03 May 09 Circuit Training

...so I went with Beth today to do circuit training...boy was it rough and maybe I will feel it in a couple of days, but my legs are the only thing that really hurt...tomorrow is weights adn spinning :) so I got a chance to met with Anne again today before she is off on her deployment {hopefully her last}....we were staationed together as lab techs in Portsmouth VA back in 1996!!! and I haven't seen her since she went to nursing school back in 1999 {I think}...it was so good to just chat for awhile, just like it was yesterday that I saw her...hard to believe our kids are 16 now !!!! we are now friends on facebook so I can't wait to be able to catch up with her more..she also added me to her Skype and now we should be able to talk will we are both on deployment....Ro made it to Qatar, called me on Skype while she was having a beer :) Said that got in at o dark thirthy this morning and she slept right through breakfast {and she NEVER misses breakfast!!!}....good to hear her voice, kindda lonely without a roomate, nobody to talk to....called and talked to the kids a couple of times today and will probably call again before I go to bed, shortly....they are watchin "Obbinsons" right now...somebody is coming over to get one of the baby kitties today, so one down and many more to go :) "Nacho" has been missing for over a week now so I have a feeling she has found a new home :( so we have adopted one of her babies, "THOKTH" {which is how Abby says it, but her real name is SOCKS"...I will share a picture later....

so here is the story behind Ben and the elephant ear...

We went to the Tulip festival in Apr 2005 and started our day fairly early at like 8 am...we decided to have a littlesnack and Ben and Matt got an elephant ear to share..well as you KNOW it is pretty much STRAIGHT SUGAR!!!!...so we decided to go to Burlington to the mall and do some shopping and for some reason Ben started sayin "IT'S NOT DA STORE, IT'S NOT DA STORE" and did that NON-STOP while we were in the car driving between stores {Best Buy, the Mall, etc} and on the way out of Burlington {he was STILL SAYING when we went through the Krispy Kreme drive-thru {it is about 615 pm and he has NOT had a nap at all}...and as soon as we turned down the main road to come home...the SUGAR was GONE and hit him like a TON OF BRICKS...he slept for like 12 hours that night!!! so that is the story BEHIND the elephant ear!
