How is it I’ve been working all day and got nothing done? I haven’t talked to Hubby but got the news that I wanted, he’s not in that hell hole anymore. I don’t know when he’ll get here. Seriously, no idea. I think my in laws might think I know more than I’m telling them but really, I’m clueless. I think they had some of our guys on a speeding bullet as fast as they got here. Yeesh!!! Which of course has me in a panic trying to get my house ready. Clothes are picked out. However my cami that I want to wear is AWOL. Hopefully it’s in the load of unmentionables that’s washing. I ran out and got him pillows (he can’t be sleeping on my shams…lol), ended up with a whole new sheet set, extra pillowcases and 2 pillows for $22. Can’t complain. The sheets are on, and sprayed with my silky sheets spray. The upstairs bathroom needs swept and mopped and the stairs need vacuumed, then I can concentrate on downstairs. I haven’t been reading or writing much, but congrats to those that got their Husbands home in the last few days!!

I think I’m just going to putter at this stuff all week. Saving the dusting, mopping, vacuuming until the moment he hits US Soil. Otherwise I’ll just have to redo it anyhow. I plan to get it down to about 3 hours work, and as soon as I hear they’ve hit the states, I’ll get started on that, get showered, dressed, hair done and ready to walk out the door. Shit…what am I wearing? Well expect pictures with options and possibly a poll.

I have a house to prepare for homecoming. It currently looks like a hurricane came through. So what did I do today? I got all my thanksgiving stuff, bought Daisy her RAW feeding items (what I can get up here), and let me tell you they sure give you strange looks when you come through with a bunch of chicken hearts, livers, gizzards, and wings..lol! Yes Daisy gets spoiled. But feeding RAW is healthier, with less fillers. She still eats her kibble (again, spoiled getting one especially for GSD’s), until we get to WA and have access to all the needed ingredients to feed purely RAW. By the way, RAW is mor economical than bagged food. That surprised me. So today was menu day.

Daisy’s Daily Menu…

Morning: one raw egg, a spoonful of pumpkin, mixed with salmon oil.
Afternoon: Kibble served at half the regular measure.
Evening: 2-3 wing drumettes, chicken hearts (2), Chicken Liver (1), Chicken Gizzards (1-3)
Snack: occasional baked sweet potato (when I can get them)

Now for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is coming late this year. I’m waiting til hubby is home. The menu includes…

Morning: Egg Nog and Cinnamon Rolls
Dinner: 20lb turkey, garlic and mushroom stuffing (in the bird), buttermilk biscuits, sweet potato casserole, candied yams (yes both), mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pies.

I also got some goodies for hubby to come home to. A 6 pack of Bud, carton of smokes, oreos, sour cream an onion chips, and a special cigar. I hate cigars, and usually forbid them in the house but this is a special occasion. I’m so nervous right now, once I hear from him tomorrow I’ll be fine. I’ll breathe and start running around like a headless chicken getting ready. I have an appointment Monday to get my hair done. I can’t wait to have him home with me, to take care of him, and cook for him, and do…stuff with him *grins*. I’m saying my prayers that he remains safe and comes home safe.
