Mornin', everyone. Just wondering what's going on lately. Anyone returning to school soon?

And SoldierNurse....haven't seen you around the past 2 days or so; you ok?

Cass, you're due for another vacation about now, eh?

Hello & Good Morning!

Hey Cat, thanks for asking. I was real busy yesterday doing military stuff regards to prep for moving to a new base.

I'm always good for the beach :) I looking at different companies now for my planned travel nursing in Oct I'm having a bit of a problem narrowing it down to who is a good company and who's not so I guess I'll just have to pick and go :)

I love the beach! Something about the sound of the waves and the beautiful landscape is so relaxing.

LOL, a world of difference between desert sand & beach sand. :p

... I have no plans of going to any desert for a long time [at least 2 years].

BTW, 14 months, 1 week, and 1 day ;)

desert sand is more like dust isn't it? When my DH was over there he said it was where he was at...my bestfriend lives in Saudi and does say the burka (whatever it's called) does keep the dust off. They have snow plows to push the sand off the road from the sand storms that blow and cover the road.

Yes, it is more like a sandy powder. It gets into everything. The sandstorms were very miserable, too.

What does your friend do in Saudi, i.e. employment?
