A different type of Cleaning

Howdy All. I am reporting to you from a totally new location. I am now living in Louisville, KY. I have PCS'd (Permanent Change of Station) from my "school" location (TDY - Temporary Duty) to my new home, Fort Knox, KY. ?YIPPEE? It's nice so far. I will put pictures up as a take them of where I am living and the Ft. Knox area. I haven't taken any yet because I have been in the process of finding then moving into a new apartment. The way the Army works, is that if you get approved for Permissive TDY, it gives you 10 days to look for and move into a home/apartment without deducting leave. Which is a good thing. I am currently taking a break from the cleaning up my messes around the apartment to write. All the boxes are unpacked and the furniture in place. There is only a matter of cleaning up some disorganized drawers and buying food.

The moving experience was something new too. I wasn't just moving into an apartment, I was moving out of my parents home. All through college I had stuff there. And I knew that I still lived there even though I was at school in my own habitat. Now it was different. I cleared just about all I could find from my home, to pack into a truck (that is very hard to drive in high winds) and take away to MY home. In some ways it was exciting. The final step to independence and being a "real adult". In other ways it was a sad day to move away from the home that I had had for the last 24 years, with the love of mom and dad just behind the turn of a door knob. That love and home are still there, but I know it will be a while before I can return. And when I do, it will be for a weekend or so. But it will be a great time. And that is for certain.

So for now, my life will consist of working at Fort Knox, and learning my way around Louisville.

To contact me, the email and phone number have stayed the same. The new address is as follows:
8710 Zachary Circle #7
Louisville, KY 40214

I look forward to hearing from you all. Keep in touch. This area of the country is beautiful and I don't object to visitors.
