Long days...

So it has been almost two weeks since John left...time is definitely not flying by (for me anyways)! John says that he's staying busy with training and keeping up with all his soldiers. Seems like they are spending a lot of time on the range lately - which means LONG days, HOT sun, and no cell service! But, I guess you can't have too much practice! Recently their days have been much longer due to issues with the buses they are being transported on...apparently none of the drivers speak/understand english which has led to buses showing up hours late and frequently getting lost. I think that aspect is really starting to irritate them all! But, on a happier note...the units 4 day pass (October 19-22) has been officially approved!! Which means I get to go see John in less then a month!! I'm SOOOOO excited =) Hope you all are doing well, please continue to keep John and his unit in your prayers!
