Weekenders

This weekend was nice & relaxing, Ben and I took dinner to a guy in his squadron who is med-down & has no wifey-poo to take care of him...conveniently a few of his buddies were over at his house just in time to get in on some of the meal :)

Then, Ben got to go see Tranformers II w/ a friend from church, while his wife and I stayed home & watched Princess Protection Program on the Disney Channel! (yes we stayed in on a perfectly good Friday night to watch it, no shame)... and topped it off w/ some blueberry cobbler (from my 2 gallons of hand-picked blueberries)! It was fun, corny & relaxing all at the same time.

YAY for Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez & crazy morfing robot cars.

Right now, Ben has a friend from his squadron over & they are studying for their first big instruments test tomorrow...they are quizzing each other w/ a bunch of acronyms and knots and numbers that I don't even pretend to understand.

But, I have been able to be a good study buddy to Ben lately...sometimes I even quiz him. See, you probably don't know what a Spin is in airplane terms. But I do.

And I know what a 1/2 cuban eight is.

Yes, I know...I am impressive.

But, anyway, I am also being a good little study buddy by actually studying w/ him now! I am starting some preliminary courses for nursing in the fall & have a couple of entrance exams to take that I am able to study for now.

It feels good to be using my mind intellectually again...I love it. Didn't think I'd ever say that, but its true...I like studying.

I know, I am weird. But calculators & sharpening pencils just gets me excited!
