    Morning.

     

    Oh I agree Van. He should just do it and then tell everyone. They sure don't need a big party Etc

      Good morning peeps!  Yes, it's true that I think there is a sweet spot time to be a lieutenant and I am past that part.  I even feel weird when a senior master sergeant calls me "sir", when 5 months ago I would be calling him sir.  Other awkward moments are having "mentoring" sessions with my instructor who is ten years younger than I am.  It has to be tactful yet direct, ugh  My maintenance background often trumps the instructor's knowledge of the weapon system on many  aspects.  Missiles are almost 95% the same as airplanes regarding command and control, as well as parts and practices.  The 5% is mostly the "super spooky stuff" and all the dang security involved.

       

      Running wise it's been getting better still, so thats still positive.

        It will get better, neil.

         

        I had a nice run.  Not great because the headwind was making me slow, but a very nice one.

          Sounds complicated Doug.  Good luck on the hunt.

           

          Marjorie, that would be ideal, Ha.

           

          Neil, it's always tough adjusting to new conditions.  Just keep swimming.

           

          Damaris, it's good when those come around.

            Yoohoo.  Quiet thread today.  I'm on the night shift this weekend.  Blah.  It's ok if I get enough sleep, but I'm not, and my allergies have turned into a full blown cold.  Meh.  Hopefully it passes in normal time.  Have a good remainder of the weekend folks.

                    Van, sorry about the night shift.


                    Neil, hope the run goes well.

                     

                    I ran the advanced trail at the park (super technical trail).  Nice run in the woods.

                      Hi folks. Relaxing after a long week of running and a 21.5 run today.

                      Marjorie

                        Good day friends!

                          Successful 12 miler today, and have been doing chores with beer in hand.  Life ain't too bad today, but I am bummed that our test launch has been cancelled due to "political" reasons.  Sad

                              Today was 1 of those days I did not want to go run but I did anyways since I knew I needed to get my run in.

                               

                              12 easy miles in about 2 hours, nothing earth shattering.  Tried out my new shirt  for the long run as well.  Same shirt as in the pic.  Brooks short sleeve from the local running store.  Extra Mile Fitness which explains the EXMI label on the left chest.

                               

                              Oh and the RR is up from Ringing In Spring

                                My first tech shirt I got five years ago from a LRS and I still have it and use it every so often.  I only bring that up because I used it today and it's my old trusty shirt Smile

                                 

                                I have acquired and rid of many shirts since then, now it's like wearing a badge of honor.
