Welcome back! Hope you enjoyed the time with the husband and the Oklahoma heat! lol Yeah, my husband said it was pretty dumb too. I guess that's why they make you sign a form saying this does not take place of an annual physical. :P Wow, two weeks from today we'll be doing our thing. Ready?

Hey Whidbey - what's the time difference between here and where your husband's interview is? I'm assuming it will take place sometime tonight is that right?
