loving the animals....











little baby piglet.....


Piggy in the bird cage.....





The easter bunny......



Ok it is time for another update.....
Things are going alright here, Easter was actually nice!
I played Easter bunny and put candy out for all the
people on my team and then they had an Easter dinner at the
DFAC (Dining Facility) complete with non-alcoholic sparkling
grape juice!! Can you beat that! I am settling in well enough.
I definitely have the drinking from the fire hose effect going
on with all the information for my personnel job and our
Iraqi counterparts have not even arrived yet......
I have found a bunch of people to do short runs with,
so I run 2 times a day. They also got in 2 new treadmills!! BUT
of course one is already broken......it may have been the guy who was
running on it in his dress shoes!!
We have lost our pet dog goldie (or red, he has multiple names depending
on who you ask) but we did acquire a wild piglet for like two days until the Colonel made
us get rid of it! I am adding some pics of the piglet and of the General (the cat)!!
Hope everyone is well!! Thanks for the correspondence!! It is great to hear
from everyone......dont worry I will write back : )

  1. Mickey,

    I am an intern for Athlete Services at the OTC in Colorado Springs. Sherry asked that I contact you to see what we could send you in a care package. I wasn't sure what you wanted really... got any suggestions?

    Also, I wanted to ask you if we could use one of your blogs each month in our Athlete newsletter? Being a former athlete here at the Training Center I think people would really like to hear what you have to say. Please let me know what you think. I am not too sure what I am going to call your section of the newsletter yet, but I was hoping that we could make it a monthly thing and it will keep you involved with the OTC here and the athletes a chance to hear first hand from a soldier.

    Please let me know. My email is bch22@ymail.com...

    Thanks,

    Brian

    Ohhh and the pig is awesome, too bad you had to let it go. Did it have a name?
