MC's back in school and we're at 10 months to go!

Well, little Miss returned to school today after her 3 week spring break. She did not want to get up this morning but neither did her mom. Luckily the little Prince slept through the commotion of her leaving and I was able to get back to sleep for a bit. He's had a fun day playing outside and watching his new Thomas tapes and running around saying "toot, toot!". Now they're both watching Barney.
Well, as of tomorrow (well it's tomorrow where hubby is) there is 10 months to go. I know it's better than 12 months or 11 months to go but when we get into the single digit months to go (next month) maybe it won't seem so long. I am worried about him because he drives around and this weekend 8 military people (marines and army) died because of IED's. I think they're finally getting their act together inregards to forming a government. I think three years is enough and if they can't get it together but if we leave now it will be an even bigger mess.
Today there was a bad accident in which 4 people were killed on Kunia road (that's the road hubby would take into work all the time) by someone who (surprise!) turned into Schofield Barracks. A silver sedan (this car seems remarkably familiar). When I used to go up there all the time to work out I used to get passed at about the same time every time by this silver, red and white cars who were late for work. Now because someone couldn't roll their ass out of bed on time 4 people are dead. He didn't even stop-no surprise again. They hate the military out here and this isn't going to help matters much.
Well, they're whining that they have to go to the mainland to train for the July deployment because the environmental wackos have got the army off the big island. Which is a win for the anti-military crowd that abounds out here. On a positive note none of the news stations mentioned that hag sheehan's visit out here--just the HOnolulu Pravadtiser. They're her champions.
Well, till tomorrow then.
