First deployment for ‘26. Two and a half weeks in southern Texas near Mexico. Then February in Grande Prairie if you survive and that paperwork all ends up okay. There will be a temperature difference.
Honestly, you’re a bit worried. Haven’t had the conditioning of hauling kegs this time, and Flame’s cooking has been wonderful, but not exactly low-calorie. Hitting the gym has been good, but it’s too little too late to play much of a factor. At least you’re subbing mid week thanks to the last-minute need – three days of really heavy pain to start it off before the weekend instead of all five. Hope no one got hurt.
It won’t take that long to get back in the groove, but the last thing you wanna be is the weak man on the team. Well, maybe this is what they get for not having you in the field for 5 months.
Nah, it’s on you. 😂 Nice try. No one else is responsible for your fitness but you. Felt odd kissing Flame goodbye at home as you headed out. Brother-in-law will be picking her up today to take her home and you had to give her a key to lock up.
Been with her four months and things are going well enough. You are seriously gonna have to level up to take care of her given her health concerns. It’s daunting, NGL. Both of you are gonna have to ‘grow’ so much.
She’s gonna need to work and drive. Be more serious. You’re gonna need to cover her health insurance and everything else. Be even more serious.
She lives two hours away, and that’s not going to change until… then / if, and that isn’t soon. So much is contingent on growth.
And the Bible. Read Book of Proverbs with her. All to get to Proverbs 31. What you need in your other half. What you need to be for her, etc. It’s all there. It works… if the couple both does what they need to in order to mitigate future resentment.
Move towards God. Seriously, move towards Him. It’s cold again. Get into Acts. Pray for guidance. And mercy. This week is so gonna hurt. 😂
It’s Not a Frame of Mind
