And The Countdown Continues...

Anyone who's read this blog a few times knows that I'm in the Army, and my unit is headed over to Iraq soon... I can't say when, or where we're going (it's not anyone's business, unless you want to come too... no? O.k.)...

Anyway, it's supposed to be sometime either the last week of this month, or the first week or so of Nov. that we're leaving... won't be back for a year, except for MAYBE two weeks of leave sometime in the middle... which we all pray we get... not everybody does... so, it's getting pretty sad around here... I keep realizing that I'll be gone for a long time, and I'll see things (or people) that I know I'm going to miss... and it get's really hard sometimes to plan ahead for that long a period of time, and truly understand what it means...

And I know I'm not the only person this is happening to, and my family isn't the only family to deal with it all, but... it's still very personal, and it's still us that has to deal with it...

Well, I didn't actually come on here to type about sad stuff, there's been too much of that happening around here... everything's finally fine here for the moment... at least, it seems that way... I know I was kinda vague about the stuff that went on, that's because it was personal, and not public business...

Anyway, this post isn't what I thought it was going to be today, so I'll just leave it here, and maybe have more to say later today, or sometime this weekend...

Peace...
