Tony's Toys!!!

Tony's BIG RED ONE patch....I know it is not red!

Tony's corner. Very neat n tidy....DUH!

2 frogs....you figure it out.

I just got off the phone with Tony and he is soooo excited! Today he got some of his new toys for Iraq and in his words these are toys he remembers and they are as cool as he remembers! He got a new holster, scope for his M-16 and a LASER!!!! He also got ballistic goggles and a classified email address.

I am happy that they are actually doing something today!!!! He thinks he will get his weapons next week.

Can we go to Costco....

Bryan asked Court can we go to Costco?  I hate Costco...why do you always want to go there....

Our ride home has been interesting. So far RAINMAN Bryan wants everything we pass.  I want pants. I need pants. I want Pearl snap shirts. Does Costco have pearl snap shirts? 

Court thinks every dog is cute that we drive by n Liz says no.

Girls Night....

Court and Liz came over tonight to hang out and it is great to have some girl time!!! The girls came over and we went to Bobby V's for a little bit. We saw Kristin and drunk G. Now we are having girl talk and it is getting heated....I am making mac n cheese to go with the wine.

Court weighed Murphy and he is at a whopping 21 lbs! Tony is in Nebraska seeing the kids and I miss him terribly....

Doing the laundry...

I am about to go to bed but I had to post this first. Earlier tonight I washed my sheets. I went to the machine and put in the sheets, washed them, and than opened the dryer....It is amazing to me that white socks, black underwear, and a few t-shirts can bring tears to my eye. All of his clean clothes are sitting in the laundry basket waiting for me to fold them. I guess I will have to fold them and than put them in their proper spot. I guess the hard part is the not knowing when he will wear them again.

I was able to talk to Tony on Skype tonight and it was wonderful. I do not know who developed Skype but they need a GOLD STAR!!!

Tomorrow I will be in the Dallas office training Sheldon and than my bestie Court is staying w/me tomorrow night....thank GOD for girlfriends!!!! Saturday is hair day!!!! I will also need to fit in a mani and pedi....

Day 2...

Today was actually ok. I trained Sheldon the new sales rep in Dallas and I am worn out!!! I am sooo loving my Palm Pre and am quite proud of my skills. I logged on to my mom and dad's WiFi and was able to sync my Pre with my laptop :) :) I was not able to do this last night on my home network but guess what.....I just did it!

I came home to a clean house, thanks Ema, and now typing on the laptop watching So You Think You Can Dance and cuddling with Tex.

My shooting skills!

Day One....

I am sad and my heart is heavy. I feel kind of silly being so upset when I know I will be seeing Tony again in a few weeks but I cannot help it. I love him and miss him. Usually i would be excited to have some time to myself. In the past, I would be sitting here counting down the minutes until work is over and planning my evening activities....gym-tan-home-DVR! Today I am wishing work to be longer and dreading getting into the car. See when I get in the car I always call Tony to see what he is doing, what are we doing for dinner, and talk about our day...not today. Today I am just trying to get through the day with no tears.

Mom wants to come over but I kind of want to be alone. I am going to do a secret shop in Mansfield and than????

Last day...

Well today has been emotional. Tony keeps reminding me that he will be home in a few weeks for July 4th but I am still sad.  It is the little things that I am going to miss.  Waking up to him in the morning.  Him bringing me breakfast or coffee in bed and of course telling me that I am messy Marvin:)  I am going to focus on happy thoughts tonight.  

Anniversary

Today is our 2 year anniversary and our last 2 days together before he leaves for Ft. Riley, Kansas. I am so proud of my man!

Our Vegas trip was canceled but he still made it an AMAZING weekend. I swear Tony can turn anything from bad to good:) Friday we went to Six Flags and Saturday I went to shoot for the first time...I did not do to bad. I was very scared of the gun at first but after 30 rounds i was doing ok. I also got the new Palm Pre yesterday and it is the COOLEST! I highly recommend it!

Not sure what the plan is today or tomorrow but I will take each day as it comes and enjoy every minute of it. I love my soldier.
