyways, that's about it for today. Right now I'm just relaxing a little bit before I start working on this house again. 17 days down and 4.8% of the way done with deployment. Still so much to go, but at least it's moving. I think being in WA is going to be really good for me and keep me busy and hopefully the next few weeks will fly by, as well as the next year. I can't wait to be with my husband again.
