5 months down and 11 more to go!
October 8, 2007

Hi Everyone! I hope you are all doing well and staying safe. For those of you that have your love deployed or gone on special assignments Bless you all! I am excited because I have just marked my 5 month off the calender and I only have 4 months until R&R. I am looking up and staying positive at this time. I have been traveling the last few months and seeing things that I have not seen before. Now that the kids are back in school I have some time to breath for a second without someone pulling on my shirt. I am looking forward to starting school in the next few weeks at Armstrong. Keeping myself busy doing something everyday seems to help the day go by and faster.
Rick is doing great over in the sand box and is equally excited about coming home for R&R too. All of our guys are safe and sound. Everyone of them in 2/3 AVN REG are doing a great job. I have to tell you ladies that we have a lot of jokers on our hands and the dollar store around here can not keep the water balloons in stock, laughing. Isn't it amazing how our guys can find simple humor out of the smallest things. I think it is great and just love to hear about the simple things in life. Sometimes I find myself running around without a minute to sit back and enjoy the simplest things in life. I am sure that goes for all of us.
Well, I just wanted to drop a little note updating everyone and I am sure that I will write in the next few weeks. Love to all and May GOD BLESS!!!
