Communication Blitz!!

I've been sleeping pretty well lately, especially this week since I've gone back to work. Getting used to a new routine and working all day to get the classroom ready have been more tiring than I expected.This morning I woke up around 4 am. I lay there for a while, fighting the urge to get up and get online. Finally I gave in and what should I see but TB on Messenger! Oh my! I'm always amazed when that kind of thing happens, but it seems to occur often for us.

TB is temporarily at a different FOB that has internet access. I'm loving this! We've chatted three times today! He sent photos first thing this morning. One was of him holding up two of the boxes I sent; one in each hand. How he can do that is beyond me! What I really love about the photo is the expression on his face! It makes my heart sing to see him so happy and content looking. He posted great photos on Facebook that give a good idea about the terrain. It's very rugged and austere.

It's so nice to have him right there and to have an actual back and forth conversation instead of waiting 12, 24, or more hours. I know it's a lot easier for him, too. It won't last long, but that's okay. I'm enjoying it while I can.
