AF Day 235

FOB Smart at 1600 - Wednesday

I flew from Kandahar Airfield early this morning to arrive at FOB Smart around 1000. Returning was wonderful, especially in that I could finally make my way to my bed here at FOB Smart and catch up on some much-needed rest after four days of travel beginning at 0600 in Phoenix, Arizona, on 1 January. Seeing my friends here warmed my spirits.

Since my arrival I spent a few minutes chatting with coworkers, comrades, and even one of my local national contractors regarding ongoing work he is performing for one of my FOB projects. As tired as I was, and am right now, it was nice to get back into the groove of my life here in Afghanistan. Getting one's groove back can be difficult or it can be easy depending on the circumstances. With all of these professionals around me here, it is too easy. All of our projects, mine included, have slowed or even stopped. I have a few that will press through the winter, which is definitely here now!

143, Kaesen.

Good night and good day.
