Boneshaking, Weather Changing, Blissful Funniness

It's been a busy month for us. C has been quite literally working almost constant and I've been doing a lot of stuff 'behind the scenes' as in laundry/errands/walking dogs that kind of thing. The weather this week has been definitely something to write home about in terms of bizarre. Everything from wind to rain to hail to snow to sun! Don't blink because every 5 minutes it will change.

Started reading a steampunk airpirate zombie series by Cherie Priest. Still in the first book called Boneshaker. It's really good. The other two books are Clementine and then Dreadnought.

The times we are able to catch up and spend time together lately have been a lot nicer. Last week C took me out for a really nice sushi/steak dinner in Olympia. It was one of those places where they make your dinner in front of you. There was a family across from us that had all flown in from different areas around the nation to be with their son who was shipping out for Afghanistan this week. Seems like every family has someone in the War overseas these days. We had a nice time visiting with them and then did our grocery shopping afterwards before heading home.

Last night we went out to dinner at one of our favorite local spots. We hadn't been there in awhile. Dinner conversation was more animated and sober at times then we normally are. You know there's something that I find it interesting so many people ask you along the way "where do you think you'll be in a year, five years, etc.". Just planning 6 months in advance is hard enough. I'm not sure why any of us would know where we will be longer than that ;-).

So we were relaxing last night and the topic of "white dogs in the field" and "the moon is really low tonight" came up again lol...and C honestly asked me what the 'moon' was he couldn't remember. I told him it's ok..but that it was a gas station sign. Yeah that was a good trip/move. Hope the next one will be a good one too.
