April 2012

As the month comes to a close; I look back at was one of my most busiest months in recent months. During the middle of the month I took my semi-annual PT test with the Army. I scored a 250 with maxing my push-ups with 66 completed. My goal is to max all three events this October when I take my next test. I also set a goal to lose up to 20 pounds to help with my run time. Also during this time I was hand picked by one of my commanders to get a unit ready for deployment. job. This has me very busy because I still have my normal duties with my normal job. I hope next month goes smoothly and I am able to meet all the needs of my job and home life.

Until later.

First four months of 2012

   Well the first four months of 2012 are quickly coming to a close. I have seen my son grow into a young man serving his country. I hope he has a great time as I have doing the same. Traveled from Arizona to Georgia in two days. That was a great trip. Seen some of my family that I hadn't seen in years. Just wish I could have spent more time with them. Shared moments with my daughter as she got to see the mighty Mississippi river and other sights across our country. Followed in the footsteps of Martin Luther King Jr. as we drove across Alabama. Marked of a couple more Wal Marts in my goal to step into each of them.
    Found out that my Mom has brain cancer. After a couple of hard weeks we found out that she has two tumors and that they can be treated with radiation. I hope she has a few more years in her and that she can see me graduate college.
   I have been tasked to support a unit going overseas for deployment. I wish them God speed and a safe return to their families. Some are close friends and it is my honor to assist them in their deployment.

Well that pretty much sums up the last four months of the traveling Armadillo. Next time I won't take so long to post.
