I haven't made a picture post in a while, so I've taken a few this week with the intent of sharing them with you and with Sean. So, pictures first, words after.
This is a beer my neighbor, Bryan, brought over for me. Him and his girl had gotten a 6-pack of these and just didn't like them at all. He knows I love coffee, and I love beer.. so here it is. I'll admit, it was strange at first.. but after the first one, I really started to enjoy the mix of flavors.
Oh, Elliott. He looks so intense here, but I think he was watching the camera strap as it was dangling. He's getting bigger everyday, my little guy.
This is most of the stuff I got for him at HEB over the weekend. Lots of snacks and drink powders, and instant coffee. I knew he wanted the coffee. He asked me for some specifically, but little did he know that I'd already gotten him some. I pride myself in knowing my husband well.
Well, I uploaded fewer pictures than I thought I would. But you get the gist.
Today went swimmingly for me. It's been one of the best days I've had since Sean left. I walked to Star Co. and talked to my boss. Not only is he going to put me back on the schedule, but he's asked me to create my own 'ideal' schedule and he'll do everything he can to give me exactly what I ask for! I guess he really wanted me to come back, to offer me that kind of choice.
After we worked that out, I hung out there for a couple hours. I drank some coffee and worked on my scarf. It was really refreshing, being outside, out of the house, and doing something productive. I hope to continue to motivate myself like I did today.
After said knitting, I made my way to the post office. 8 lbs of goodies, all in one flat-rate box. I only spent $12.50 sending it out! I came home just in time for the best thunderstorm I've seen in ages. All in all, today has been beautiful. I only expect it to get better, or at least plateau here.

Good productive day, but honey don't stress about the sad and non-productive days! You are not failing anybody if you shut down for a day and focus on you. Sean would understand that. Quinten knows somedays I miss him so much that I look at pics of us together, cuddle our puppy, wear his Army shirts and kiss his Dogtags...Shanna
