Well, ….. I’m…………. Baaackkkkk…………
Went to Tucson for a few days. Saw some friends and did some shopping. Yeah!! They had stores that had aisles and aisles of scrap booking stuff! Hooray for me….. Boo for the budget!
One thing about Tucson — IT’S BLOODY HOT THERE! No wonder Arizonians tend to be a little on the grumpy side…. Jeesh. DD got in the car and went to buckle up, burnt herself (I had just done it too) and was quite put out. This is the kid who wants nothing more than to go back there. LOL. I think it was an eye opener. She said she had forgotten how hot it was there.
It’s also crowded with lots of traffic and did I mention the people are grumpy?? Take me back to my nice friendly island with the cool breezes and the blue waters. It may be isolated, but at least it’s not hotter than the surface of the sun!
We saw War of the Worlds while I was there (well I saw it with a friend, kids saw Madagascar) and we all went to see Sahara again. War of the Worlds is really, seriously very intense. Good movie — but holy cow. You have to remind yourself to breathe sometimes. And Sahara is awesome…. love that movie!!!!
The actual trip was not bad at all and we stayed in TLF at DMAFB. The base has made a ton of improvements and if it weren’t for the blasted furnace they live in, I wouldn’t mind being stationed there again.
Went to Hot Topix and got some blue hair coloring fo DD. Went to State Line Tack and got riding apparel for youngest DD. Wow ~ can you get any more different? Punk vs. Cowgirl LOL
Well off to unload our treasures…. and to find a box to pack and send!!
