3 thirty-five points won't get me far so I just have to wait and see what happens. Don't know whether it would be worse to stay here or go to the Pacific. Guess I should have a wife and some kids to help out my points. Just figured up how much money I've saved since I came to the army. Believe it or not I've stored away $1100.00. Pretty good huh? Make a good nest egg someday if I ever get out of the army. Can't do much about it now. There is a mail call coming up in a few minutes and I'm sure hoping I have a little luck. Had a little rain a while ago, but its all clear again. Really a fine evening.
