My Military career is coming to an end

DJ / 3 Years Ago

Where does the time go? We've been in San Antonio for nearly 3 years and it is nearly time for me to retire from the military and transition into a new career elsewhere. This is a little daunting, as my last non-military job was at McDonald's 26 years ago.

Fortunately, the military has a program called Skillbridge which allows me to intern for a company for a while before I get out while still being paid by the military. In the coming weeks, I'll be doing interviews and I should know what company I'll be interning for by the end of July. The 29th of August is when I'll start, which is just over 10 weeks from now! Crazy!

Other than that huge item, things are mostly uneventful. We love our pool and spend a lot of time in it. We love our dog, L3go, whom we adopted in December. I look forward to what the future brings and I'm ready for the next chapter!

    Things never go the way you think
    It is hard to believe that the last time I posted, nearly 16 months ago, life was so vastly different. We had just moved to Peoria... and now we've been gone from Peoria for 9 months! Just 40 days after I was let go by Liberty Mutual, Kelley was let go by Caterpillar. That led to some dark months
