Exercise

The military acronym for exercise is somewhat different than the civilian meaning. Here it means going to work for longer hours because you are practicing new systems, people..etc. It usually involves at a minimum 12 hours of work for days upon days. Not the exciting going to the gym and getting fit exercise; that is upon top of the work exercise.

In it now and the saying here is "embrace the suck" Not that life is hard or difficult, just not the ideal conditions. If you embrace it now it won't be so pain full later. Actually the work is going well and though the hours can seem long they are going by fast. So no, I am not complaining, just keeping you up to date with the fun and excitement that happens with the military life.

Working on the deployment moustache. Am happy to report that it is mostly red/brown. Was kinda expecting more gray (which would be fine) or multiple colors, but looks like it did last time. Still hasn't improved my looks but short of surgery, not worried about that. Have saved about 30 seconds off the shaving time though.

Hope you are having a great day.

I have missed spinning as well. I guess spinning in my own tracks won't count.

I'm thinking that the moustache will be short lived this month, however! Hmmm...
