First, I must extent my apology for being late this month.
Have too many things on my mind besides having to do them.
The weather sure is acting strange, we have experienced warm Winters and cooler than normal Springs.
Can all this be telling us something?
Well, if we have a wet spring, it might bring more than just flowers in May, June, July and August.
Speaking about May, that when we'll be getting that 'feel good' money.
A little voice keeps telling me that sooner or later we're going to pay for this 'feel good' money.
Lately, there been a lot of cancellations by the Airlines.
I wonder what it's doing to many who depend on flying.
Those coming home on leave from a deployment or basic/boot camp.
Also those returning from a leave, some might be charged for being Unauthorized Absence or UA.
Or will their commands make adjustments for these cancellations?
Time will tell.
Don't forget about 15th April, I hope that you have already filed your taxes.
That's if you have to file.
Well that all for this month.
Semper Fidelis
Ricardo
