Strike 8

I might have to stop numbering these days.  I'm starting to find it somewhat depressing and annoying.  Each time I talk to Hubby we discuss provisions that have been made by the company and by us personally that indicate that the expectation is that this could go on for quite some time.  There are now reservations that need to be cancelled and appointments that have to be postponed.  There is a glitch in his coming home plans, but hopefully they can be resolved.  This morning he told me he had "great" news......I found it somewhat disappointing.  He is getting a "raise" of sorts for his duty.  As much as I find this good news, I made the point that the only "great" news is that it is over and he is coming home.  Izzy keeps guard at the bedroom door every night waiting for him.  OK....enough of the pity party....after all, I really have so little to complain about!!  He has come to terms with his laundry situation.  I'm sure that his co-workers are happy that he will have clean clothes.  He is looking forward to a day off on Wednesday.  One of his co-workers (a guy) has the day off too.  I hope they find something enjoyable and relaxing to do.  They certainly deserve it!!

Today I got my car inspected and did a little shopping. It was good to be out running errands.  I enjoyed a nice dinner with a friend tonight too.  I feel a little energized again, and ready to tackle some of the things I need to finish this week.......and of course there are a couple of sewing projects I want to work on.  That always makes me happy!

Gratitude for:
- Sales!  Hubby has new work clothes!
- My car passed inspection
- All things fabric......(hint of more to come in the future)
