I've been back for a couple of days, and it is amazing what a little break and getting to see my husband has done for my morale. I feel much better than I did before I went on R&R. Hopefully it will stick around a little. I'm over half way there!
I have a board coming up next week, so I have been preparing for that. And I also have a Soldier who was put in pre-trial confinement while I was gone, so I also have that case to work on. Those who don't like me travelling, just skip to the next paragraph. The Soldier who was put in pre-trial is stationed out of Regional Command South-West, and that is where the crime took place and all the witnesses are. So I will need to go out to Shindand Airbase to talk to witnesses and stuff, so I can more effectively work the case. The good news is, the flight out to Shindand is on fixed wing and not rotary wing, so no helicopter ride for me. It's a little weird that I don't like to ride in helicopters and yet I am assigned to an army aviation unit.
Other than that, I've been able to get back into my routine pretty easily. I'm back to going to the gym. Which is good, because even though we walked our butts off in Europe, I gained 4 pounds! Since coming back here, I have already lost 3 of those pounds (which I probably sweated off), but I don't like to see the scale going in that direction. I'm so close to my goal that I set coming into Afghanistan, that I'm starting to think that maybe I sold myself short on how much weight I could lose and maybe I need to adjust the goal.
