Winding down: Iraq war journals



I started keeping a journal shortly after Gayle and I were married 35 years ago. I didn't write very often some going months or years between entries. But when Mark joined the Army four years ago, I started writing regularly, almost daily. I will come close to completing six journals by the time Mark is out in a month. The question will be after he leaves, what will there be to write about? Our lives, absent the war, are pretty boring. And boredom is not so bad.
