Leave wrangling

OK, so Bradley found out when he's getting leave (the end of July to beginning of August) and now I'm trying really hard to get leave and at the time I want. I'm trying the old fashioned way, but I think it's about down to bribery. The time I want is full so I have to get someone to switch with me. I think Browns tickets might be involved... :-) It's worth it though.

Other than that things have been going pretty well. Please pray for my friend Teresa though (not the one you know mom.) She just found out last night that her 3 year old nephew drowned in his swimming pool on Saturday night. Please keep their family in your prayers, along with my more trivial leave issue.

Yesterday was my day off and I went to the traditional service last night at seven and ran into teresa. She's a friend of mine from PDT at camp bullis in Feb/Mar. I'm gonna look into extending with her group when i'm done here. about 30 of the 50 medics in my PDT class will be with her running a Troop Medical Clinic up in Balad, Iraq. It would be nice to get to do medic things, and to get to do them with a bunch of people I already know would be really nice. Anyway, just one more thing that's in the works. I'm glad i ran into teresa last night though because I got to be there for her with her family thing.

Well, if i think of something later or i find out what's going on with leave I'll write more. until then...
