Hello??? (Echo, echo, echo.....)

Things are starting to settle down a bit here - sort of.

On Thursday night, my laptop finally died.  No power, no spark, nothing.  So on Friday morning, My Marine took it in to The Geek Squad.  I figured it was safer to have him do it than me since I was tempted to just throw it at them and scream FIX IT NOW in my best PMS-like voice.  (You know the one ladies, that voice that sounds like Satan is rising from deep inside you....)

After we picked up Nani at VBS Friday afternoon, we drove up to Breckenridge - in the mountains of Colorado - for our state's Family Readiness conference.  I recently took on the role of being our unit's FRG (Family Readiness Group) leader and hubby is the unit coordinator.  (I wasn't doing this alone!).  I'm really excited about this and the entire weekend was a blast!  I will write more about the conference and the awesome speakers we had over the next few days!

So, we got back late Sunday night, had a couple hours on Monday to recover before My Marine left again this morning for another couple days of duty.  Hopefully he'll have the holiday weekend off!

But I can't complain too much -- especially since he left his laptop behind for me to use.  What a sweetie!

So, I'll be back throughout the week with some great book reviews, giveaways, and tales from the mountain getaway!  I'll be catching up with some blog reading too! 

Can't wait to see what you've all been up to!
