Ah, Wednesday, the week is half way done. I saw this picture at The Pioneer Woman's site and had to add it here. Have you ever had one of those days. Today wasn't it for me, but I couldn't wait with this one. Pioneer Woman has an amazing ability to capture remarkable shots with her cameras, as well as a great ability to tell stories. If you haven't seen her site before, go check it out.

Mrs. Dub said she's ready to have me back home and I couldn't agree more. I'm enjoying the training but I do miss my family and home. (I also have way too many chores at home that need attention).
About 90% of the time, Arabic has been fun, in fact, as an extra assignment, two of us went to the movies last night and saw Traitor. A good portion of it is in Arabic and picking up on what was being said was fun and new. I stopped at the store today and heard a woman tell her son to come to her in Arabic and I had to smile. I'm trying to use several different tools at home to help with my learning while at my apartment.
Miss Dub is enjoying school and despite her agony during the first two days of French, now loves it. She into reading stories in French and is 'wanting' to learn at this point. Like I said, I hope to pick back up on my French when I get home.
I know all this sounds boring, but there's not much else going on for me here. Be safe and have a great day.

hey dub! good to hear from you! i saw a commercial on tv that said the army uses rosetta stone to teach languages. is that true?
how is sierra vista?

I think it's excellent that you are finding ways to "immerse" yourself in Arabic. That's the best way to learn a language.
Just wanted to stop by and say hi! Hope that life is treating you just lovely and that the Arabic lessons are going well.
Hey, I was just reading over your ancient blog posts, like the one from the first day of school, as an update, my alegbra grade is a 99 without any help whatsoever. =D
