Boot Camp for Skyelr!

 Howdy Y'all! 

So, Skyelr is in Coast Guard boot camp, and he's been there for two weeks.  Want some info?  Here you go!

1.  His address is:
 SR Baird, Skyelr
H-184 Healy Hall
USCG TRACEN Cape May
1 Munro Ave
Cape may, NJ 08204

2.  He can't get packages, just letters. 

3.  He graduates Jan 7, 2011.

So if you'd like to write, he'd love that I'm sure.  Me, I'm doing fine.  Keeping busy and not going crazy and all that.  Not spending a whole lot of time bloggin, as you can see, but here's one more little update of our adventures.

Remember remember the...4th...of November...

Aha!  I am sitting at the table with my trusty laptop waiting for water to boil for my breakfast and there it goes!!!

Breakfast update:  Hard-boiling eggs is not going so well.  I cracked the egg putting it in the pot and now I have boiled eggwhite froth soup.  Breakfast menu today:  one normal hard-boiled egg and one monster/alien egg.  I'll post pics. 


Normal egg (right) and his deformed brother, Monster/Alien egg
In other news, Skye and I are getting ready to ship him out to basic training in Cape May, New Jersey, and no, I still have no idea where on the map it is.  Somewhere cold on the other side of the country.  And yes, Skyelr will be gone for Thanksgiving and Christmas and no, he won't be able to come home for the holidays.  But honestly, we're so grateful he'll have a job we don't mind celebrating Christmas when he gets back in January.  Then we'll be off to somewhere, we don't know where yet.  Somewhere on the coast.  Hopefully somewhere warm on the coast.  

That's that!  I'm going to have my muddled up breakfast now!  Here's to learning slowly and painfully how to cook!
