Planet Wilder

Just a little squeeky toy from yesteryear. I think this is Drew’s chew toy when he was a baby.

There’s probably a culture where it’s a taboo to wear a holey sock. I like this particular sock though. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside when I wear it.

This is my 2nd attempt at the P90X workout. I don’t like chubs and I want to be able to look at myself and like what I see. I tried to workout at the community center but that didn’t work out too well. The first time I did the P90x Jovie was still waking up every 2-3 hrs and now that she’s sleeping more I can do this workout in peace.

Besides the chubs thing I want to just be healthy. My body does so much for me and I want to give back. It’s only right I think.

Miss M got her teeth pulled this day. She was really good about it because she’s been seeing this dentist since she was a year old. There’s trust and fuzzy feelings between her and her dentist and this helped A LOT. If only you know what a huge magma M is. When she got her ears pierced, it was her own idea too, two adults had to hold her down. She was glad after and said that it didn’t hurt much but goodness! Her teeth pulling event… if only she knew! I hope Jovie can have a great dentist to build a relationship with!

I didn’t forget or miss day 37. It’s in M’s camera and I don’t have an SD card reader. So I am still going on my project 365!

Today’s photo is a photo of our vintage suitcases. We like to collect old things. The Drew and I are like night and day, drunk and sober, thick and thin. You get the picture… DIFFERENT. But we respect each other, stay sweet to one another (most of the time) and have a few things in common. One is antiquing.

This picture reminds me of our BIG move across the pond. We’re getting ready to schedule the motherlode pick-up. Yup yup yup, it’s getting closer! It’s so exciting and I’ve learned a lot already from Googling (amazing what one can find) and message boards. The last few weeks the husband and I have been oogling at houses on the Internet. There’s one house that seems promising. Where the house is at the town seems old, the school is good, the pub is down the road, it’s not close to the base, and there’s a garage big enough for Jane – the ’62 Impala. It’s not a period home but it seems comfortable and with a few splashes of paint and decor we think we can make it really homey. Housing has been really hard. There are many of them but not too many that fits our needs. The charming period homes have either been too far away or not within a good catchment (school district) and the ones nearby would cost us an arm and a leg to heat up — and probably wouldn’t pass base inspection (in the U.K. the base has to inspect the houses before a military personnel can rent).
