ramblings
I’m tired and glad that tomorrow is Thursday. What a long, but short at the same time, week this has been. I’ve been keeping busy at work and feeling not so hot the past few days but oh well, what can I do about that. Just take care of myself and hope it goes away. I think it slowly is going away. At least it’s happening now and not on the weekend. There has been almost 2 years of anticipation building for this weekend for Carli and I. I’m officially calling it “Laura & Carli do Cape Enrage”. I am taking Carli rapelling, as part of her MOH gift, and…

Two weeks.
Two weeks from today my hubby will be part of an ‘exclusive club.’ One with a ‘secret’ ceremony. He will become an Engineer with the iron ring….well, an engineer without his professional stamp (that’ll come in another 4 or so years) but still. But to many, the iron ring is it. He’s worked long and hard for this little (well size 10 isn’t so little I guess) pinky ring. He’s going to be beaming. As am I. I just wish I could go, but alas, I do not have an iron ring or am I graduating from Eng. this year so I cannot attend. I will still see him off…
