Right now I am currently looking in state at the University of Central Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University. If I end up choosing to go all online it will broaden the search radis and options but currently it is just those two schools.

Both are excellent schools, I attended Cameron U for a semester when I first came into the Army

More schooling, more studying and any further steps that might help me accomplish my dream of becoming a pilot! I also plan to keep working on my fiction and creative writing in my off time.

Happy New Year and welcome to 2015!! This year is going to be the year of change...or more accurately, the year of prepping for change.
- February: Wife and I will travel to TN to scope out a few locations for possible retirement (we haven't been there, no family there, but looks like it may meet our desires).
- 2 March: will push the button for retirement
- April: hope to put current house on the market for sale
- June: daughter does her school Washington DC Trip
- July: possible re-location of wife an daughter to TN (or other location for retirement as determined right by us). They will do this so that my daughter can start her first day of HS at the new school.
- December: should have my retirement ceremony and leave Montana for TN. Official retirement 1 March 2016, projected last day in uniform is on/around 10 Dec 15.
Going to be a very exciting and yet also scary year.

I only have it planned out monthly as my WIFE is demanding answers that I don't have yet!! :-) need to have orders in hand so that I can arrange TMO for packout and delivery or storage (depends on housing on the other end). There is also some bear hunting (spring) and maybe some antelope hunting in the fall that I want to work in before I leave MT!!! Bear would probably be in May, and antelope will probably be in September. Time will tell how well my timeline holds up!!

Outstanding goals, Texas AM is a great choice, thats my home state! I found that CTC is the hardest 2yr school in the country!

2014 was a year of rebirth for me. I turned 50 in September and on January 1st of 2014 decided that I wasn't going to go into the second half of my life heavy and out of shape and dreading every PT test. With the support of my coworkers and family I dropped close to 16" off my body and gained a lot of muscle through exercise and proper diet. I also focused on distressing my life and focusing on the important things in life - wife and family first, career second.
2015 I will continue this journey I am on with my health and fitness. I will also complete my MOS conversion course in a few months and realize my military dream of being a military policeman. Travel more, and spend as much time with my wife as possible without driving her crazy.

Exercise and healthy eating is always a good combo...plus a lot of prayer helps...good job in recognizing your concerns and acting on them...try ArmyFit it worked wonders for me!

Agreed. I get the ArmyFit emails at work as well as subscribing to different email lists such as Mens Health and Livestrong. I try to vary and keep work outs interesting as well so I don't become bored with a routine.
