What gets you through a bad day?

Haha, beat me to it Sgt Major. Old Jack is a good friend of mine too.

we shouldn't be promoting drinking LOL

SFC (Join to see) - LOL! Yeah, another example of the Army over stressing something. You can only mitigate so much, Soldiers want to be treated like adults so, we should treat them like adults. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

rgr that SGM , I understand that they want to be treated like adults but some of our young soldiers these days don't act like adults. I think the problem is that our army is converting from reacting to war (IRAQ and Afghanistan and other countries) to Garrison environment and that's where young bucks get in trouble. Then we get to hear it from higher and do more refresher training on things like SHARP and Substance abuse.

Same here SGT Joel my kids smile and laugh brings me out of my gloomy days and turns my day into a brightly lit day.

Yes Maam I agree on gardening I did that when I had good soil and managed to bear tomatoes and lettuce which I love But it kinda frustrated me that the yield on the harvest wasn't much. But i was mad at first but i understood why I shouldn't be ad that was a good sign that I am improving in my mental health issues. My new project right now is to create a green house on my backyard. Im saving up on the materials to make a greenhouse and I want to do bonsai and orchids. My mom loves orchids and since she lives with me I try to take care of her or vice versa. Liquor is something I try not to but I sure miss it its just because I had liver malfunction before a few years back and its scares me a lot.

CPL Eric Escasio - Stay busy and go for the interest. Challenges help us stay on target. Take care of your Mom. You only have one!;-)
