Christmas 2009 - Baghdad, Iraq


Today is Tuesday, 22 December. Although, I had thought it was going to be a bit hard to be not just away from family and friends but in Baghdad for Christmas, it is a bit more depressing than I had expected. This week, especially, has been pretty sad and I have not really been motivated either at work or at home to do much. Life does go on and I am trying to overcome this mood and enjoy the moment. Bob and I here together and that is definitely a plus for a place like this. This picture shows the only Christmas decoration that we have in the compound, this is the DFAC (dining facility) where we eat all of our meals and socialize with our friends and co-workers and meet new people. Oh, I almost forgot to mention... you can see my honey at the table on the left side of the picture.
