The News

Well, I passed my mental health exam, despite being in the middle of one very crazy PCS (that's military code for moving). Thanks!

People have been asking about our housing situation and as of today, we actually know less than nothing. I went to the housing office today to make sure there's not something I ought to be doing and they said there's a meeting happening today because they found that so many of us on these streets are PCSing soon (no kidding! this is where the students live who're here for only 8 months, but you know). So, they're maybe going to push back the demolition date. We'll keep you posted. I'd kinda got a little excited about living in a brand new house though - even if it is only for a month.

This weekend, we went *dah dah dah DAH* SAILING!! Yes, the maiden voyage of the SS Awesome. Rob and I really like our boat! It sails really well and is just a good boat. We're very pleased. We're hoping to sail more before we leave the lovely Gulf Coast - hopefully in slightly warmer weather! It was chilly wading in the water to put the boat up as the sun set and the temperature dropped!


Also, I am playing crud! It's SO fun! I'm not sure all who plays it, but it's mainly in military circles. It is played on a crud table (but for us on pool tables, because of the lack of crud tables) with a white ball and a colored ball. Very basically, the offensive player uses the white ball to hit the colored one trying to get the colored one in a hole, to stop, or to be difficult for the next player to hit. The girls' tournament is March 20 and the 95th (Rob's squadron) team is playing a bunch of other teams from other areas of the base. Cheer for the Boneheads (us)! YAY!

At the scrimmage night on Thursday - Patty leans in to tap the colored ball while the other team tries to block.
