Hello all who read this


So the last month for me has been very interesting at work. I work as a quality engineer at a aerospace manufacturer. Lately I have poured over blueprints and butt heads with design engineers and im burned out. A failure is a failure and a bandaid over a bullet wound doesn't work. Anyways im just one voice among many i hope I will be heard.

In other news some of my friends have told me that I am somewhat anti social . That kinda hurt hearing that . I have spent a lot of time thinking about it and I guess i sort of am. Since my retiring from the army I definitely don't get out as much as i used to but i don't drink as much as I used to either. Im not a drunk but I was self medicating with alcohol. My VA rep isn't very helpful and I am very bitter about my treatment with the VA and other civilian doctors. I spent 7 years and 3 tours in Iraq and sacrificed relationships and for my country and i deserve better. I can't walk through a metal detector without having to strip search and show a doctors note and my VA id card. well there is my rant.

In other news my little frenchie and I went for a road trio to Portland and then to bend for fun and to check out some vacation property. Here she is in the back of my car , she was very tired . She is a great travel companion even with all her farting !
