Conversation Between athena55 and Iworecords

You will have a busy month a head of you. By the time it is wheels up you will be running on pure adrenaline. Get as much sleep as you can especially on the flight over. But if you are flying over Europe in the daylight and the clouds are light if you can get to a window, the Alps are fabulous from the air!! And Italy -- wonderful -- in Egypt you can see the Nile and delta. As for me -- grrr -- right now I am fighting right middle lobe pneumonia. Today is the first day since last Saturday that I am finally afebrile. Being at home is BORING!!!! Plus at work things are in an upheaval. The new Director of Nurses is a gem lololol In the 6 weeks she has been there she has gone thru 3 Assistant Director of Nurses -- one lasted all of 3 days lololol Actually last week I told my boss (the owner of the company) that if I didn't have the respect for him that I do I would have handed in my keys and left also. Well -- after sleeping on and off all day -- I'm going back to bed. Jo

Hey Ma'am:Roger that! In fact, I should be off to Fort Sam 21-25 SEPT for JECC training....Then off to Fort Bragg 11 OCT. Will be with the 28th CSH and a little birdy told me that the 28th will be split up between Iraq and Afghanistan.I do hope you are feeling okay. Have a safe, reflective and peaceful September 11threspectfully,' mary/athena

Figure you are that much closer to deployment since we last talked. Good luck -- keep your head down and savor every minute.

Hello Ma'am:
I am a fan of your writings to AN. Have you ever considered jotting down your experiences, memories, etc in a journal and possibly having it published? You are an important part of the history (past, present and future smile) of the ANC. Yeah, sounds corny I guess....
Hey I see that you are in NJ. Hi neighbor! My home of record is NYC, actually Staten Island....Now hanging with the finest in El Paso.
I have been overseas: Haiti, El Salvador and will be deployed down range (Iraq) in 2 months.
THANK YOU for your service and THANK YOU for all your posts.
HOOAH
respectfully,
