Oh boy...I did it again. I let the time go even longer. I find that I spend way less time on the computer when the hubby is home...Andrew returned home after being gone the entire summer and spring with just a 2 week vacation squished in between on 22 September. We have been together eveer since...I think this is the longest he has been home in a LONG while, by no means am I complaining. In fact, I love it...I treasure it. I wish it was real...and that this was my life on the daily. But, the reality is, that it is not. I am slotted to leave early July-end of August and andrew is to deploy in the fall. Not sure how all this will play out in the end...but it's on my radar for sure.
So, what has happened in the last few months?...the most important things I guess to hit on was on our first time snowboarding for the season I fell, and I fell hard and ended up getting a deep bone bruise of my tibia. The bruise was so bad in fact Dr said I was less than a half an inch from breaking the entire top piece of my tibia off. It's healing slowly...and by slowly I mean not at all it seems like. No running for me which has made me feel incapable of doing much of anything else but I am getting thru it. With a will, there is a way. I have started swimming and doing other forms of cardio. My goal of completing a full marathon is not out of sight for me this year, it's just delayed.
We had a wonderful holiday...I couldn't have asked for any better. I have begun my studying marathon which has been proving to be very good thus far. My test date is 22 March and I am stoked, that is a great date and I have 2 more months to study over what I have already got down pat at this point. E-6 is in my future this year, I feel it.
Lyla is so grown up now, I look at her baby pictures and want to literally cry. Everything about her has changed, she is the sweetest little girl ever and there are days I question if this is really the child I gave birth to. She talks so grown and seems to understand more than I give her credit for...other than all that, we are good around here. Coming off a rough year I am happy and relieved to start a new. I am hoping 2012 brings good things to many.
Tomorrow we are off to see the Steelers beat the Bronocs!! Most excited I have been in a long while. Hope I can keep up with this more often but it's unlikely :)
Lyla and Daddy few days before Christmas
Darn, the steelers lost. ;)
