I hit snooze a couple of times before ‘The Alarm’ went off. This alarm I couldn’t ignore. This was my first rocket attack in the morning. Seriously? I am not a morning person and sticking me in a confined space with someone who is loudly humming to a Spice Girls song on her iPod is not a good idea. Next time, I’m bringing my own iPod into the bunker. I’ll keep it in my jacket pocket with my socks. : )
I have been asked quite a bit if I had been outside the wire yet. The answer is no. I do hope to get out but will only be allowed if it is Mission Critical. It isn’t safe. Several people have died from the rocket attacks on our base since I have been here. This is definitely not a sight-seeing trip.
Hi Christine, I continue to read your BLOG and wish I could be experiencing what you are experiencing being in Afghanistan. Wow it sounds like there is never a single day that goes by that is just an ordinary day which is my kind of life.
ReplyDeleteGail and I have tried to catch you on Skype, but to date we have not found you online. We might not have the right Skype address.
Hey I was wondering where do all the supplies like food and water come from? Is it flown in or what.
In any event please be safe and bring home a lot of pictures so I can see more.
Your BLOG and Mikes Blog are great and will provide the kids someday a look back a what great parents they have!
Best regards,
Steve & Gail
