well.... the time is drawing near

I realize it has been a month since i last posted anything, but it is just hard for me to do so, i have been so busy with preparing for bootcamp. It will be 30 days to go this coming monday, the 21st. I have to go to a board meeting monday, i have to do my PRT Physical Readiness Test this week, and if everything goes great with my dad, we will be moving in with him and my step-mom next saturday. I have been sick the past three days now, along with my wife and son. I seem to have the worst of it. I havent really been able to sleep all night, i am in and out of sleep, waking up earlier than normal. I am finding myself worrying about bootcamp, am i ready? Will i be the best i can be, my family is counting on me, i cant fail! My dad has to have surgery, it may not be much to worry about, as it is a simple procedure, but i do worry. Well anyway, other than being sick, everything is fine. Little man has been his usual self, just a ball of fire, ready to get in trouble and being a stunt devil.

Hey there,

Everything will be alright. This is going to totally change your life and in the reality of things, bootcamp is only a glimpse in the rest of the spectrum. I remember when your dad went to bootcamp, and it seemed to be over in a flash.

You will be homesick, you will miss Ashley and the baby, but you are doing it for not only yourself, but for them too. THIS WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING... and CHANGE is what you need most right now.

Keep your chin up, and just remember... bootcamp is ONLY TEMPORARY.

Your dad is going to be fine. This is a very easy procedure, and the scope is the easiest part of all. He will be absolutely fine.

Take a deep breath... and hold on... It's going to be one hell of a ride... and we're all here with you.
