is the hospital therapy dog...he belongs to one of the American contractors down at Arifjan and he brings him in every so often to visit the staff and patients and one of the LT's had been asking to have him come visit us, so he finally came to visit! and what a GREAT surprise....so needless to say we took him over to the fire department and had his picture taken on the firetruck! And then I had to add a picture for you guys to see our LOVELY facilities we get to use on a 24/7 basis! Well, everything is going well, wish me luck on my advancement exam on Thursday..one more milestone to get over before coming home....so hope everyone is doing well back stateside and I can't wait to come home!~Take Care ~Angie {this is the email I sent out to everyone today :)}




on another note, I guess Sam & Ben are not really getting the chore chart for money concept, but Matt said Sam finally did do the kitchen, but only half ass, so as he says "well, see"...and hopefully once Ben sees that Sam is getting money at the end of the week, then he will be more willing to try as well...I suggested to Matt that they should also get a "FREE" day on the weekend where no chores are required...so I guess I will update in about a week and see how it's going!


and here is a look at our LOVELY bathroom facilities....it is actually WORSE than a port-a-potty, if you can belive that!
