Hi to all the ostomates out there,



Its been a long Trip, Left month ago for Ft. Polk LA., with a stop in AK. to see an old friend. Saw a wonderful sun raise as I left AR on highway 71 down to LA. Visited with grandbabies for the day. Then headed off to TX.  Was in killeen Tx for a good 2 weeks or so, Visted with some more grandbabies, Spent 5 days in San Antonio finishing permanent cosmetic school, then back to Ft. Hood..... Lots of sight seeing, great vacation... Was lucky this trip, Herman ( ostomy ) had no problems, even in the heat everything stayed on (105 to 113 every day), even went swimming with the grandkids..... Only thing I could of wished for was maybe a companion to make it all complete, But maybe some day, some where... there will be someone who can understand it all, and  accepting of who I am for me.... NOT of hERMAN!

Putz,



Welcome back to the GREAT state of IOWA!

  Sounds like you had a great trip!  I can tell you enjoyed the grand kids!  Aren't they fun.



The temp was definitely TX style!

I had a working trip once in 107 degrees and it was difficult keeping wafers to stick.  Guess I should just decide not to work over 95 degrees.  When I go on working trips I always take the recommended 2-3 times the supplies cause they don't last near as long
