... R & R Leave!

I got home for a two week R&R on the 3rd of May. I just now logged in to see what was new at BF, and was a bit mystified at the upper left logo replacement "BladeForums.com.. Yeah, we're back. We missed you too."

Sorry to say guys, I didn't miss you a bit :)

In the past couple weeks, I've built 15 Lego forts, worn out 6 cans of play-do, colored 50+ crayola masterpieces, and played perhaps 20 games of hid-and-seek. Life is GOOD!

Now it's time to say goodbye to the wife and kids again :(

Anyway, welcome back. Even if I didn't miss you.
 
Jemelby,

I first want to say thank you for your service to our Country and keeping the rest of us safe.

Secondly, I applaud you for the way you spent those couple of weeks. I remember so fondly, the legos (always my favorite), PlayDough, cards, fingerpainting (and the requisite cleanup). They are just fond memories now, so enjoy the moment and the time you are allowed to spend with your family.

Keep safe.
 
Hey Jemelby..

Glad you had a good time...

If you need anything over there, anything at all.. Please email me and I'll do my best..

From one aging-Jarhead to a true warrior: thanks for all you're doing over there and know that we're all behind you 100%. Keep your powder dry and your head down! Semper Fi Jim Falor
 
You are right, nothing compares to the joy you feel coming home to be with family after (or during) a deployment.

Thanks for all that you have done and continue to do for our country. :thumbup:
