Las Cruces, NM, at 1700 - Monday
Kaesen and I woke up extra early today, around 0400, so that we could drive Kimberly from Las Cruces to El Paso. She flew north to Devils Lake to pickup our Ford Edge from one of our two storage units and also a few things out of our household goods. Kaesen and I left Kimberly at the drop-off location and immediately drove to IHOP for breakfast nearby in El Paso. We later drove back west on I-10 toward Las Cruces and spent more than an hour sleeping in my truck, with Kaesen laying on my chest in a snuggle position, and a little while longer waiting for the outlet stores to open. A little lunch, a few more toys purchased for you-know-who, Kaesen, and we made it back in time for a long afternoon nap!
I'm hearing Taco Bell calling for dinner, which under the circumstances of having not eaten there in over four months, sounds terrific. Maybe a movie with Kaesen tonight, maybe a little hot tub relaxing with Kaesen tonight, and all for me! I love it when I am with my son.
I chatted with CPT Dan Leonard, TSgt John Morgan, and a few other friends from FOB Smart yesterday. I am always glad to know that they are safe. Capt Jonathan Ball leaves on his R&R next month, which I am sure his Gina is looking forward to especially as is he. CPT Leonard left recently to meet his fiance in Europe for a cruise during his R&R. Great people with great people – FOB Smart personnel truly are and I appreciate them for such.
143, Kaesen.
Good night and good day.
