Alive, and attempting to kick!

Anyone still out there?  I'm back in Colorado, albeit with mixed feelings.  I owe you folks a huge update, but my heart has not been into blogging lately.  I can barely bring myself to keep up with my blog-roll, which regularly tops 250+ unread posts.

I may not have been deployed, and I'm not downplaying those emotions or even trying to liken my own to them, but reintegration has been a challenge.  I was blissfully out of touch with reality while I was gone, and I was extremely successful at what I was doing.  I come back to disorganization and chaos, both at home and work.  Colorado feels different.  I feel different.

My best to you as you reintegrate. I hope it gets easier for you, and you get back into a civilian groove. :)

I hope you find your routine soon. Deployment or not, reintegration is hard.

i was only gone two months and it took me a while to get back to normal. it is strange coming back to a familiar place, yet things have changed while you have been away. it is hard to find your "home self" again. don't worry though, it will all become normal again.
