My sad story

[PonderThis]

Hello everyone,
I am so sorry I have not been here. Life and it's curves has made life very hard and leaves me with no time for myself or my friends. I have not picked up my AB in a couple months. I can not remember when I last even had the chance to do anything for fun. I will be leaveing for deployment on 18 Jan this year. I am taking all of my gear with me. I have not given up, just not able to do the things I want yet. My son's so called mother and boyfriend are being investigated for child neglect and abuse. It has been very hard on him and his brothers and sister. I will be using the following e-mail address from the 18th of Jan until somtime in AUG or SEP. : james.c.mitchell1@cvw9.navy.mil

I would relly like to hear from you all and hope that you have not written me off.

Happy Belated Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.

Ponderously ,

JC

Hello everyone, I am finally out to sea for 7 to 9 months. I have all of my gear with me and seem to be pretty popular because of it. I am beeing asked to paint a couple hundered shirts. I am afraid I am not going to do it right. I am using ETAC paint and only have to use the color black. nothing fancy but I want to make sure the paint does not wear off or fade too fast. I am not sure if I need to put a base coat down before I apply the black or if I can just shoot black on the cloth.

I greatly appreciate all of the support and understanding with my lack of participation. I can do nothing about my son for the time beeing. I have a PI looking in on him and CPS. Best I can do and I think AB'ing all of these shirts will help me to pass the time. I will be in touch when ever we have internet connection. If you could give my a bit of help in how to prep my shirts and what not I would be greatful. I know this is not the right topic to place my question under but it took me 10 minutes just to load the page, net is slow out here. Ok I will check back as soon as I can and I still would love to hear from you @ james.c.mitchell1@cvw9.navy.mil


Love Peace and hair Grease
