Entry Number One (better titles on future posts, I promise)

January 13, 2010

Well, I am going to try this again:). I just wrote an entry and lost the whole thing!! How's that for a first blog.

Anyway, I have been confused over what to write, so I'll just tell you stuff about me I guess.  I currently live in Southern California and I work for a brand-spanking-new command called the 79th Sustainment Support Command.

Ever heard of it? Well, that makes all of us because this type of command has never before existed. I happen to think that is pretty cool, but I won't bore you with details. I'm the acting public affairs officer right now, so I get to do really fun things for my job, like take pictures of special events, meet people from all different types of organizations and travel to different states.

I also get to do boring things like go to meetings and develop manuals, but we won't talk about the boring stuff.

Anyway, I have been in since 2003 and I've loved it so far. My husband and I are expecting our first little one in June 2010. We are going to find out if it's a boy or a girl soon. I've been back from Iraq since May 2008 and have friends in Iraq again who I really need to send some care packages to! PRONTO.

Hopefully I can post all the way through my pregnancy and tell you about some of the fun stuff we have going on in our area. I will also try to post up some links to fun things happening in So Cal for military families of all branches. If you want to become a print or broadcast journalist, check out the blog of my former unit, the 302nd MPAD. It's a great site.

I'll try and think of something better for my next post. It's nice to get your blogger feet wet -- at least for the first go!

    How many hits have you received on your blog?

    I am actually not sure, simply because the PR firm tracking the hits doesn't give a breakdown by blog. Hits don't tell the true picture either because their are people who bounce. They click around on stuff and never read it. I will try to call the firm and see what other tracking mechanisms they have in place.
