I finally made it home!  I have been a home a little over a week and its amazing how fast “real life” comes crashing back in.  I spent the first few days just getting in-processed back into the states.  Since I ended up an an individual re-deployer, I managed to skirt out of most of those long boring speeches and classes, but I did have to run all over the post trying to find individuals and departments to clear my paperwork and become “officially back.”

So I have been dealing with re-deployment issues for the last two weeks.  What a headache.  The right hand never talks to the left, let alone the feet.  One minute everything is on track, scheduled and everybody is aware.  Thirty seconds later, you call back and no one knows anything and its suddenly a rat race to put out the fire.  Then comes DCS, the civilians, the contractors, and Navy Customs. I can keep going, but it is giving me a migraine just to think about it.

Yes, posting two weeks at a time since my net connectivity is spotty at best.

So I finished up my last scheduled duty cycle this morning.  No more flying MEDEVAC in Iraq for this tour.  We are almost done for this round.  The new replacement unit is on the ground, they are almost ready to stand up and take over the mission, and I am off to another country in a few days to watch over all our stuff until its headed home.

Time is running out. Its almost time to leave this place.

Ok, so last week wasn’t quite the last digest. I really need to find something around here to write about. Any ideas?

Possibly the last Twitter Digest from Iraq: The Second Tour.  My internet connectivity is about to get really spotty for the next several weeks.  Expect blogging and tweeting to resume a normal schedule once I get settled back into “normal life.”  I’ll post as I can, and I’ll try to do one big “roundup” of any tweets I post between now and then.

Thanks to everyone that has followed me throughout this deployment. 

Counting down the days till the OIF Twitter Digests can come to a close.

So what do you do when there are no MEDEVAC calls?  Not a whole lot…

Better late than never.
