The Tally

3 1/2 weeks into the deployment and here’s the tally…

2 colds
1 ear infection
1 set of stitches
2 calls to the Poison Control Line (note, I have never had to make any for Elizabeth…Ben’s tally is two calls before 10 months!!)
1 stomach bug (that I pray doesn’t pass to us, increasing the total to 3)

1 broken weed eater (engine blown)
1 broken garage door
1 broken flat-screen TV (it looks like you’re watching through night-vision goggles, appropriately enough! LOL)
3 of my favorite glasses are broken
2 broken dessert plates
2 broken cereal bowls
1 broken glass mixing bowl
1 broken Pyrex dish

A gazillion diet cokes

1 mom who is losing her mind!! LOL
