Two Months Down!!!!!

June 1, 2008 - Balad, Iraq

Let me start this blog by thanking Lindsey and Teresa for the two boxes of goodies I received last week. Think I’m good to go on disinfectant wipes now, so thank you! I’d also like to thank Melissa for her package, the zone bars are a nice afternoon snack. I have the best friends/family so thank you all for the care packages and emails. It’s nice to receive them and I know you’ve gone out of your way to send me these so I truly do appreciate it.

 

I’d also like to wish my Mom and stepdad a Happy 1st Wedding Anniversary. Hard to believe one year has already come and gone since you tied the knot. Hopefully my card arrives one of these days!

 

Kelly has left us here and on his way back home to Arizona. I’m really going to miss him as he sure did make the day go by quickly with all of his witty jokes. Johnny has arrived and begun his time in the lovely desert. The way things were setup over here the transition is pretty smooth for any new person coming to the desert.

 

I know Kelly isn’t here but he's promised to keep his infamous jokes coming, so here you go…………..

 

A mushroom walks into a bar and the bartender says, “We don’t serve your kind here.” The mushroom says, “Why not I’m a fungi!”

 

Man I’m really going to miss his jokes!!!!!

 

I hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day weekend! Not much has gone on over here lately, but as always I promise to keep you updated. I hope everyone is doing well and until next time take care and stay safe.

Is that third picture your new roommate? Looks like you'd be at home in Texas with your pickup & the pool is nicer than Galveston beach.
