Some things on my mind right now...

• Posting Season is upon us which can mean a lot to someone who lives their life in the military or a spouse of someone who is military. This year's posting season is a batch of mixed emotions for me. First of all, Petawawa has many new people coming this year. Much more than usual. I'm really looking forward to meeting new people in hopes that they won't be as terrible as some of the women who are already here! lol We are looking forward to having some neighbors as most of the Q's around us are empty. We also look forward to some of our not-so-nice neighbors leaving! On the flip side, we will miss many of our friends who will be leaving shortly. These are the people who made Petawawa home for us. I have heard of 6 of our friends leaving and I'm sure I will hear of more. What's even more sad is I know we're here pretty much forever....

• I'm totally in love with a new magazine I received in the mail today. It's called Fresh Juice and it's brand new. I never read books these days nor do I really have time to read articles in a magazine. And I didn't order this one (or any of the other 5 I get on a monthly basis) because I have a secret magazine subscription admirer. And I ave no idea who it is. Anyway, it's full of healthy living articles and a ton of healthy recipes. freshjuice.ca

•  I got my hair cut for the first time in months and I hate it.

• I'm so frustrated with trying to find a house here. We are sort of  actively looking for a place to buy in the area and it seems like Petawawa just doesn't have houses large enough to fit a big family (read:family of six) Not in our price range or anywhere close to it. The majority have 2-3 bedrooms and 1-2 bathrooms and a medium sized back yard. We are looking for a 4 bedroom, 2-3 bathrooms, and a large backyard and lots of living space. Quite the contrast. Oh and Chad wants a garage. We're looking to buy anywhere between now and next April. Quite the timeline, I know. We are so lucky with the Q we're in. And it's enough space for all of us right now. But not for long.

• I love Pinterest.
