I might kill a mouse.

So the mouse doesn't work at all now.

It is so aggravating trying to get things done without the mouse.

Don't get me wrong.

I'm grateful we have a touch screen, BUT, there are some functions the mouse has that I do not know how to do on a touch screen.

Stupid technology.

When I went to bed last night, my throat was starting to bother me.

I had body aches.

I feel rough.

When the alarm when off this morning, I debated letting everyone sleep in, but

Autumn had state testing today, so we had to get up and get going.

Dropped the kids off to their school and then when by your mom's.

Julie left Winston and Holly's water socks at our house.

I stayed there for a little bit and then went to Fort Benning.

I hit up the class six first and bought an ingredient:


I needed 1/2 a cup to a cup of whiskey for something I'm making this week and to buy enough with all the mini bottles, would have cost $10. This bottle cost $10.90.

I did feel like an alcoholic though. It was 9 am!!

I headed over to Occupational therapy next.

I showed my therapist where my arm was bothering me.

It is the muscle on top of your arm below your elbow.

It feels more like tendons that hurt.

She massaged me out and told me not to do any exercises at home until my next appointment.

We both concluded that if it were muscular, it should feel better by now (my last appt was Wed or Thurs).

After OT, I tried to talk my self out of running.

I really tried.

I was going to walk.

We are supposed to get storms tomorrow and I only need 5 miles to hit my goal of 45 miles this month, so I

talked myself into walking,


but once I got out there, I just went at a comfortable pace and didn't look at my watch until I was done.

There was no way I was going to do intervals today though. I would have died.

I went to the commissary. Grabbed Millie from school. Ran to Walmart for an ingredient they didn't have at the commissary.

Found a tutu swimsuit for Millie that was $8.


I gassed up the Jeep.

I need to start driving the Jeep more than once a week.

I noticed that it "acts up" less when I drive it more.

So, I will drive it on Tuesday and Thursday.

Picked up Autumn from school.

Figured out the May fitness challenge.

We are doing dead lifts and plank rows. I hope people can figure those exercises out. They are good ones.

I'm a little worried they will be too hard for some.

Your mom came over and visited with the girls.

We just had dinner (leftover spaghetti and meatballs).

I'm sending everyone to bed at 7 pm tonight.

We are all tired.

Exhausted.

Sad.

And many other things.

I think we are going to go and do something fun this weekend.

We haven't done much since you left.

I love you.

Your current wife and favorite airman. xoxo

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

Playing with fire.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
