Well, I got called out for not doing this last week. My B. It surprisingly warmed my heart though that people do read. Sometimes I feel like all of this is just stupid, but then I remember that I do want these memories one day, and I am for sure not going to be able to remember them all when I leave this place, so it is necessary to keep the blog. Here is what I am loving today:
- Finding blueberries at the commissary...I've been really wanting to make blueberry muffins
- Having a car and paying it forward- today I was able to help a friend out by driving her a couple of places. Not a big deal, but it nice to know that I am able to help people the way James and I were helped when we first got here
- Cereal. It's a cereal for dinner kind of night.
- A friend's surprise visit
- My landlord that came down with the heating technician to translate and look at my house
- Downton Abbey. Obsessed. And successfully hooked all of my friends out here on it
- Open shutters- reminded how much natural light can really change and brighten a day
- The precious time I get in the car with James
- A Valentine's Day package that came in the mail!!! My box of chocolates is already half way gone...
- The funny card and amazing chocolate my sweet boy gave me
- Finding an awesome pizzeria down the street
- Learning how to say Happy Valentine's Day in Italian! San Valentino!!
- Resiliency training provided by the Army Community Services
- Random emails
- Finally catching friends on Skype
- Meaningful conversations about the road ahead with James
- Eucalyptus Shower gel
- The laughter of my friends little girl
I read this! I'm a little obsessed. It's bookmarked on our iPad. Don't judge...there's just not a lot going on in Iowa!
