First of all, let me apologize for the pictureless post. Hopefully we will be getting a camera eventually (ours broke!)....so for the time being it's a little bland! I just wanted to give a shout out to my amazing hubby! For those of you who don't know (I'm sure there are a whole 3 people who read my blog ;) ) Daryl is living in Mesa going to school, we are renting our home in St. Johns and I am living with the parental units in Eagar. I spent the last week in the valley with him and we had so much fun! However, when he would go to school and I would be left at the apartment I would sit and wonder...."how does he survive down here"? We are on a very tight budget and so he is living off of a very limited grocery supply along with a care package that his mom and sister made for him with many canned and boxed goods. I opened his fridge and this is what I found: *milk *eggs *cheese *jelly *bbq sauce *mayo *ketchup *bread. Yikes....I like food way too much and I would die! Thankfully, we went to my friend MaryAnn's house and had chicken enchiladas and she sent us home with the leftovers (she was leaving for Egypt the next day!) Also, he has no internet, no cable/satellite....nothing. What does he do? He listens to the radio! He watches an occasional redbox movie. Here's the biggest thing......he doesn't complain EVER. He always tells me he is so grateful that he can go to the grocery store once a week and spend $20 because not everyone is able to do that. Wow... No wonder he is my hero!
