I'm back.
I have Internet service again.
It came at a perfect time. I felt like I was going to have to walk around with my pink laptop begging for WiFi. The TLF (temporary living facility or basically a hotel room for you non-military folks) had no WiFi either place.
Now we're in a house in Oklahoma unpacking. I hate unpacking. And figuring out how I want my house designed. Now I know why people hire interior designers. Only I can't afford an interior designer so I'm just winging it and hoping my home doesn't look like a Hoarder home.
It's my birthday today. I share it with Father's Day so this means I can't say something like, "But it's my birthday. I insist." Because then Tom can be like, "It's Father's Day. I also insist."
Tom leaves tomorrow for Korea. At least he'll be back for good in August. Still, I'm a little wary being in a new place. I'm awful with directions so I hope I don't end up in the middle of Oklahoma. I do have a GPS but there have been times where its led me to an apartment complex and not the destination I wanted.
Anyway.
I just wanted to pop in and say hello. I've missed the Blog World. I've had all sorts of things I wanted to write. Eventually I'll post pictures of the new house. Granted, we only have half of stuff here. The other half sits in a warehouse in Wyoming.
I'll write about that sometime next week.
For now I better head off. We're checking out the nearby mall and eating at The Cheesecake Factory.
Have I mentioned their White Chili is amazing? If you ever go, get their White Chili.
And cheesecake, of course.

Glad you made it in one piece, with half of your stuff, anyway! Sorry to see Tom go back to Korea, but YEAH! he'll be home soon for GOOD! Good luck unpacking everything and finding a place for everything! Hang tough!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you made is safely! Best of luck getting use to the surroundings!
ReplyDeleteYay! Glad you are there safe. I would have gone begging for WiFi DAYS ago :) You are made of stronger stuff apparently.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got there safely. Good luck on getting your house together. Just go one room at a time.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! I sometime share my birthday with Mother's Day. Lame.
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you back and thank goodness you all got there safely. Mmmmm. Cheesecake.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're back!
ReplyDeleteI don't really trust a GPS, either. It's nice for getting you nearby where you want to be, but I've had it try to veer me off a cliff or into someone's yard more than once.
Happy Birthday!! Glad you're back on the internet world. :D
ReplyDeleteI'm glad we're twitter friends so I knew you hadn't been abducted by those scary movers. ;) Happy birthday to you and happy father's day to the hubby! Hope you get settled and your other half (of stuff) gets there ASAP!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!! Happy Birthday!! Enjoy the Cheesecake Factory, and good luck unpacking!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday dear and glad you made it safely.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!! The Cheesecake Factory is like heaven on earth. David took me to one in San Antonio and I thought I would just die. They have an Oriental salad that is to die for. I wasn't able to finish it cause it was humongous. But that place is great.
Hello lovely...happy birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! Hope you have a good one!
ReplyDeleteYay for being back, and boo for unpacking. I have always hated unpacking...but I try to trick myself by thinking it is a good opportunity to get organized. Of course that might actually work if I actually did get organized. lol
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday and Happy Father's Day to Tom! I hope you have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Amber!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it safely to your new place.
:)

ReplyDeleteHope its a great year!
The joys of military life...unpacking and re-settling into the new life in the new location, new friends, new neighbors, new, new, new...sounds like you're in a great location. Enjoy every moment!

YAY! I'm glad you are getting settled. Happy Birthday... mine is this month too and I celebrate all month long and that totally trumps Father's Day :) But I guess since he is heading back to Korea...
ReplyDeleteGlad you are settling in and Happy Birthday to you!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! Being in a new place is stressful, but try to enjoy it...it's all blog fodder! And seriously, if you unpack something and can't find a place for it, toss it out. That will make room for buying new stuff. Oh, and enjoy that white chili and cheesecake!
ReplyDeleteIt's always good to settle in. I hate moving. Can't imagine how tough it is to do it at the whim of the military.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!
And, just at the time you get every thing where you want it and unpacked, Tom will be home safe and sound... and telling you where he wants it all. :)
Welcome back! Missed reading you, can't wait to read all the stuff you've thought of. Happy birthday to you also! So sorry Tom goes back, but in under 2 months, he'll be home for good. Just keep thinking that and you'll be okay.
ReplyDeleteMmm... cheesecake!
Hey, Happy birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteI just wnated to say... at least you're well away from the deer in the yard. And from the aliens that lurked in your laundry hamper in your old house. You left them behind, I hope? :) Good to see you back!
Welcome back and happy birthday! Hope you and Tom have a wonderful evening together at The Cheesecake Factory. Can't wait to hear about everything that has transpired over that last couple weeks.
ReplyDeleteHELLO!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday....Hope you have a Beautiful Day!
Can't wait to see pic of the new home!
Happy Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's day Tom!

ReplyDeleteI love the cheesecake factory because their entrees can make 2-4 meals for me. Plus, of course, the cheesecake.
ReplyDeleteGood luck unpacking.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the move! Can't wait to see the house. I don't trust my GPS either, instead of taking me to a meeting, it took me to the ball park. OK, so that would have been more fun, but I needed to be at the meeting! lol
ReplyDeleteEnjoy getting settled in.
