neglect

Poor little neglected blog... Doesn't get a whole lot of lovin' these days. I'm finding it a little challenging to be writing a blog about "the egberts" when 3/4 of "the egberts" live 10 hours away, and my life consists of an hour drive to work 9 hours at work and an hour home.
Well good news Chris finished the basement- talented that boy is- from the few little pictures he sent everything looks really good. Can't wait to get out there next week to help organize and make it nice!
I know you can really tell the superb-ness from this shot... but it was all I really had...


Also- for the 3 of you that look at our little neglected blog- thank you. I'm not always the best at getting around to everyone's and posting comments and staying caught up with everyone.
But I know you are there- looking, judging...... Kristina.....

55 days

I must admit.. Anxiety has started to get the best of me a little as I printed out the boarding passes for our cruise That is coming in a short 55 days. Those of you who may not have read back in the archives of our lovely blog may have missed our cruise we went on last November.
Even if you missed it here, I'm sure you heard about it on the news, but if you need a refresher here is a story from USA today and some little video Chris took on his phone




sure miss them

Chris has been gone now for 2 months... its still very strange that our only contact is on the phone. Chris HATES talking on the phone but has definitely made additional effort because that is pretty much our only contact we get in a day sometimes only a few minutes. It feels so quiet at my parents house without the dilly's too. When they were here I was able to bring them to work with me so its a little quiet there too. I found some pictures of the dilly-capades at work on my phone today they are pretty funny....

Nico didn't particularly like coming to work, it was confusing for her. But whenever the chew sticks came our she was fine. I was only able to bring her a few times to work before her and Chris moved.

This was her expression at me most of the time...


She hated being out in the open where people could see her so she would always hide under my desk. Luckily its a fairly large desk so I still had some feet space.

Zira also liked hiding under the desk. She would go under the section where the drawers were where there was no space and sit in my "paper to be shredded box"

Zira came with me to work everyday after Chris and Nico left and she did such a good job. She only was bad when the Fed Ex truck pulled in the parking lot- she would bark and go crazy and run up to the front door to wait for them to come in, once they came in she loved them. Something about the truck...


Zira ALWAYS wanted to sit in my lap. Sometimes while I was making phone calls I would let her sit in my lap. It was SO uncomfortable for both of us but she was just happy to be in my lap.




Sure do miss those Dillys. Can't wait to visit for my birthday to see them and Chris!
