I am Natalia's daddy! My latest happenings as well as my lil' girls happenings will be posted here as I live them.

I like to read science fiction, fantasy as well as classics and comics. Always looking for recommendations. Like to play video games and board games. Love to watch old movies and shows, as I find them relaxing and entertaining. Last but not least. like to feed the birds and do some gardening.

Proud to be a US Navy Corpsman veteran and part of the Southwest Region Funeral Honor Guard.

Happy Thanksgiving

Days continue to move slow and the weather never changes. At home I know it is cold and snow has made its appearance as usual before Thanksgiving. However here I have 85 degree sunny days and though many envy that I do wish for some change. I continue to run and snorkel and always hoping to do more of each. Work has been good as my small team has gotten close and we work like one unit. We also welcome our HM1 to our team whom has had a rough time here but we all clicked and hope to work with her my whole time here. Not many HM1s get down and dirty and do the real job and she has no problems doing it. The longer I am here work dynamics change and attitudes change and I learn daily new things about the life at work. I already know I will miss those I work with even spending the short time we will spend.

I am back to my reading pace and will meet my goal of 50 books by years end and hope to increase it. Currently I am reading Farnham's Freehold by Robert Heinlein and Abyss Deep. Abyss Deep the sequel from Ian Douglas and I am very glad he got it written and published after I had a short email conversation with him about his first book and wanting to keep reading a sci-fi book about a corpsman. Lucky I have managed to find a decent selection of book here.

I wish you all a pleasant Thanksgiving and one spent with those whom you care and share life with. I continue to hope and pray to talk with Natalia as often as I can. Know I will be here standing duty defending freedom and democracy keeping America's threat secured (P.S. this is my funny sentence but sounds good. LOL).
