My husband is in the process of transferring from guard to active duty. First, he needs to return before he can start anything. He needs to talk to a Army recruiter, then the recruiter will give him the conditional release form to have his commanding officer in the guard sign. That form can be denied by the CO, especially the guard is getting deployed all the time. After his conditional release is signed, he will have to start the process of going back to the recruiter, then MEPS, then so forth. In order for the transfer to happen, he has to have the conditional release form signed!!!

Good luck!!!

PUNCH! i luv em soooo much!xxxxxxx

My son did a little hand print mold ornament that we got from the craft store last X-Mas.

I am 56. Here is what I 'embrace' with passion;

1. The internet. Thank GOD my mother required that I take typing classes (IBM with the ball) in High School. Guys did not type. Now I type all the time at work. First it was a typewriter, then a word processor, then the computer. I use the internet 99% of the time at home. LOVE the internet. Has taught me more than all school could ever teach me. What they could do; put a dictionary on the computer which explains what error messages actually are.

2. Cell phones. Years ago, when you needed help; such as a car break-down, you walked to a pay phone (I walked 9 miles one night, then walked back to my car). Now there are cell phones and help arrives quickly. What a change. Problem with new phones; that tiny keyboard and too much on the screen. The screens are going to have to get a LOT bigger (think the soldier movie where they fight bugs; they had 8-1/2 x 11 screens on their phones. Cannot remember the name of the movie. Sorry.)

3. Blood testing machines and medical scanners. Now doctors can tell me what is wrong, no matter how small, and what to do about it.

4. Most important; exercise. I have been exercising for 23 years. Exercising has given me a strong, and healthy body. And technology has shown me what works, what does not.
