2 days from flying to the States

I am crazy with anticipation right now. I am trying not to show it at work but all I can think of is going home. There was a sand storm and rain today so the visibility is low. That means we get people moving closer to our perimeter. Which means we fire off rounds. As they set up to send some in our way. So it was a loud night tonight! Nothing matters because I am headed home in 2 days. It will probably take 5 days to get there but who cares I am going home!! Wish me luck.

I forgot to mention The Buzz struck again. They gave me donations for The MudHouse. Thanks ladies!! The troops will love it. I kept the Chock Full of Nuts coffee for my personal stash though!!

Good luck to you Chris! Have a safe journey home. Thanks for having a blog-it gives me a little insight as to what's what over there. Know that your service to your country is greatly admired by us common folks and parents over here. Congratulations,and Happy Homecoming!

Hey there Chris - I just read a whole bunch of your posts here. I feel honored to know such a noble man as you. To think that my old bud from the school bus is out there representing our country...

Proud of you luv. And happy you are probably home right now, enjoying yourself and your loved ones. Take care friend.
