September 14, 2009

Dearest Fav,

So it’s Monday again. We had the little boys all weekend. Ann found a place to stay temporary for now. It’s with her new man’s friends or something like that. So the boys maybe leaving us today. It’s nice to have them around. It reminds me of when you and Mike were tiny tots. Haha. I am so sorry that I missed your call Sunday. I feel like such an idiot! L I had to go to Costco to get some dog food and I forgot to grab my phone. When I got home and checked my phone. I felt like crying. I thought about leaving a message on your voice mail but thought that it wouldn’t do much good cause you still wouldn’t be able to call your phone until the next time you could call me. I hope that you got to do something like you planned with your free time Sunday with Q Smith. Are you guys allowed off base or is there places there were you can do things like watch movies or bowl ect. It seems like it would be kind of a hassle to go off base and still get back in time to check in. I suppose there is bus services or taxis. Anywho I hope that you and Smith had a great time and that you didn’t let my missing your phone call bother you too much. We took one of the black puppies to the Vet Friday because she was all listless and sick. She didn’t test positive for parvo but the Vet still thinks she has a virus of some sort. The Vet Lovan, also wrote a script for tamaflu that we started the remaining puppies on just in case they were affected also. She called Saturday afternoon to let me know that Pony was doing great. ( I had to just now go and get a new pen. Can you tell?) Wes went and picked her up this morning. Said that she was a totally different puppy that the one he took in. Pony is all happy, playful and hungry. I’m pretty happy about the outcome. I just told the couple who bought her this morning that she had been to the Vet for care. I didn’t need to make them all worried for the whole weekend. I told them because I was going to give her a vaccination shot the morning she leaves but I can’t give her one so soon after she was sick. So I told them that they cold comeback for her last 2 that she needs for free. I have someone else coming back for the last 2 also. I never heard back from the couple from Spokane about their puppy that they took to the Vet. So I figure that no news is good news. Hey I found a book on ballistics- basic and advanced at amazon.com. it’s under $20 buck plus shipping. Do you want me to get it for you and mail it? Are you allowed books in your personal locker? That would be pretty sweet to get an Eagle for marksmanship J Does your rifle have a scope? How far are your targets? I sure hope White phase is going a lot smoother now that your platoon got rid of some dead weight. You know you are always going to have lame ass stupid f’s (LASF) where ever you go and you will wonder how in the world these LASF ever got this far with out someone knocking their lights out. Believe me I see em all the time. LOL. Be nice or whatever to them, but hang out with your own kind you know “smart asses who have a pair” (SAWHAP). Believe me it will keep you out of trouble. J If it wasn’t for Joseph I probably would have been fired a long time ago. Haha. No one understands of SAWHAP like another SAWHAP. I’m so funny sometimes. But I still feel so bad about missing your call Sunday. How totally lame of me to forget to carry my phone everywhere with me on the one day I look forward to every week. You may call me a looser for a period equal to but not greater than a whole hour :P . Take care my favorite son and favorite Smith. Say hey to Q Smith for me and tell him I said thanks for being a SAWHAP and not a LASF to my fav. I love you and miss talking to you everyday.

Love Mom
