It’s Sprinkling in Iraq

Just got this wonderful note from a truly wonderful lady. Stephanie is an Army nurse doing work I can’t even begin to imagine, but she’s a pro and I’m so proud of her…

Hey Folks!
Greetings from Iraq. Tonight, while working my 8 hour shift in the ER here in “this place”, I heard the distinct pitter patter on the aluminum roof of our trailer hospital… That sound that any Washingtonian can specify in less than a nanosecond… Yes, rain!!!! It has been drizzling off and on for the last 30 min. Every time I hear it pick up a little, I run out side without my cover and dance around like a ninny, with my hands raised high to catch as many drops as possible. It is as if it is bathing my tired body.

hahha… I can do without the pending mud hole, but heck, I love the rain none-the-less…

Love,
Stephanie

Tribes. "I am not a wolf. I have never harmed a person in my life. But I am not a sheep, either. I know these forces are out there, and wishing it were not so will not only not make them go away – it will rob me of my chance to kick their ass when they show up."
