Anticipation

The promotion to Msgt list comes out this week.  This is Mr. Lovebug's first year testing for it so he is skeptical that he made the list.  I'd like to think positively.  This promotion would be a good step in his career and he could ride that out until retirement.  If he doesn't make it, he could test again next year but he risks hitting high year tenure.

All of these things are important when making decisions about retirement, the future and financial planning.  I'll be on pins and needles until the list comes out.  I am proud of him, no matter what.  He is diligent, loyal and focused.

Picnic with my lovebugs

Yesterday we took a day trip to the Guadalupe River; we had a picnic lunch.  It was a lovely day of exploring.  I snapped a few pictures but as many as I usually do.  It was nice to get out and about!
