A month has passed already! My brother is getting married on Saturday, so I'm leaving Iraq tomorrow to spend a week at home with the family! Again, reminding me how lucky I am that I took the job with this company and didn't come here with my old company that has so many rules and security and a very strict amount of days you have to be there before you get to leave.
Work wise, its been productive and I'm just trying to keep things moving, which will be especially difficult while I'm gone. It seems the only way to get anything done here is to get in someone's face and bug them. I'll only be able to do that via email for a week.
The plan was to have my permanent housing ready by the time I leave for the wedding, but that hasn't happened. So I'm leaving my things in the hotel for the week I'm gone... hope its ok!
I bought a few souvenirs for folks, but I didn't go overboard since I'll coming home for Christmas as well. One particular item I'm SOOO excited about, but its my brother's wedding gift and Ashley, his fiance might read this... so I'll keep it secret.
