Welcome...

I suppose I should welcome you to my blog. I am not sure how to invite everyone I know to read this, so if you know anyone who would like to know what is going on, invite them to view this.

I started this blog on the third, and this appears to be only the second posting. (I tried to post one other time, but the internet timed out prior to the message posting, and I lost it all…) Oh well, what do you do? I will continue to post at least once a week about the events in my life, but I plan to write some things to appease my writing desires, most of which will be opinions of mine. (I guess what I am trying to say is: READER BEWARE!!!) Seriously, though, I know what it is like to get the emails that you don’t have time to read and just want to get caught up to speed on what is going on with someone, so this should give you that opportunity.

I went to the hospital today for an appointment with a doctor about my recurring knee problems (which seem to have gotten worse since my arrival in Kuwait). The doctor seems to think I have rheumatoid arthritis, but she had blood work sent out to be sure. I sort of hope not, but I guess it could be worse, right? Really, I guess they could be sucking fluid out of there or fixing ligaments/tendons/knee caps… I will know in about three weeks, pray for the best!

It has been a busy week for me. We have sent so many convoys out, we don’t have anything to spare. I can’t go into specifics, but I am amazed how much we have accomplished the last few days. It makes me proud to have the “employees” I do…

Exciting opportunities have arisen through the FBI now. Apparently, they are preparing to make one of the biggest hiring pushes they ever have, so I am taking some time to prepare my resume and update my account with their website. Hopefully I can get a seat in the level 1 testing when I get home (not that I am not happy with Wal-Mart, I am just trying to fulfill that little-boy-wants-to-save-the-world urge!)

I don’t have much else to write about, we have spent so much time working on trucks, there is not a lot of time for much else. If you all have any questions, I will be happy to answer what I can. Later,
