real estate: "Iraq, The Story Unfolds" -- Counting Down the Days
- 07/29/09 11:43 PM
Which number do you like better; 39 or 130? Well I am definatley looking forward to 39 which is how long until I get to go on leave. I get a full 15 days to spend at home, plus whatever time it takes for travel. Looking at about 20 days total. However I would definatly say that 130 would be my magic number and that is the "Estimated" amount of days I have until I get to go home. Sorry I cannot say, and sadly I dont really even know when that magic day is. However, we have been told that … (11 comments)

real estate: "Iraq, The Story Unfolds" -- Bad News for the Dog Lovers
- 06/12/09 03:18 AM
Well for those of you that have been following my posts I have some bad news. It does not look like I will be able to bring Abbie home. We have had problems getting other soldiers to step up to helping out with her. Alot of the soldiers here feel that she is an un-necessary responsibliity. Most of them have been pointing the finger saying that (I) being the one that is going to take her home, should have 100% of the responsibilty of taking care of her. I understand what they are saying, if I was not taking her home … (6 comments)
real estate: "Iraq - The Story Unfolds" -- Beat the Heat
- 06/04/09 12:04 AM
Well here is a blog by popular demand. This one should be short and sweet. I have had several people ask me about the heat in Iraq, the first thing I want to say is that it is ******* HOT!!!! Here's the sad part, its only June 4th. When I got here in March it was around 85 during the day time and down in the 40's and 50's at night. Now as we get closer and closer to the peak months it is already darn near un-bearable. Last week we had a high of 122. I hear that the peak … (22 comments)

Well, after I wrote that post last night I thought of another good one . . to be honest I am surprised I did not think of it earlier. It is about my new friend, Abbie. Abbie is a eight-nine month old part lab, part . . .something dog that we are trying to rescue. First off I need to say that we are not allowed to have pets here, or mascots as the army calls them, so for purposes of saving her life I will be referring to her as our "force protection dog". Anyway here is her story. The … (21 comments)
