So today was a good day. Jrn and I both were off work. She was tired from working third shift and she wasn't feeling well so she slept most of the day. I went in my store this morning in my pjs to get coffee my Juva Roast and cigarettes. Then I came home and relaxed because well today is Veterans Day, my day and all I wanted to do was relax and do no housework and I haven't. So eventually I decided to get motivated and take a shower and got dressed and went back to my store for more coffee. I earned ten cents today by buying two coffees today on my Shell Fuel Rewards Card. I hung around the store talking to Tabitha and April. Eventually I left and I came home and Jen was still sleeping. She eventually got out of bed. I spent a good portion of the day working on my book. I wrote two chapters today of my book. Over a thousand words written today. After Jen got up she ordered pizza and we went to pick it up. I don't eat a lot of pizza because it messes with my Irritable Bowel Syndrome but I ate two slices and it was good. Bear called and I talked to him for a bit. He gave me a history lesson about slavery and the Nazis. A little too much information that I could have lived without hearing. The details were a bit too much for me. I sometimes prefer not to hear the details of some things. Anyways now Jen and I are watching The Voice and bed will be calling soon. Mom and Dad haven't called but I guess they won't since I will see them tomorrow.

Day 11
Day 11 Thankful
Since its Veterans Day. I am thankful I got to join the Army and be a part of a team. I am thankful for all the people I met and the different states I got to see and the different Army Bases I went to. I am thankful for my battle buddies whom became like family to me and the friendships that came about through it all. I am thankful to God for keeping me safe and also thankful that my battle Hatch introduced me to the church and I got involved in it and got baptised while at Fort Jackson. I am thankful for all that I learned while in the service and the skills that it taught me. I am thankful and proud to say I served and to be a Veteran. The Army helped me grow and mature and I am thankful for that. I am a Veteran and I was an American Soldier.
I am thankful to all the Veterans we have who so proudly served and fought for this country. I am thankful to those men and women who spent tireless nights and days overseas fighting for our freedoms. I am thankful to all the Veterans who proudly served our country.
