reading time: 2 minutesIt’s been a long time since I’ve blogged regularly. Other than a few posts here and there, it’s been seven years. Why so long? Honestly, life just got in the way. Something had to give for me, and blogging one of those things. But I’ve missed it. It was always […]
reading time: 4 minutesOne of the things the sucks the most about deployments, besides the obvious distance, is the lack of balance.

I also thank the families of all of those in uniform, because without the love and support from family, sometimes that selfless service would be impossible. And a special thank you to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice […]

reading time: 3 minutesThe Drama of Deployment Well, where do I start?! Corey was supposed to deploy for Afghanistan on December 29th, but it didn’t happen. The Friday before, he was in the emergency room with a massive, dehabilitating migraine and a fever of almost 103°. Mindful of his deployment, they pumped him […]
