This week wasn't too hectic as we are getting ready for the upcoming field exercise in Virginia. RP and I are getting everything ready and packed up for the trip. We spent almost three hours on Wednesday going through our stuff in the cage that was left over from the last deployment and discovered that we don't really need to order many religious supplies for the upcoming deployment. I think there are enough materials that anyone can get what they need for any religion or denomination. Plus we also found some good relationship counseling materials.
It was also a good week as the CO and I began to discuss the ministry plan for deployment and how best to get me around to all the companies on a routine basis while deployed. It is pretty amazing at how close the deployment is and at the same time how far away some of the guys think it is. The RP and I also did a good amount of work in prepping our coverage plan for the trip to VA next week.
A quick glance at how consuming the job can be, I didn't even realize that one of the races I ran every year while in seminary, the Krispy Kreme Challenge, occurred this weekend. Had I known and planned better I might have gone to my parent's house on Friday to participate yet again. Maybe next year.
