Getting Settled In

Thanksgiving has come and gone.  It was my first real holiday being away from family.  I must say I missed being home and being with family.  My parents drove out to see me and see what's its like being stationed in Del Rio, TX.  It was nice having them here.  Had they not been here, Thanksgiving would have been real lonely.  They stayed in a TLF on the base, which was really great because they also brought my dog Shadow! My dad took my friends and I out to Thanksgiving dinner at Luby's.  He could tell we all missed being home.  At least we got to eat some turkey.  

My inprocessing is coming to a close.  I should be getting that first AF paycheck soon.  It is finally nice to be almost done with this checklist.  When Phase I gets here, I'll be back in the books and going through the rigors of flight school.  Until then, the last of inprocessing continues tomorrow.  I hope my stuff gets here soon.  Not having internet and cable is a real drag!

To top things out, my alma mater of Kansas beat Mizzou in the Border Showdown! Nothing is sweeter! I was thrilled I got to see it live.  It looked like it was freezing there.  Can't say the same for Del Rio, TX.
