does this work

ok so i have no idea if i'm posting a comment here or what. I think you can thank Sarah for fixing my computer and figuring out how to change everything from German to English. Things are going ok here but nothing really exciting to report. The army just came out today and is offering me 35,000 dollars to stay in for an extra 3 years...10,000 a year is a nice raise. thanks to everyone who has sent packages and letters already. ok well going to keep this short b/c not sure if i'm doing the right thing or not. talk to everyone later

HI, Matt -- Glad to hear from you! You should be proud that because of you, your old aunt (and mother and father, are bloggers)! YOu could have found an easier way to make this happen, though. We are proud of you and all that you and the troops are doing over there. Because of all of you, we can all rest easier at night!Tim talked to a marine at a wedding we were attending the other day, and he had been to Afganistan and just returned from Iraq. He said that things were definitely improving over there. Hope he is right!

Matt, I still don't have SIPRNET access but it is promised soon. I have moved on to the Office of the National Counterintelligence Executive as a contractor looking at policy (big Yawn). The General did a good job; and I hope your brigade will come home early. ravens lost- doesn't look good for the Terp against WVU and the orioles are in free fall. Hope to get with Cpt. Fink of the Sea Fox soon - ned to hear stories and not catch fish. Keep your head down thanks for your service. Uncle Tim

Can't wait to hear from you again Matt. Looks like we'll be "south" in a few months, so we'll be closer to the big partay when you return! Bring it on! Oh, and I don't know where "south" we will be

Did you know that all anyone can talk about is Brittany Spears' horrible performance at the VMA's?

Hi Matt,

Great to hear from you!!! So glad you finally made it onto the blog, it wasn't the same without you. :0)Hopefully you are able to read all of the past bloggings. You can just go over on the right hand side and click on September and all of them should pop up.

Thank you for all you are doing over there. Be looking for a package soon. Calvin and I have been working on gathering stuff. Is there anything specific that you need? Jeanine (Jeamon- Jeanine and Almon combined, genius huh?)
