I hope this finds you well and happy....as well and happy as I am. No, not happy that i'm here and that i'm away from my family BUT, happy to be married to the love of my life...my best friend, the mother of my two boys and ALSO to be surrounded by good friends here. Not only that....we have our ship date to Afghanistan!!! You may be asking WHY we are happy to have our ship date??? well, it's because now there is a light at the end of the tunnel to end our misery here at Camp Atterbury, Indiana. For those that have not ever had the pleasure to visit Indiana...it sucks. It's truly the freakin arm pit of the U.S. This place has left such a bad taste in all of our mouths that we are just ready to get out of here. Not only that, it'll be nice to finally get our feet into the sand box and start some combat missions. The sooner we get over there...the sooner we get back.
Not alot going on here today. Had a day off, AGAIN and went to the mall with some of the guys. Spent some time at Barnes and Nobles and did one of my favorite things....sat in a QUITE place with a venti cafe mocha and read a book and looked through some snow skiing magazines. Looking forward to taking a ski trip with Jill, Darian and Brady. Anxious to get Brady's little piggy's in the snow. I've already missed a ton of Brady's "Firsts" and will miss more over the next year but I REALLY want to be there when he experiences snow for the first time.
It's a quiet week here, Thursday and Friday are going to be spent at the rifle and pistol range and tomorrow's temp is supposed to drop into the low 20's with a chance of snow. Yeah for me!!! :-(.
Anyways, I have to run. Be safe, chin up my friends and I will talk to you soon.
Peace Out!!
-Jimmy
