January 1, 2006

It is thirty minuets until 2006 and I am typing in my blog. At first blush this may appear truly pathetic, but I am not unhappy with the situation. Hubby-O-Mine is on duty again. And that's not so bad either. His boat made the intelligent decision to give married guys Chrismas off and give the single guys New Years Eve off. It's the smartest thing I've ever seen the Navy do. I loved having him home from Christmas (he wasn't last year). And with me pregnant, New Years Eve just doesn't have the same appeal to me this year. So, things are as they should be.

My dogs don't agree. They are panic stricken and hiding out in the walk-in-closet. The neighbors are setting off fireworks from across the pond (retention pond that is) and it's giving the pooches a terrible fright. The way my Chihuahua is shaking you would think World War III just touched off in our back yard. Well, it's Georgia. What can you expect. I am ready for some sleep. It is exciting that tomorrow is a new day and a new year. 2005 was a blast. There were MANY exciting trips to visit our families. Plus, we hosted many such visits in our home as well. We threw BBQs and parties, took trips, had wedding showers and wedding plans. The "Big Day" was storybook and perfect to say the least. Our honeymoon was a dream come true. And to top it off, we are expecting a baby. A PERFECT year. Look out 2006! We have many adventures to look forward to (No more Navy, new city, new house, new baby) but 2005 will be a tough act to follow.
