Well 5 o'clock is almost here and everyone else has abandoned helping me so ive been at it myself since lunch time. I am about ready to remove the body but a few welds are still holding me up. The boss is out so I hijacked his computer.
Space, my brother beat me to buying a home by 1 week. He lives about 20 minutes away from me to the north, closer to pittsburgh. He has a ranch house with a decent sized property. Its pretty nice.
I have no regrets about buying my place but I will be trying to get a raise here soon to give myself a little more spending money. Things are comfortable at the moment but cash is a little tight. I manage tho, just have to give up projects I used to spend my money on while living at home. Hopefully I can resume them once I make a little more money. I love making things for my car, its way more fun than buying them. I had some plans I had to put on hold I am dieing to get started on.

Good evening! I ended up not washing the car because I was playing around with the front bumper.
Space, I am a 31E (Military Police; Internment Resettlement Specialist) a fancy name for a military prison guard. It is not too hard to get promoted in the Army with my MOS. I have dragged my feet on getting a promotion because I was working towards being an Army Aviator. That didn't work out, so I went to a "Promotion Board". I did very well on the board, so I was recommended for promotion. Every month the Department of the Army releases a minimum points requirement for promotion for every MOS. Every soldier in that MOS who has greater than the minimum required points will be promoted the 1st of the following month. A Soldier's points are calculated by a lot of things including Physical Fitness, Education, Awards/Decoration, etc. I currently live on post, but will soon be moving to Ohio to prepare my family for my absence. I hope you have a good weekend too. The surf should be up for sure about now. Have a good one.
