Veterans Day

Today is Veterans Day. This is Michael's first veteran's day and unfortunately he is not here for us to celebrate it with him. Instead he is still at the place that made him a veteran. I must say I was disappointed when I went to church this morning and they were not doing anything for veteran's day. I knew today was going to be hard. It's another prominent day that reminds me more of Michael and the fact that he is not here with us.

Thankfully though he was able to call me. He is doing well. Says he may have to leave tomorrow already.It just depends they are having vehicle problems. He has earned a badge or some kinda patch because they saw combat. No one's hurt just a vehicle, thankfully. He says they probably won't go back home until like around the 20th. It was disappointed because they were giving out beer and he missed it because he was working on his vehicle. I told him it was ok he really didn't need it anyway because he hasn't had any for awhile. So he's ok. He can have some when he comes home on leave. But he received all his mail today and is going to have to give like half of it away if not more because he just doesn't really have any room for it all. Well I'm going to go for now because we are going to try and talk online later. YEAH!
