Cinnamon rolls, rain and other such goings on

Well here I am in Afghanistan going into my 4th month and it's been much of the same that it was the first month. Lots of sand and dirt EVERYWHERE... However. There was 1 day... this one day was different. I stepped outside and what did I see? Clouds! Spots of prior rain drops from the night before!


And more clouds with potential for rain! It was hot hot hot then one day and then someone flicked a switch and it's been cold at night and in the early morning and semi-warm during the day. Feels alot like AZ.

.
So lately my current love has been these semi-cinnamon rolls that they have in the DFAC for breakfast. I say semi cuz it's more like a donut thats shaped like a cinnamon roll. It's the little pleasures that are the best... Enough about the weather. Not much else has been going on... Had a little medical scare ( not new for me for those of you who know me). My heart rate went super high and stayed up there. Had to spend the night at the aid station hooked up to the heart monitor. Then had to go up to KAF for more medical tests. When I got there the Dr. was even more concerned and decided to run some more tests. Nothing was super scary abnormal so it was decided that I could stay in country provided that I stay on my seizure meds and don't do anything crazy. So that was that.
Only 2 more months and I get to go home on leave! Looks like Steve and I will drive my car out to AZ since trying to buy tickets last minute will be pretty expensive. I can only get a round about date when I'll be home..
More updates to come!


P.S. ... Thats my Ambulance... :)
