New bed stuff

Today the slow boat package finally made it. It was mailed while we were home on vacation. 2 months later and its here!!! T's new bedroom decor! It was for her b-day. a tad late lmao. I spent the last hr or so undoing these awful rods that housing had about the windows and screwing in her new curtain rods. Isnt it cute? I think so! T picked it out!

I made a ton more tarts today! A few fallish scents. Talking to Sherri, she had mentioned Amish Quilt. I forgot i even had the scent, so i broke it out and make tarts, then i found some yummy sugar cookie oil too. I had to make some of that. In a few min im going to make some smelly jelly stuff out of the Sugar cookie too.

While at the exchange today searching for jelly jars, i ask one of the workers, a Japanese worker, if they had any in stock. I must have been speaking a foreign language to her, cause she had to get back up, a fellow Japanese lady. So i ask the "new" lady if she new where i might find the jars. " for the baby?" I'm asked. Um no! I say, you know, to make jelly, you can stuff in them. I get the most dumb founded look. As I'm standing there i ask, is there anyone you can get that can understand what I'm asking? She goes and gets the manager, Thank goodness the woman is American lmao. She knows exactly what I'm talking about. They are out. oh well. So she took my name and number and will call when they come in. Simple enough. Then i head to the electronics dept to find some type of antenna for my radio. The wire one i have is just not long enough and we pick up static. I look around and of course no one is working there today, so i push the help button, 2 people appear out of no where, one looks at me, but keeps on going and the other walks over to the button and shuts it off so it stops announcing someone needs help. I let him know that i need the help and he says "ok" and walks away. HAHAHA i wait another 20 min and he returns to make a phone call, gets off looks at me and asks if i have a quick question. WTH? What if i had a long question? lol I ask what i need to and he doesn't help. He gets another person to help me, who proceeds to tell me i need a wire antenna, DUH! I know that, that's why I'm there, i was asking where i might find one. SO he takes me to the radios to show me what they look like. OMG now I'm just getting irritated. Are you serious? I know what i need, mine is too short, what can i use to make it longer, or in its place. So he just pulls the one off their radio and gives it to me. Lmao. Why do they hire so many Japanese nationals to help us when they cant understand us??????? Anyhow, i took my free antenna and got the hell out of there.

I haven't even bothered to try it. I'm afraid to see if it will work or not lol.

Miss J pants is passed out! I really think she is missing her daddy. She sees his car sitting out front and says "daddy". squats at the window and waits, but he doesn't come =(. This is just the beginning. I'm so sad to see what its going to be like in a few months when he doesn't come back.

I picked up the cutest book today too, Its called My Hero, Its letters Military kids have written about their moms and dads. I started reading it, and i have already cried. I know, I'm sappy! This little boy wrote about his dad, he was killed in action. I originally picked up the book because it had a Marine on the front. I know, silly. But i collect EVERYTHING Marine Corps! Its so neat though, kids are so honest!

I need to get working on my smelly jelly. Gotta get this concoction right!
