I'm Back and it's good to be home

So I haven't posted in a long while, and I have no excuses for it, and I'm not going to give you one other then I've been lazy and haven't felt like doing it! So there now you have it. I have just gotten back from a long work trip to Florida. I was there for about 6 weeks training the Florida National Guard in some military equipment. I had so many problems there that it isn't even funny. Every thing from equipment braking down or not working to Staffing problems and people trying to but in and take over the class from me, on and on and on..... But I did the best I could do with what I had to work with and got the job done. I did take some time and did some fun things like I went to a Nascar race at the Daytona speed way and had a blast. It is so cool to see the car in real life and hear them just be a part of the hole Nascar experience. It is so much different being there then it is watching it on TV. It was a surreal experience. I went down to Orlando one day and spent the hole day at Universal studios theme park. It was fun and I had a good time. I got to see some great movies dunning my stay, like the Dark Knight, and Iron man.

It's hard not to get home sick after a while of being away from your family, I really try ed to work with Trisha on communicating more while I'm gone. It has been a problem in the past that she wont want to talk to me when I call her, it would irritate the hell out of me when she would do that. Now granted I would call her every day and not just to talk but more to just hear her voice and see how she was doing. But this time I backed off a little and let her call me. I would still call her if I hadn't heard from her for a couple of days. I guess it went OK?

I had some time to think about all the days I had been away from Trisha sense we first got together 11 years ago and came up with about 2 years of separation. I got to thinking to myself that that was way to long to be apart. Hopefully I will not have to go on any more of these long trips, but you never know.

I got home last Thursday early in the mooring and Trisha picked me up at the Airport she had brought the Dogs with her and they were excited to see me as I was to see them. We got home and I unpacked my closhes and sat and talk with Trisha for a while before going to bed and taking a short nap sense we had both been up all night. It was a good home coming no fighting or arguing for a change. I never know what I'll get when I get home some time it can be a little ugly but this time it was great we where both vary happy to see each other and truly did miss each other. We spent all of the weekend together and had a great time. We went to our friend house for dinner on Saturday and got hair cut's and played with there two Little girl's. It felt really good to home at last.

On another note my in laws are coming into town this week for a visit. It should be a great time, we always have fun when Trisha Mom and Dad, and Aunts and Uncles come in for a visit. This will be for the most of them the first time to see our new place. Trisha has some fun thing planed for everyone and I will hopefully be taking all who are interested in going, up to the shooting range behind Beale Air Force base for a morning of shooting, Trisha's uncle Stu, and cousin Coley both sound interested in it so will see.

Well I should get back to work, hope to see y'all soon.
