Just a few more weary hours...

Today, I had to go see the recruiter ONE MORE TIME to go over my shipping paperwork. And, to take the APFT. Good old Army Physical Fitness Test. Although I hadn't planned on taking it, I did go ahead and take shorts. Good thing, right? So I took the test and passed it. Now, i get to wait till tomorrow morning, then BACK to the recruiter's and hop the shuttle to St. Louis. But for now, I'm going to spend it with my family, enjoying time we have together, before I go to school.

A Few More Days...

Well, in a few more days, I am off to beautiful Ft. Benning, GA! I'm really looking forward to the changes, and the challenges ahead. The PT, the training, and the change of venue for me and my family. I still don't know where I'm going to end up in the long run, but we plan on making the most of it. Can't wait to bring you all on the journey!

A Whole New Life!

Evening, and welcome to My Army Life! While I am not new to the Army, I am new to the active duty lifestyle. And, I'm not even that far yet. Like I said before, I'm not new to the Army. I have been in the National Guard for eight years, and have one tour of Iraq. My decision has been majorly influenced by the need to provide for my family. With a wife and three kids, they are always on the forefront of my mind. I can't wait to share our strories and struggles with you.
