HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

A Happy 10 months to my wonderful husband!!
I cannot believe how fast 10 months have flown by! WOW. I am so grateful for you & everything you do for us. You are truly the greatest! I am looking forward to what the future holds (hint hint, I would like a dog for Christmas) and to many, many more years with you!

And a Happy Halloween to everyone this weekend!

BUSY BUSY BUSY

You would not believe but I have 95% of Christmas presents figured out. HA! I have to though. Yes, everything about Christmas is coming extra-early this year and frankly I'm fine with that.

Matt & I have had a case of the yuckies all week. Maybe its just a stomach bug. One day its me, the next day its him. Who knows!! But its just yucky.

So we pretty much have all things set up to come. Had our pre-move survey yesterday, have flights booked, 1 out of 2 hotels booked, etc... Matt has been doing an awesome job considering all the stress he's been under trying to get everything worked out plus do his job, before we get back.

Post more when I have time.....today I'm yucky. And looking up tons of stuff regarding our insurance & changes that are being made....ugh! Can't live with it, can't live without it!

AND ITS NOT EVEN HALLOWEEN

One of the malls here in Singapore is already decorated with Christmas garland....complete with red bows and little white lights.
Sure, it put me in a festive mood & a little cheery knowing we will be coming home for good at Christmas! But it was still a little weird since it's not even Halloween yet. Hmm...
Oh well....until then we'll be celebrating the appropriate holidays around here :)

BEEN A ROUGH WEEK

So the Dills have had a bit of a rough week back in Singapore.
On top of not feeling well due to nasty colds & jet-lag, things seem to be going against us.
Matt's co-worker let the cat out of the bag about us moving back before Matt had a chance to get his team together & tell them himself. He apparently was supposed to be working on something & turns out nobody ever mentioned anything to him. Uh-oh. I, on the other hand, have had a hard time communicating with people over here & its left me nowhere but completely frustrated.
So...with all that off my chest, I can honestly say thank goodness it is Friday!!
We have our standing lunch date today & will be joining Scott (Matt's co-worker from Wales) for some happy hour time & some dinner. It will definitely be low-key but fun :)
Looking forward to a great weekend for sure!

OHHHH..............FRUSTRATION


Let's just say that I had a bit of a verbal exchange with a bus driver.

Where else in the world would some M.E. JERK try to lecture me on how to get on the bus. No, I dont think its necessary to wave at you that I want on, when you are sitting parked, doors open, and other people are in a line in front of me getting on.
RE-CAP:
1. No need to wave when the bus is sitting idle, doors, open, people getting on.

2. No need to say something to me, and no one else.

3. And next time, after we've pushed the button to get off, open the doors without me having to tell you to do so. JERK.

And I'd really like an explanation as to why you picked ME to say something to?


Ahhh nothing like being thousands of miles away from home, getting stares all day, and lectures by middle eastern creeps who FEEL the urge to say something, anything to you. Even when they are WRONG.


All it takes it 1 rotten apple to spoil the whole bunch. Definitely not a good representation of Singapore :(

COULDNT HAVE IT BETTER

Have to give some ultra kuddos to my husband, he has been such a great guy to take care of me & my cold/sinus issues.....I think I've slowly passed them along to him. Ugh.We decided that is the hardest part of being married.....getting sick & passing the yuckies back & forth.
Oh well. I'm sure its almost out of my system :(-
Fingers crossed here, lots of meds, and Vitamin C
More to come soon!

NO NO FEEL GOOD

I wish I could have a sinusectomy.....why do I even need sinuses????
Mine are filling my head, nose, cavities with tons of green snot. YUCK!
And worst of all, flying with congestion is not fun (God bless Matt) and now my right ear wont pop.
YUCKY......
More to come later, details of visits, etc.....when I feel better <:(--
