Appalling

waffle

Admittedly, I wore my waffle shirt to work today. I walked early this morning at Garden of the Gods and packed clothes to change ,but once I got to work I had no desire to change.




The Level II Shirt is long sleeved with thumb holes and features a mid-chest zipper that closes to convert to a mock turtleneck. The neck also features a throat protection flap. The base of the zipper is reinforced with nylon webbing and for additional insulation the back of the shirt features a contoured long tail. The drawers feature an elastic waistband and access fly.

real conversations

Mom, I know you can do this if you would just get your crying under control....

nostalgia

Everyday is filled with nostalgia. Why? I do not want to forget anything how I lived for 9 months of last year Because I am certain it will never happen again.

trouble, trouble, trouble

I am in the torn place where I am living between mantras
*Live your life without Regrets
*“Associate yourself with men of good quality, if you esteem your own reputation; for ‘tis better to be alone than in bad company.” - George Washington
*NEVER Give UP (NFQ)

So, there it is. I am involved in a project that I have discovered I want nothing to do with. I am surrounded by a few people I have no desire to spend my time with. And I am  desperately missing the people I used to spend time with.
Marcus Luttrell told us last week honestly... not to spend time doing things you do not enjoy because life is short.  Life is short. I know that.

But we are now formed as a team and I cannot quit or let them down.

September cannot come soon enough.

example

Sometimes strange things just happen to me…

Prime example.

Yesterday, I grabbed the mail and the only thing that belonged to me was the TAPS magazine.

In haste I flipped it open to the this…

 

Written by Dawn Millard. Mother of Jeremiah Millard.  I got freaked out a little.
But then realized it was a different Millard. I had a brief ever lasting encounter with - PFC Erol Milliard More info.

I saw PFC Milliard in Farah, attended his ramp ceremony and his ceremony in Shindand.

He died at the age of 18 on the 4^th of July 2013.

Two Milliard's giving their lives for our freedoms.

TAPS is such an amazing organization and I am looking forward to mentoring Memorial Day Weekend.
