"Little Orange Car"

Goodbye..."Little Orange Car" I will miss you dearly. I could always find you in the parking lot, it was easy to tell people where I lived-you were their landmark, you drove me all the way from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean, you still looked new at 7/8yrs old, ran like a beast, got amazing gas mileage, and even though the cops loved to pull me over for your unique color (& out-of-state plates) you have been my favorite car.

Today the "Little Orange Car" is no longer mine. She has been sold.


On a semi-related note... I kind of feel like I keep having to give things up for this PCS. First it was my babies:

Anyway:
Here's to a new place, new friends, new church, new job (I hope!) and possibly... new pets & a new car. We are just under a week away now... that is if nothing changes again! Haha.

East Coast

Well, we're back on the east coast... it's so freakin' cold! I want Arizona weather back... *sigh*

Hubby got to come out for my friend's wedding which was awesome, we had to wait for that leave to go through while he was training. After the wedding my parent's took us to California with them for a week on the beach! We also got the military tickets for Disneyland & California Adventure. It was great! If you are in Cali or will be traveling there look into it! You can get a 3-day park hopper for $99/ea and up to 40% off hotel rooms.

Sunset from our balcony.

The California Adventure's "World of Color" show... I highly recommend! Make sure you get a fast pass so you are guaranteed a seat!

A little silliness on the California Adventure boardwalk =)

We got the phone call yesterday that our HHG had arrived and that our POV was waiting for us in port. They wanted to know where to deliver the HHG and when we'd be coming to pick up our car... well... the car in a couple weeks, the HHG... yeah, we still don't have a place to live! The base housing wait list is ridiculously long and finding off-base housing on the internet is quite a chore. It also doesn't help that the timezones are so different. I'm sure we'll be pounding pavement during the 10 days of house hunting leave...

This sure has been a long, drawn out PCS process... haha. We may be squeezing in one more day trip before we leave this place for real. I'll update if we do!

Words

Mrs. Yellow Ribbon is at it again with her fun link-up... she's even coined it "Show & Tell Tuesday."

This week... words or phrases you use all the time.

1. Little - Used to describe the guinea pigs, dogs, or young children. Example: "Oh, what a cute little!" or "Come here little!"
   
   
2. Seriously - Used more as a manner of expression, could be replaced by the word really or the phrase "did that just happen?" Imagine if you saw someone doing something extremely dumb... "Seriously?!"
   
   
3. Tweans - My husband actually made it up and theoretically it doesn't apply to anything anymore since it was a combination of our guinea pigs' names (Twix & Beans) and we sadly had to give them away for the PCS. Now it has just become something silly we say to each other.
   
   
4. Lady - I call all my girl friends this... seriously. If you get a text, e-mail, or facebook comment from me and you are a female this word is bound to be in it. I even greet my friends in person with "Hey lady" instead of "Hey {insert name here}" ... sometimes I wonder if I am annoying?
   
   
5. Messed up - Used in reference to anything I don't think is right/like. "That's messed up!"

There are plenty of other words and phrases I use, but they are not very interesting or unique. However, I'm sure some of the other ladies are... so go link up. =)
