Sandy's Birthday

Well, the computer problems continue here in Iraq. It is the computer like pipeline for this area that is causing the problems. It makes it terribly difficult to do our jobs. The computer is a great thing but when we don't have it we feel like we are really handicapped but actually we aren't we just have to things differently and more efficiently. I am getting pretty good a powerpoint presentations. I like the way you can kind of freak people out with the flying, zooming or twirling photos or words. But it takes tons of time to make it look good. I would rather not be so impressive and use the extra time elsewhere but where am I gonna go here?

I've also gotten word that I may be staying alittle bit longer than what I told you. The USAF is telling me now my replacement will be getting here around the 26th of Sep and that I'll get to leave a few days after that...So standby for more changes. It's unusual these days to get so many changes to a troop movement but I am the exception. I'll just keep going and going till someone says go away.

Sandy's birthday is today and I hope she is having a great birthday weekend. I think she probably will be having fun with her family, which I think has gotten closer over the years. I like that. But I don't know how she got way older than me haha. She's been volunteering to help out with an animal rescue group that specializes in dogs. She takes them in for a day so that they get the exercise they need. She then will take them back to the rescue ...place? after she watches them for the day. Most of the time she'll get a new dog every time she volunteers. That way she doesn't get attached to a particular dog. Although she's getting attached to a dog named Patti. That is good, it keeps her busy. Melody I think is taking her out to lunch also sometime this week as well, I think that's what she said, sorry Melody if you didn't.

Well, I leaving work to go watch a movie..Herbie Fully Loaded rated G. Should be so much fun!! :( That is that.
