I haven't posted on my own website! for quite a while, so a lot has happened. I should start with where I am right now... five months into a year-long deployment to Iraq. I got word I was leaving the last time I posted here, and I spent a lot of time training and a month in Mississippi before getting here in August. I was able to attend CSTS in Charlotte before leaving, collected addresses so I could write letters--and Christmas cards. Yes, letters are coming...
I missed Dragon*Con this year, but I did make the Browncoat Ball. What you get for planning your R&R leave for October... :) I had a great time, Charlotte was a wonderful host. The photos are still in my camera--along with many other ones. Hopefully I'll get them on my computer before I come back home...
I appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers--and boxes of goodies. By the way, I'll make a plug for Soldiers' Angels, a great organization that pairs soldiers up with "angels," who write letters and send boxes to their adopted soldier. There are other organizations like Soldiers' Angels--Operation Gratitude, etc.--but I know Soldiers' Angels the best. If you want to donate to a worthy cause, donate to one of these organizations, or even the USO or Red Cross. They will appreciate anything and everything. Find them on facebook or in the Links here.
Well, that's all for now. Before I go I'll say to follow the Roundcon link on the Links here. It's coming up soon--January I believe--and it's a local event. So go to their website and get the details--and support them with your presence.
So bye from here in the big sandbox and stay shiny!
