Day 50 ~ watching the Debate !

I'm almost finished watching the debate. In many ways, Clinton is better at this than Trump but I am still supporting Trump. Clinton should be in jail for her mishandling of classified material and I believe Trump will do things to make the economy grow. Plus, he is for strong military and secure borders. I'm not sure if polls can be trusted so even though they say Hilary will win, I guess we'll see.

See you tomorrow.

Day 49~ Desert storm anniversary

26 years ago today I was deployed with my unit to Saudi Arabia. It was desert storm!  The picture above is me delivering mail to people in my unit. It  was an honor to serve with all of those in my unit.

See you tomorrow.

Day 48 ~Eating Meatballs for a Good Cause

The first aide squad had a fundraiser today. Meatball subs for four dollars! Sounds like lunch to me. I get to eat and support a good cause.

See you tomorrow.

Day 47 ~ A Belated Birthday Message

So I went to my bank to conduct business on the ATM and this B-day message pops up...8 days after my birthday. I guess I hadn't been to the bank in a while.

See you tomorrow.

Day 46 ~ Going to Vespers!


Vespers is the evening service in the Eastern Orthodox Church and local parish has one every Saturday night. I used to go all the time when I was on day shift but now that I work in the evenings, it has been a while since I went to Vespers.  Well, I went to work yesterday afternoon, only to learn that I had the day off (Long story short-I was on the standby list to have off but I never got the email that it was approved) So, I happily went home and then went to Vespers.

It was great to be back. I love the Icons, the chanted Psalms, the incense and the sense of awe! To me, it is worship!

See you tomorrow.

Day 45 ~ At the Gas station


On November 1st, you can add 23 cents to this price and that's what we will be paying. It may be lower than New York and Pennsylvania but that's small consolation because everything else is so expensive. I'll remember in November.

See you tomorrow.

Day 44 ~ At the Movies


When I was a teenager, I used to go to the movies by myself often. It's not that I didn't have friends but I really enjoyed movies and didn't mind seeing them alone. Well today I went to see THE ACCOUNTENT with Ben Aflek (sp?) and I thought it was really good. Normally I see you movies with my wife but I don't think she would've liked this one.

See you tomorrow.
