Pardon the slack, not much has really gone on. Chad is on operations duty for his deployment. He works 12 hour days 6 days a week...this pretty much blows because it ruins any chance of good conversation and decent hours.
Currently I stay up until 11 at night so we can talk before Chad heads to work and I go to sleep. Chad generally calls before he goes to bed, around 3PM. Since I am at work I really only get to tell him goodnight. I'm trying to get my body use to that no sleep thing like when I was in college. I have been spoiled with 10PM bedtimes over the last 3 years. Eventually it will feel normal, but as for this last week, I went through a case of redbull.
Chad will get R&R, totally stoked about this! We decided since we had been planing to go to Europe this year anyway, instead of him coming home, I am just meeting him in Europe! I am pretty excited about this.
Well, not much news over here, maybe Chad can share more later. :)

Okay, sorry I have been a little late as to posting a blog or commenting, but I have learned for now that I can only comment because all the "log in and home" buttons at the top are written in arabic and I don't know which one "log in" is.
ReplyDeleteMy lovely little angel (Jenny) is the best thing that I have going for me as far as this deployment is concerned. Being an IRR soldier is very hard because you don't know any of the people that you are assigned to, and you most likely will not ever be in the unit afterwards. However, I have made some friends that are worth keeping in touch with in the future, but other people are rather, annoying, conceited and DUMB! Oh well, just like anything else that is new, there is always something you don't like.
Like my wife, I too am stoked about a vacation in Europe and will finally get to meet the other half of the family in the fall!
