Day 1
Last night was a long one. I was exhausted from working 6 days last week. 10-12 hour days Monday through Friday and a wedding party to get ready yesterday morning, as well as attending the ceremony and reception. There was still much to do…

KOAs and AAA
We leave one month from today. I haven’t been as present here as I would like to be post-LHX. I have a lot going on – which is fine and good but overwhelming! Turkey and I are both working lots of overtime and getting…
