Officers and Chiefs Dinner

I was invited by my husband to join the chiefs and officers dinner tonight. Of course I love going out, plus we are going to a dinner. That means a lot of food and you know one of my favorite thing in the world is eating. Who doesn't want to eat? Thats a part of our lives. Everybody eats.

Anyway, we got there early. The dinner doesn't have to start until 6:30 pm. But my husband and I leave the house early becuase we wanted to stop by the vitamin shoppe. But then the traffic was so bad that its hard for us to get into the place, so we decided to just go ahead and go to the hotel where the dinner will take place.

I thought it was just a dinner, but they're also giving an award , the " Sailor of the Year" award. And besides recognizing the sailor of the year winner, they also introduce the new command ombudsmen. They have a new commanding officer. Since this battalion is big and they are scattered , each company have their own ombudsman. This must be nice to have that many. The new ombudsmen received a coin ( Navy Tradition ) from the captain. I never thought I could be given a another coin too . I was actually one of the ombudsmen when their battalion was being deployed in the Middle East in 2006- 2007. That was not easy though. I am just so thankful that were no major problems while they were away. But they're back now. And I am so thankful to the Lord for keeping them safe while they are in the Middle East.

Good morning , good morning, good morning

Its morning again , thank God for another day, a very beautiful saturday. As usual I got up late this morning. Every saturday , I always get up late. I did not went to bed until 3 am last night. I woke up around 8 am but then fall back to sleep. I didn't notice when my husband got up and leave the house. But anyway, I just wanted to thank the Lord for giving me another day to live. Everyday is a new day, a new life and a new beginning. I was wondering if people think that what if I wont be able to wake up the next day? Every morning when I get up , I always thank and praise God for the new day He has brought me. " The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, they are new every morning, great is His faithfulness " .
