sounds like you're doing good for yourself! glad to hear you're not going back out there. my buddy's talking about going out to afganistan now

Hope your buddy makes it through fine. Yeah, I'm doin pretty well. I didn't get to check your page yet, but I'll get to it. Hopefully I'll find you just as well. Take care.

I didn't put this in my journal because I'm test stressing right now, but I thought I'd share it with you since you mentioned the guys going back.

Since he's moved units the hubby is either always home when the kids leave for school or when they come home from school. Well, Monday he had two ranges so he wasn't home for either. Brandon knows that that Cadence's daddy left and that when her's left last time so did his. So when hubby wasn't there either time he threw himself on the floor and started crying "Bring my daddy back."

I should probably copy this and put in in my journal so I have the memory.

Kids are really smart. It doesn't suprise me that Brandon made the correlation. Hopefully you were able to explain to him that Nestor isn't goin anywhere.

Test stressing? That really sucks. Good luck with all of them!

Yes, we were able to explain it. Hubby's had a four day and Brandon looked at him Friday and said, "Would you just go to work?"

Yeah, this next question is more of a regurgetate information paper so I think it'll be a little less stressful.

Medically disabled??

I'm really glad that things are working out for you.

Yeah. I've been diagnosed with PTSD, bilateral ulner neuropathy and bilateral carpal tunnel. Not really too big of a deal as far as I'm concerned, but it's big enough for Uncle Sam to pay for my college. :-)

Thanks hun. I'm lookin forward to catching up with ya soon.

Well dink, nice to have ya back! I do hope you'll be sticking around.

That's awesome about the tuition!! That's such good news for you. I'm also happy to hear about you and Hilary (that's her name right?) - congrats. :]

DON'T BE A STRANGER. :D

sweetsouldier March 23 2007, 04:44:55 UTC

Yeah, I'm definately gonna try and stick around now. Maybe not immediately, but once I quit my one job.

Hey, YOU'RE the one who stopped calling me. :-P

Congrats on the VA! It amazes me how people manage to pay for tertiary education in the States, it's really beyond me. If the NSW Govt here didn't have a HECS (Higher Education Contribution Scheme - where the govt pays for your schooling, then you pay it back when you earn over a certain amount), I'd have had no way to get my degree.

I should extend that congrats to your relationship and your awesome interview skills, haha.

Thanks a lot. I know. US education costs are incredible. Then the gov't wonders why no one wants to go to school here.
