Only 97 Days and a "Wake Up"

There are only 98 days until hubby gets out of the joint!  Woot!  As they say in prison, "just 97 days and a wake up."

The weather in Northern VA sure is crazy lately.  Yesterday, it was 75 degrees and sunny.  Today, it's barely 60 degrees and overcast.  Blah!

I have a long, boring shift at work to get through today, but I have the day off tomorrow!  Yay!  My mom and her fiance are coming for dinner.  Mama is gonna make ham, green bean casserole, baked potatoes, and strawberry shortcake!

Hubs and I decided to cut our phone calls to every other day to save some money since I'll be moving in June.  I missed talking to him yesterday, but I'll be hearing from him today.  Hopefully, doing the phone calls this way will help the time go faster because I'll have something to get excited about and wait for every other day!

I packed my very first moving box last night.  Just a box of books, but I feel like this is really gonna happen.  Each evening until June 1, I'll pack a different box.  That gives me about 50 days give or take to get this house packed.  Tonight I'm gonna work on packing all of hubby's clothes, books, and papers.

What is everyone else up to this Saturday afternoon?  Getting ready for Easter festivities?

Good luck with packing. It must be exciting, moving into a new house and the important thing is your hubby will be getting out soon. Have a great day. I'm going through stuff and selling what I can

Maybe he won't have to do the "wake up." Mebbe they'll let him out at 12:30 in the morning on 'wake-up' day. They do that sometimes here in Michigan.

Today, I went to IKEA to get a new bedside table for use in SC since mine is too wide for the available space and has to be stored. I had not been inside the Atlanta IKEA ever. So it was a fun shopping experience.

My daughter and I need to sign my hubby's birthday cards. His birthday falls on Easter Sunday, this year. If the weather holds up, we hope to make it to Sea World or Fiesta Texas.
