2. I am so grateful for the friends I've made here. I used to have friends in Alaska, but everyone PCS-ed on outta there before we did. When we left, the only people I had to say goodbye to were my co-workers and that was hard enough. I can imagine it's going to be difficult when friends start moving out of Ft. Leonard-Wood. Since it's mostly a training base, some are only here for a few months. I am so thankful for this opportunity to connect with other wives though. It's been a breath of fresh air. Especially since we can connect while sitting at the pool.
This has been happening a lot lately, and it makes me so happy.
3. Speaking of wonderful new friends...one of them taught me how to cook bacon in the microwave. (Did you know about this? Seriously, was I the only one who didn't know?)
Lay your bacon in a glass pie plate lined with paper towels.
Cook on high for 1 minute at a time until it reaches desired doneness. This was 4 minutes. Check it in between minutes. I should've probably stopped at 3:30.
And...that's it. Eat your bacon.
4. I forgot to add a group to my music I don't really like post: Sugarland. Holy bleeding ears.
5. And, finally, still looking for something to do when school starts.
The latest job application that I'm 1/3 of the way through. And a pen from Alaska.
Sharing at 5 on Friday and High 5 for Friday
