Counting Down

Well here it's been too long since I last took time to write an update. In the meantime, I've managed to kill someone's pet cat during our trip to Sea World in San Antonio, avoided strep that has taken out three people in my class, missed the deadline to be eligible for early promotion (thanks to California), saved the recycling program here on base, learned a lot and enjoyed my time with the family too. Now I'm counting the days down until graduation -- 28, to be exact. Bren and the family will be going to Utah next month to visit family and attend Eric's graduation and Corrie's wedding. Sadly I'll miss them both. I will hopefully be in Utah the week after Corrie's wedding for about 2 weeks before heading off to the great SouthEast! Wish us luck, we may be looking at buying a house near Evans in Georgia.

With every day I learn something new about my job and about other opportunities available to enlisted folk. Unfortunately it means that I have to make decisions now about what I will be doing for the next 4-6 years, and set a course for only one of them. Three options sound incredible, it hurts to have to single only one out as my future.

We also had computer issues and spent over 200 with the Geek Squad in an attempt to fix them all. Most of the issues are gone, but we have a few still lingering. It is almost time for a new computer anyway...

Nate, excited to have you come down somewhat close to us. Let me know if you need any help or anything would love to help out maybe on a weekend or something if I can. Also, if you ever need any pc help let me know as I worked for Geek Squad for years and no they are a ripoff. Hope all is well.
