A Marginally Better Day

Today was a better day. It would seem that all of my friends who have deployed spouses are in the same funk that I am. That does make me feel a little bit better about my crappy week. I went and picked up the tail light cover to replace the one I broke yesterday. That cost me $101 - just a little more salt in my wound I suppose! Then I went window shopping at Home Depot for my new kitchen. Granite or corian? I figure since I have such a small amount of countertop that I should be able to splurge for the good stuff, right? Ooh and I am getting a new fridge & ceran top stove...well, new to me anyway. A lad that DJ is overseas with is going to sell them to us along with a washing machine and double mattress that all are only 2 years old. My plan is to sell the fridge, stove & washer that we have right now and use the money from that to buy a new dishwasher. The one we have now is almost 19 years old and not working so well anymore. I am actually kind of excited about this...not the fights that I am sure are going to go along with it but then when do renos ever go easily anyway?

The other thing that I am kind of thrilled about is the plans for a little holiday after DJ gets home. We are planning to go visit Six for a few days. We're going to either go to Canada's Wonderland or to Darien Lake in NY. If we go to Darien Lake, we're hoping to camp overnight. I haven't been camping in a few years...well, more its more than a few. The last time I was 6 months pregnant with Ethan. Wow, how time flies when you're having fun!
