Well, after almost 4 years of avoiding it, Scott is being deployed to Iraq around the beginning of March. Thankfully, I will be back at work around the time he goes. He will be coming to visit us sometime in February, which is good.

I've been spending so much time worrying about myself and my health, that I don't think I can worry about him, too! I guess I have a fatalistic approach; I can't stop this from happening and at least he's not a machine gunner anymore. He's in intelligence and will be assisting a colonel, working with the "locals." We are not allowed to know any more than that.
Please send some good thoughts his way!
