Day 42 Thanksgiving

The thing about Holidays when you're deployed is that they just seem like every other day...Groundhog day...except the chow hall makes turkey. Well, tonight Fox is broadcasting the football game from here. I won't be able to attend the broadcast for 2 reasons. 1) They only have a limited number of spots in the sports bar. I don't have a ticket. 2) more importantly, I'll be working during the broadcast. Anyhow, yeah...this is my second set of holidays I'll spend deployed. I miss everyone. I definitely wish I could be back celebrating with Christine, family and friends, but I know that in the end this is better for the big picture. At the end of this deployment I will be completely debt free, and for that I am thankful. I'm also thankful to have the best girlfriend in the world. She sent me an awesome care package the other day, and it really brightened up my day/week. Thank you, Christine!

Today I worked my abs, back, and triceps, followed by 30 minutes on the treadmill and 30 minutes on the bike. I sweated a bunch. It was a really good workout. Tomorrow is swimming again. I'm looking forward to that! Ok, time for my protein shake followed by bed!

Happy Thanksgiving!
