So, we finally saw Brian last night! He was home a bit before we all went to bed, and then he had to work today. Probably tomorrow too. Maybe the next day. After a deployment, they check in their gear, fill out paperwork, and that kind of thing, so they have to work for a [...]
Great News! Brian is home! Well, he’s not home *yet,* but he is in town and called from the airport late last night. He is supposed to be coming home this evening sometime, he wasn’t sure. Most likely he’ll have to work a couple of days, and then we will get to see him all [...]

Sorry I have been MIA a little bit! I have just been so busy, doing what I don’t know, but there ya have it. Appointments and things. Computer broke. Internet broke. All are now fixed, thanks to my ingenuity.
Brian is doing well. I have talked to him a couple more times. Apparently Grace and I [...]
