New things

Well last week we found out where Dan is finally going to work. It has been a mess here and Dan was in one command while another was still paying for him so there was this whole mess as to where he was going...same place but different building and area of the world he's working with. Dan was getting pretty frustrated especially since we've been here since June and nobody did anything about it....or at least the correct way. We found out Monday, Dan will be on the watch. I've talked to some ladies who hate their husband being on the watch and some who don't mind it. I am thinking I'm going to be the one who doesn't mind it. He is on 4 days then off 4 days and then it stitches from working nights to days. Dan has done this switching days to night thing before and takes him one day to transition so basically we'll have more three day weekends...some two but seriously that's what we have now and some of those days are church so the girls and I are gone. I'm just happy Dan is relieved he's where he's suppose to be and not waisting anymore time on things he's learned that turned out he didn't need to learn. He's a little ticked though he's basically starting a new job when he's been here for almost 9 months. Oh well...that's just how life is sometimes.

I love going to the salon and getting my hair done. I am growing out my hair since Dan, Madison and Hannah have requested it so it was just to "tidy it up a bit" as they say here. I was suppose to get my hair colored too today but I wasn't thinking when I scheduled the appointment so next Thursday is the day. I'm thinking lighter blond with some copper in it? I don't know exactly what I'm going to do yet and I told Chelsie, the girl who has done my hair the past 4 times, to think of some ideas. I think she thinks I'm this crazy American who doesn't have TV and never knows what to do with her hair. She laughs every time I say, "just do whatever...you know better then me." I took Hannah to the coffee shop after I picked her up from school and I really couldn't tell my hair looked any different except the fact it's like perfectly blow dried and smells oh so good, but three girls who see me noticed! We will see if Dan does...which he probably will. He notices things most men don't. And I love the fact my hair is growing so fast lately...so exciting since Chelsie has suggested what I do when my hair gets out of the "flip" stage in the back since it's too short but not long enough. YAY! I'm so excited since I absolutely love the idea!
