Today's combination of rain and wind made the water look like a helicopter was landing in the bay. For a few seconds I tried looked way up out of the window to see if there was an actual helicopter.
In my defense I do live on a military base so it is possible.
Since it was raining I thought to myself, several times, that I should finish painting my living room.
Instead, I baked cupcakes.
(I might have eaten half the batter... might...)
Then I ate half of the cupcakes that I baked.
Go me.

Oh... Hello!
Wow... a WHOLE month without a blog post from me. Sorry about that. We're working on the whole internet thing. It just keeps falling to the bottom of our list.
We're still in love with our new town, but all of the locals spurt out, "Wait until the rain gets here!" It's not worrying me that much. Although we did recently have a tsunami warning. It only rose our seas a few inches.
D is busy mess cooking- which he hates. All newbies have to do this early upon their initial arrival. He's counting down the days until his last day of scrubbing dishes for 13 hours a day. After that he'll start learning and studying communications. He's been out on the boats a few times and LOVES it.
I've been spending half my days watching my neighbor's 17-month-old son, G. He's definitely a busy boy. It's a good arrangement for the two of us: his mom gets to go back to work while I get paid and get to use their washer/ dryer for laundry. I'm also still painting the inside of our house. Since the sun has been out so much I've been putting off finishing until it starts raining.
We're getting to know our neighbors really well, and spend a lot of time with them. We've had lots of dinners together but mostly hang out in our front yards. One couple has taught us how to fish for crab. I currently have 14 crabs frozen in my freezer.
I'll end the post with a picture of D the day that he graduation from boot camp. Note how stinkin' skinny he is.
