The ride is over

I just linked up with my commander and he dropped a bombshell on me. And I do not mean a "Blond Bomb Shell, " either. I am being moved up to a Battalion level job. I have to hand my team off to someone else. I am not the happiest camper right now. It is not something I was expecting to be told. All I know is that they want me to do some analyst work on the intel that is being collected out here. Apparently they got this big idea that I would be good at something like that. Something about my ability to see things from a different perspective, I guess. Or maybe they just HATE me and want to torture me with a desk job. At least that is what I am envisioning. Not sure where I am going to be going or for that matter, for how long I will be doing this new job. But, I hate it already.

I was just getting used to the idea of having to move to this new location that we were going to. And now, POW, pack up and move again. "Don't ask where, 'cause I do not know." That was what I was told by the commander. Hell, if he does not know, what the hell is going on here. He is supposed to know where all of us are at all times. I think he knows I am not going to like it and he does not want to tell me until we get back to the rear.

Well, any way, I did plan on putting up some really positive info today so here is goes. Yesterday, we had a FANTABULOUS dinner. They were serving T-bone steaks and Scallops with mixed veggies and I made a Root Beer float with the ice cream and A&W Root Beer that was in the cooler. It was like a small piece of heaven had dropped into our laps. I guess that is Gods way of balancing out the week. A few small bad things a few small good things and then a HUGE bad thing. I just hope that there is, somewhere in the very near future, a HUGE good thing to level it out. LOL

I do not know if I am going to have access to the web where I am going to be, so yet again, I will do the best that I can. I am also loosing the Sat Phones in this move, so I do not know if or when I will be able to call home again. Please bear with me back home. I will do what I can to get some phone time.
