Homesick

Richard, Kelsey and I went to Robert and Mary's house for dinner last Sunday. While there, Caleb called! He told his Granna that he was homesick and couldn't wait to come to her house for a good dinner. He gets to go off post on most weekends and eats out whenever he can. He's getting a bit tired of army food. I don't think he will ever eat rice again!
He has spent some of his money on toys to keep him occupied. Among his new toys are a DVD player, over 20 movies and a PSP with a few games. He is enjoying the freedom that he has during the weekends. AIT training is definitely better than boot camp!
He was supposed to get his pass taken away this past weekend because the sergeant said that he didn't shave. Caleb said that he did in fact shave but fortunately the sergeant forgot by the time the weekend came so Caleb went to an all night gaming place and played video games with some of the other guys. He had so much fun Friday night, that he pulled another all-nighter on Saturday.
He told us that his troop in Ft. Worth was deployed in February and since he doesn't graduate until May, he thinks he will miss this deployment. I sure hope he is right!!
