This evening I'm grateful for the Beely family, yet again! They always seem to come when I need them, and I love them for it. It really is going to be hard parting with them in July. But who knows, maybe Tom will actually get stationed in Hawaii and Ellie and I will already have friends! I am also grateful for Tom being able to call me this evening. It is really nice hearing his voice every now and then, but especially tonight. I've got a big party planned tomorrow, and have been feeling pretty frazzled all day. Hearing his voice definitely helped to calm me down. I don't know how it happened, but my living areas are finally clean, and I'm super grateful for that. I kept putting it off and putting it off, and I know it was affecting my mood. I just didn't have the energy to deal with something like that, on top of all the other emotions I was and still am feeling. I'm also grateful to have reacquainted with a dear friend. I've missed him horribly, and its so nice to be able to have Yahoo Instant messenger and web cams so that I can see him and his little girl! For now, that will be it. I have a book I would like to finish and its already 10:30 pm.

Good night.
