Hey ladies! Just wanted to say Happy New Year! And a belated Merry Christmas. I hope everyone's holidays were fabulous.
Things have been super busy around here. I totally meant to to Christmas/Holiday cards this year and had even started making them but then I had a huge allergic reaction and ended up in the ER a few days before Christmas so all of my best laid plans have gotten tossed out the window. Turns out that something like 90% of all tablets (pills) use lactose as a binder so I've had to toss all my pills and go to liquids. Even my prednisone pills had it in them but we didn't realize that until the other day so now I get a few more days of prednisone but in liquid form this time. I can honestly say that it is probably the grossest thing that I have ever had to take and I am going to work today to beg my pharmacist to flavor it for me, it's that bad! I'm still a little grumpy from all the prednisone but good to go otherwise.
Christmas here was good. I was still pretty drugged so we just stayed home and played with the new toys and I slept most of the day. No big plans for New Years Eve. I close in the pharmacy and then have to be back at 10 tomorrow morning so no parties for me! Mostly we've just been busy helping Bethany prepare to leave. She leaves for basic training on the 19 of January and is in a hurry for the day to just get here. I'm not sure Mom is ready for her to leave but we're all so proud of her and excited for her. I think Mom and I are more excited to be able to travel to see her than anything else. Her tentative grad date is in March so the family will head to Texas to see her graduate basic training and then her linguistics training is just outside of Monterey, CA so we're excited to be able to travel down there and site-see (and maybe see Beth!!) LOL Dad has no desire to travel (and getting him on an airplane takes LOTS of drugs) so Mom and I are already making plans.
Krista, any helpful hints to pass on to Beth before she goes? You and Chris both have given us a lot already and she is very greatful so, any last words of wisdom to pass along before she goes?
How was everyone's holidays? I'll be better about updating here, I promise. It's my New Year's resolution.
Love you!

Chris says bring two rolls of quarter..no cash. You have to track the serial numbers on your bills. There's no numbers on quarters.
You, as visitors, don't expect to see a lot of her. It's a bunch of teasing. They run by, but can't even wave. They stand in front of you for 2 hours, but you can't talk to them. There are times when you schedule to see her but the TI's like taking that away if the squardron is bad.
I asked mom if she can remember anything to bring or not bring. And Chris and I will think about it!
Good luck to Bethany!
