Socrates

Well, today is the last day of the 4day weekend. I've really enjoyed having Alex home all day for 4 days straight. Surprisingly, we haven't really gone 'out'. No clubs, no movies, no dates. The only place we went was Ireane and Felix's for a few hours. Thats okay I guess. I really wanted to go out though.

I got a recipe online for Panda Express's orange chicken. I will probably try it sometime this week. I'll let you know how it turns out.

The other night a cat wondered up, and I took a liking to him. And yes, I fed him. He came back last night, and I fed him again. He seem's well taken care of and very friendly, so I don't think he's a stray. Either way, I don't mind if he hangs out with us sometimes.

We are thinking about moving into a bigger apartment this month. I'm going to call the office and see if there are any available. I don't know, we'll see.

Also, while I had wanted to wait until right before he gets deployed to make another trip to Wichita falls, I think we are going to have to go this fall. We really are going to need our winter clothes, and there are household items there I paid for that are just going to waste. Ireane and Felix offered to rent the truck and go with us, but that still leaves the issue on how to pay for an $800 truck. So I'm thinking maybe we just take the car up there, get our clothes and tv and whatever else we can fit, and worry about the rest later.
Well, Alex isn't feeling so good so I'm gonna go see if theres something I can do.

Hey Darling,
Socrates looks like he is all that and more. I am glad he is hanging out with you some because I know how much you miss Dido and your other animals. Do let me know how the chicken turns out! If it is good I would like to try it. I think I finally perfected the wholewheat peach cobbler. You do have to tweak a bit when you alter recipes to make them more healthy. It still has plenty of sugar though! I hope Alex is all better today! Last night I made laundry detergent again. It turned out well. I added different natural oils to scent it so it smells good. I hope you are feeling better this morning too and I am glad the physical therapy isn't too grueling. I love you, Mama

I'll be starting chapter four tommorrow. I am enjoying every word! What a treat. I am amazed at your imagination and ability all over again! I love you, Mama

Do you want me to send you some fresh ground flour for your efforts?

I mean your baking efforts not your writing efforts :) I love you, Mama
