As I was laying in bed today I made
a list of things I miss the most while I am here.
#1- Gary snuggling up to me at night(I found this old picture on the internet!)
The rest in no particular order:
Picking up the phone to call someone whenever I want
Sleeping until I want to get up
1% MilkWe have milk here but it is in boxes,
the kind you don't have to refrigerate
String cheese
Getting in the car and driving somewhere, whenever I want
Getting mail, even junk mail!
My sewing machine and all my fabric & quilting stuff
My queen size bed with fitted sheets When I got here there was bedding sitting on my bed
for me to make up. I asked where the fitted sheets were
and the women from the navy laughed
Q-tips (mine were "lost")
Eyeglass cleaner (also "lost")
Hearing Dayton & Daphne on the phone,
especially hearing Dayton say "Nana"
My jetted bath tub and laying in it for 20 minutes
Murray the Amazing Wonder Cat
The smell of Dayton & Daphne after a bath (Mustela)
Homemade chocolate chip cookies

We'll have to have a welcome home party for you and all wear fitted sheets. We could serve chocolate chip cookies and 1% milk!
You are doing a wonderful thing! Keep up the good work.
I'm so impressed that you're blogging while you're a million countries away! You're so talented.
I'm surprised you didn't add your laptop to the list of things you miss most!
You'll make it Kirsten! Just think that over a million people before you have slept on beds without fitted sheets!
Hi Kirsten,
We won't laugh about fitted sheets and will bake you and Gary a load of chocolate chip cookies, served with fresh milk. The Church News had a spread on the type of service mission you are on right now.
I, too, am impressed that you are blogging right now!
We miss you!
Laura, Jim, Joshua, and Jacob
