Well... as many of you know a while back, I decided the current path i was on, was not the one that God wanted me to be following. Things were getting rough and were not looking any better. Job was getting to me, Vehicle problems, etc etc. Back in December I rededicated my life to Christ, and let me tell you, it has been the best thing I have ever done. In the following months Christ has taught me a lot about who I was, and who I need to become. Looking back, I dont even recognize the person that I was. Since then, He has Got me out of the Lemon Tahoe and into a new car, that gets better Gas milage and wont break. But he didn't just get me out of it, he reduced the monthly payments from 330 to 250 a month, insurance went down about 20 bucks a month, and he cut my gas bill in half. As some of you know about 6 months ago I left the girl I had been seeing for 3 years because to me the relationship was going nowhere. Looking back on that relationship and realizing it was one of the causes that slowly lead me astray I can see Gods hand working there. 5 months ago today, I met someone new, she lives in Boise, and I really believe that this is the woman God intended me to be with for the rest of my life. We are of Like faith, at the time, we were in the same boat, convicted, backsliding Christians. Through the past 5 months I have got to know her and I really believe that there is no other reason than to think it was meant to be. Since meeting Linds, I have been activly searching for Work over in Boise, as well as staying towards my goal of getting into the Army. A couple weeks ago, I got an E-mail from Meridian Computer Center saying they wanted me to start ASAP but it was only for 20 hours a week. Well you cant live on 20 hours a week at 9.50 an hour trying to juggle car payment, insurance, fuel, rent, and food. So i kept my search up. Last night I sent an E-Mail to Cuttingedgenetworks.com and the guy was extatic about my resume. He said he has something in the works real soon and will be contacting me about it once it pans out. The other great thing is, last night, I taped in at 43.5 inches on my waist, which for those of you that have been following my progress, is about 2 inches less than what the MEPS quack taped me at 30 days ago. (and i didnt even have the herbal body wrap this time =P) I go up to MEPS tonight for my retape, SFC Giles, and the NG liason will be in there to make sure the Doc Tapes me right the first time, tomorrow morning. I just wanted to share this with you guys, how things for me have been going. God truely is Awesome, and he can do all things.

Well I'm dieting so mine will have to be a large salad! Congrats on the changes, Sky6 is truly awesome, when you quit trying to take charge and let him be the leader things go so much smoother. Speaking of smooth has he done anything to change your shorn scrote fetish? LOL, couldn't resist! Good luck on the tape test, sounds like you have been doing some heavy duty praying and working to make the standards. I'm also "downsizing" and it is amazing how well prayer and consistant workouts have changed me...for the better. Even the HH6 and slice element are in the mode. God is great! Again congratulations...I still want to see you at Basic!
Stand in the door!
