Day 20

Another day, another day.  I started the day with a doctor's appointment, where I learned absolutely nothing except that my primary doctor should have the report in 24-48 hours.  You have to love that whole code of silence, "we'll tell you when we feel like it" thing doctors have going.

I got a phone call from Ben this afternoon.  Not much has changed for him...he still works way too much and sleeps way too little (at least in my opinion...he doesn't share that opinion).  I understand why things are as crazy as they are.  They're working on getting a brand new base off the ground, and they're still trying to hit their stride as far as operations go.  On top of that, there's really nothing else for them to do - they're supposed to be getting phones and internet and a PX and a post office, but no one seems to know exactly when all of this is going to happen.  Well, I'm sure someone knows, but Ben doesn't...lol.

Not much else happened today.  Taryn was my guest photographer today:

For those of you who might not believe it, yes...that's really me, and I'm really cooking.  For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, the running joke in the family is that the kids survive on TV dinners when Ben is deployed because I hate cooking.  Now I have photographic proof - I may not like cooking, but I still do it!

See everyone on day 21...
