OH WHAT FUN!!!!

• So I haven't had the chance to update this blog in forever because a lot has happened. I'm not going to go into everything here but most of the people who read this know most of what has happened so we'll leave it at that for now. I don't even remember the last time I updated but I think it was Memorial Day so we'll start with after that.
• Well Tuesday and Wednesday I went to base to get paperwork and appointments out of the way. Thursday was my birthday so there was a small party. It was a fun night...the day wasn't all that great but I really enjoyed the evening. It was the first time I had, had a party in like forever. Deb and her family came and Amanda and the boys came. I couldn't have asked for more.
• Friday I left Salt Lake City at noon-ish and spent the day in airports going to Biloxi, Mississippi to see my Best Friend in the whole world. I had the most relaxing weekend I could ever imagine...I fell in love with Mississippi and would love to live there one day. Anyways, instead of getting there at 9 something my flight didn't get in until almost 11 and I was beat. So when we got back to his apartment I fell asleep quickly.
• Saturday we got up early, Ben made breakfast and we drove to New Orleans. We explored the World War II museum. Then we headed to the French Quarters. I loved New Orleans as well. We had lunch there as well...amazing shrimp ceasar salad. We drove back to Biloxi and we were both tired so we took a short nap. When we went out again we headed to Ocean Springs where we hit the BEST BBQ place I have ever been. If you ever go to Biloxi/Gulfport/Ocean Springs, MS you have got to visit The Shed. I'm not kidding the absolute best BBQ food ever. After that we hit a pier in Ocean Springs...so peaceful. We visited a lighthouse on the way home. At home again we changed and went out to the Hard Rock and another casino...I lost two dollars on the slots which wasn't bad at all.
• Sunday we got up and ready. Then we just went for a drive. It was awesome. We stopped and waded in the water before going to lunch. After lunch we went and got ready for some swimming. We spent about an hour at the beach and in the water before it started raining. Ben had to do some studying with friends for a test the next day...so I just kind of chilled. He had to get something at Wal-Mart so I went along and grabbed a notebook. While the three guys studied I wrote and read. When they finished studying Ben and I ate and then sat back and watched The Dark Crystal. I had never seen it and loved it. We spent the rest of the night talking and hanging out.
• Monday he was at PT and school so I just spent the day relaxing until I had to get to the airport. I didn't want to leave I had fallen in love with Mississippi. I spent the day reading, writing and I even went to the beach for a few minutes...the beach alone is not fun at all. I almost did miss my flight due to traffic being backed up for some unknown reason.
• I got back to Utah and started realizing that I needed to come back to Pennsylvania for the summer. So I packed up and headed to Deb's for the week. Saturday morning I left Salt Lake City again. I landed in Cleveland at 6:30 -ish and just kinda chilled that night. Sunday I spent the day in the sun and can't wait to do it again. Monday I just kind of hung out. Went to Wal-Mart and last night Sirena and I headed to Boardman for our first Boardman movie trip. We saw Nightmare on Elm Street and both loved it.
• Today I was going to hang out in the sun again but it wound up being icky and rainy. Sirena came over at around 1 and we hung out for a while watching movies and talking. I organized my stuff in the living room a bit. Next Monday and Tuesday my room will be cleaned out so that all the craft stuff is downstairs and my bed can go back in there. So for now I am living in the living room and basement...lol.
• Tomorrow I am hoping it will be a lot warmer and no rain so that I can go out and relax in the sun. Got to get me some sun on my legs...they are whiter than paper...kinda sad. I'm gonna have to find me some tanning oil for them...then take my book out and just chill. I'm going to start working out tomorrow as well I think. I need to do something to keep in shape at least.
• So that is how my crazy life has gone the past few weeks. I can't believe it is almost the 4th of July already. I look forward to a summer of working, hanging out, camping and family reunions. I look forward to the beach with everybody in August and the Canfield Fair in September. Oh what fun summers in Pennsylvania/Ohio bring. Later all!!!
