Lists
April 29, 2009 | 2 Comments
I have never really done a “40 before 40″ or any other kind of list post so on the eve of the eve of the 41st anniversary of my birth, I’m going to give you a few. I have some things I want to write down. A bit of goal setting, a bit of “publishing”, [...]

I really suck at titles for blog posts, right?

So what’s new? We are still waiting for orders. Nice.
Friday’s my birthday and the annual case of pissed off has come early. Nice.
I’m lonesome, bored and grumpy. In fact I am probably lonesome because I’ve declared myself mostly unfit for human consumption. Last week, we went to get Texas Drivers’ licenses (yup, I’m fixin’ to [...]

Pissed off… It’s not just for breakfast anymore.

The mood here in Juarez del Norte is thick. Thick with stress, thick with unexpressed anger, thick with everything that accents the sucky parts of Army life. It’s assignment time (well, two to four months ago was assignment time). There are those with unwelcome assignments, impending deployments, etc. There are those for whom the Army [...]

1 Bag, Five Dinners Update
April 20, 2009 | Comments Off
I know you want to know, right? Here’s the deal: Everything was fine. The family was willing to eat everything and did. The macaroni and cheese was a big hit with the boys. I’d liken it to a chain restaurant and most of you know how I feel about those. I’d recommend it for cooks [...]

Updates – Because I Know You Want to Know…
April 15, 2009 | Comments Off
A few weeks ago, Becca blogged about the atmosphere here in HP, TX. And she’s 100% correct. People are tired. Some of me us consider the past 8 months a total waste of time, are tired of hearing complaints about it and would like to thank the Army for screwing with them on this level [...]

Saving the Planet – One Dustbunny at a Time

Lately I’ve been trying to become more aware of my “footprint” and be more respectful of the environment. Recycling is hard but I’m working on it (with three people that just toss things and can’t master the “sort” concept I have to choose my battles, right?). I’ve been trying to reuse things and [...]

Seasons’ Greetings

So here we are in the post-Christmas haze. Two hour naps are getting old and so are cranky children. Christmas morning was kind of awesome with the Khan around but after about noon, everyone was ready to move on to the next something. Whatever that was.
I’m working on our 12 Days of [...]

Day -6

The Army has this way of numbering training days that I find amusing. Sarge and I get to go to some Army training (yes, both of us) next week. We fly Sunday which, if there is training would be considered Day 1 (I think it’s zero day if there’s inprocessing only). So [...]
