our own kind of cool :)

I don't know who reads this blog, so in case any of you don't know, I'll explain my husband's schedule a little bit. He is a pilot for a private cargo company that does on demand/emergency cargo shipping. So from Monday morning until Saturday morning John has to stay close enough to the airport that he can show up in uniform ready to fly within 20 minutes. He can get a call anytime; from 6AM to 11PM to 4AM to 5PM... anytime. That 5PM one is the reason I'm sitting here in Panera on a Friday night all alone :( Anyways! Because his schedule is so unpredictable, and he only flies about once or twice a week, I don't work so I can see and spend time with John.

All that said, we have a lot of time on our hands. A LOT! And there's only so much you can do when you can't travel too far away, or get involved in something that can't be stopped. So, as a result of all this information, we have taken up a new hobby-- one that my sister would describe only as LAME in the purest form.
...
Puzzles.
Yes! Our dining room table has been taken over by a 1,000 piece puzzle of flowers and grass.



And behind the puzzle are our two kayaks. Gotta love the places you find to put things in a small apartment. :)

In other news-- John and I totally had plans to use his weekend off doing fun things. We were going to have a date breakfast at Panera, and then go kayaking afterwards. But... seeing as how he won't be sleeping at all tonight, and may not even be sent home from Utah anytime soon... I may get to do all of that alone :( Stupid schedule. This is his second "weekend off" that got interrupted by a late Friday evening flight. I'm not bitter, I promise. I just needed to whine, and I try not to do it to John. Even though he reads this. I love your job John!
