Hello everyone,
A quick post. Closer to re-deploying and finally seeing family and friends again! It's been a long road, but definitely manageable. Thank goodness for whatever communication we are afforded. I think back to my deployment to Bosnia and having no cell phone, no computers ( except for official military business ) or any method to contact family or friends except for snail mail. That was rough.
The 30 days doesn't refer so much to when I will be returning home, but more so when I hope to kick off the Video Blog....so we can finally meet in a fashion. I have been looking forward to making some videos for about 2 months now...and my mind races with such thoughts as 1. How should I start? 2. Should I copyright my videos? 3. Should I dis-able features such as the thumbs up or down .
I only know for sure...at least hope...that my videos will have no ads what so ever. Ads seem to clutter a video. I want you to be able to see me...and hear me, clearly. I also am looking forward to making videos in response to other candidates, if they use YouTube.... or will hope that you will forward my videos if appropriate and "on target".
As my friends and family dig out from last weeks snow storm, as it begins to melt in the rain, I wish everyone a happy and safe weekend!!

When Bill was in the Navy and deployed we would go for two months without mail. Sometimes I think how wonderful it is for the troops today because of the technology and being able to "talk" by phone, computer or video. Other times I worry that it might be a distraction to the troops when they have to worry about what is going on at home, etc. and still focus on the mission.
ReplyDeleteAt times it can be for sure ( a distraction ), but was relieved to hear from Ginger shortly before, during and after the record snows that beat up the Northwest. Pretty happy that I will be home soon and can step back from the keyboard and use my hands to embrace family and friends! Thanks again, Jane for a great comment!
