Today has really been a pretty good day minus the heat (102 Degrees!!!). First off, Andrew got 2nd place in a 5K (3.1 miles) this morning. I think there were over 500 people who participated, so CONGRATULATIONS to him!!! Then I had to do some CTT training which wasn't at the top of my list of fun things to do, but we got it done. Then GOOD NEWS... the brand new PX, GYM, and recreation center all opened up today! The PX is seriously like (the devil) Wal-Mart! It was great! I bought a pair of spandex that I love! I think I might have to go get another pair. Then since it was the Grand Opening of these places, they had a Bazaar type thing with Hadji vendors all over the place. I bought a couple of head scarfs. Very cute. Also, they were grilling outside, so I got a REAL hamberger that someone had to actually smash into a patty. It was amazing. They put seasoning on it and everything. So sad when I have to blog about a good Hamberger. They had music playing really
loud on the stage with a cute Hadji DJ. Then I was so wiped out from the heat of the afternoon that I went to my barracks and took an 1 1/2 hour nap that felt absolutely amazing. I was so disoriented when I woke up. That's when you know they were beneficial! After that I had to go do another class, but it was short lived. Now I am here writing to all of you. That's about all for the day. I think I might have to play volleyball tonight, but I'm not sure. We'll see how that goes. Miss you.
