So today is day two of "in processing". Yesterday, I left Shane to finish off around noon and I went to explore the town and the rest of the base. I went to the church (The Salvation Army, the officer is very hospitiable and kind and is allowing us to stay with her until our housing on base is ready...which right now looks to be about the 1st of April) then I went back to base and went to explore the commissary and PX. I don't know, but I get a strange feeling about these people, maybe it was just because I was smiling at anyone I ran into at the PX/commissary but everyone just looked at me and turned the other way...:( I hope people are more friendly in a different environment. I never thought I would hear myself say this but, grocery shopping was kind of calming for me as it gave me a sense of "home". I have been struggling the last couple of days to "keep it together" as I am really missing everyone back home since I don't really know anyone here...
Today we are finishing in processing and have a few briefings to go to, it will be nice to meet other "newbies". I think we are going to go to movie night on base tonight and possibly go to the indoor pool. I want to go and see what sort of fitness classes the gym here offers...
Well, I'm off for now, Shane will be back from morning PT soon and I need to get ready to go to base for briefing.
Talk to everyone later...
love and hugs
Heather
