Hey all! Sorry it's been so long...this week especially has been sucky.
To sum it up quickly...three seperate things in the house broke all at once, the last of which was finally fixed today. Also, Cara is sick again, but it's been a while since she's had a cold this bad. At first the doctor thought she might have asthma or bronchitis because she was so congested she was wheezing. Just as he decided she needed a chest x-ray, Cara let loose with 3 good sneezes that cleared up her lungs. Which means it's just a bunch of mucus in her sinuses that's running down her throat. So he prescribed her some drops and she's all good to go now.
Patrick's state-side right now for some training and won't be back until near the end of June, which means it's just me and Cara holding down the house right now...which is probably why all those things broke at once. Law of TDYs...if it's going to break, it'll wait until about 1 week after the spouse is gone.
Oh, and we're getting our dressers delivered this weekend! They have several furniture shops in the "Alley", a row of shops and restaurants just outside the base. So Patrick and I went to one and got 2 dressers custom-made to match our bed, since we left our old dressers state-side because they were pieces of crap. The one even has a mirror above it, so it's going to double as my vanity. (And yes...I realize how girly and uncharacteristic that is of me).
And...that's about it for now. We have a three-day weekend coming up, so I'm going to try and finally finish getting the house in order so I can take some pictures for you all.
Oh, and there are a few more Cara pictures on the way in the next day or two. Be watching!
