My Fav,

I'm glad to be working with Andy, hey if I can't work with you then I guess it's the next best thing. Friday Joseph and I had to dig a trench and run some new wire because two buildings didn't have exterior wiring. Andy helped out too, we had him use the power washer to tunnel under a side walk, I sent you a photo of him pushing the wand thru. He is doing okay so far, today he is on his own. I still need to show him some stuff that he may need to know because he is getting the pager next friday.

Is your head still hurting? That must of been something. How many guys are in a truck like that? Where there any other trucks traveling with you? Have you traveled that road before? Did you hit your head or was it the noise or concusion of the IED going off that made your head start hurting?

I almost sent you some Aleve in your last box. I'm sending you your kindle this week do you want me to load anything on it? I'm going to charge it and register it with your amazon account. The charge should last a month if you turn the WiFi off and don't have to use the light. I was thinking the other day about reading the book that the movie "We were soldiers" was based on. Mostly because I like the movie and the books the movies are based on are usually better than the movie.

Shirley and I got about 24 feet of the new deck addition's floor framed yesturday, then she decides that we need to go ahead and extend the deck all the way to the end of the trailer which is another 9x12 feet. So I'm like okay. Might as well.

Take care, I love you and miss you and yes we need to go camping. Mom XOXOXOX
