Hi all my sister Navy Moms. Welcome to Kimberly and JC's Mom. You'll love the group.
We will be going to Longview on Dec 4 or 5th. Keep us posted on the next meet-n-greet. I don't know how things are going to come about as far as plans, but would...
Wow Chris, what an admirable thing to do and what a choice to make. How long until you graduate? I wish you lots of luck. I have a friend who has 2 sons & two daughters. Her oldest daughter and youngest son are both deaf and very intelligent. They...
Rene, they keep threatening us with the "s" word too. I hope it waits. Then maybe it should do it now and get it over with. We'd like to make a trip to Denver in Jan. (maybe) to see our son in Denver. Everything depends on when our sailor comes up...
Thank you, Doug's mom!
I'm doing great, Mary. Could be a bit warmer, but can't control that! Glad that you are enjoying school. What are you studying? I know you've told us, but there's so much to remember!
That's so funny, Anna.
Enjoy your day, everyone!
Anna, it sounds like you're enjoying the sights. That's great. I love Seattle. The rain just comes with the territory. I enjoy visiting the area occasionally, just for fun. Give your daughter a hug for me!
Mary, Ditto!
Hi Susan. How are you tonight? Have you heard from Niko? I heard from Richard today. He e-mailed me to find out what size clothes his wife wears. LOL It's a good thing that she, her sister & mom went shopping on Thursday. I was able to get the inf...
Dear friends, there is a young man named Andy, age 19, who is on life support. The doctors say he's not going to live without it. His mom was going to take him off and let go, but it was too hard for her. This family needs prayers. I know that And...
Welcome Arwen. I'm impressed with your family. Thank you for your service. Each of you.
Anna, I'm so glad that your stay in Washington so far has been good. Sure wish I could have come over, but circumstances wouldn't permit.
I'm gonna run for n...
Hi everybody, hope all is well. It's good to see that all of us can respect each other's opinion without taking or intentionally giving offense. It is good to have a safe place to voice our opinions and get answers to our questions and fears witho...
Dear Just A Spouse,
First, You are NOT just a spouse. This mom is so thankful for you spouses. Thank you for supporting your sailor.
Next, thank you so much for your message! My son and his wife are very concerned about some things that are said...
In this world of terror and trials we must remember to count our blessings. I've been spending as much time as possible with my family, embracing them and being grateful. I hope all of you are doing well. God bless each of you.
Love to ALL, Charla
Welcome to the new sailors' families! The WA/OR group is great! I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you.
Anna, It doesn't look like I'm going to be able to meet you in person, but hope you'll keep in touch and really hope that you'll en...
I just heard that one of the soldiers he shot was pregnant. That should bring his murder charges up to 13. I almost feel sorry for him when he meets his maker...almost, but not quite. He has hurt too many. These are definitely the last days. I pra...
Profile Information
- About me:
- I am the daughter of a sailor so when Rich told me that he wanted to join the Army I asked him to examine all of the military services. He did and chose the Navy. Richard is the youngest of 5 children and the only one to join the Navy. My oldest is a widow of 10 months with 4 children.
My husband, of nearly 10 years, is from the UK and at the time Rich enlisted was not a US citizen so Rich had to go into PS. He had been in the Navy for about 4 years now and is in training in Virginia for his 1st choice. He graduated from "A" school on 2-13-09 and will soon start "C" school.
We are a very close family and call each other almost everyday. I miss them all very much, but am very pleased with their successes and great choices.
- I am here to support or represent my:
- Child/Stepchild
- Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
- Enlisted
- When I heard “Navy,” I:
- Was proud and encouraged it
- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- It's so hard to let go especially since Richard is my youngest and lives so far away.
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Gifts for Nimitz Ladies
Ms. Hanks,
I have finally heard back from the legal department on the ship and as generous an offer as this is, we can't accept it because it could be seen as discriminatory based on gender. Thank you so much for thinking of our sailors, but any gifts to the ship have to be for all sailors. If you have any other questions please feel free to email us.
Respectfully,
Kathy Meitl

- Dear Charla,
You didn't go out to eat at least for your birthday? I love my lobster dinners! HAHA!
SO how is your Sailor doing? That's always so nice to hear from them.
I have nightmares of serial killers with knives. Lovely dreams. I don't even watch movies like that. I don't like slasher movies at all.
You know I dream of Rachel, a few times already, I have.
On occassion I dream of one of the wrestlers. That's funny, they're always friends in my dreams, that what I call them. I watch wrestling every Monday night. HAHA!
I actually slept all day. I only got up to eat. Doug had the computer all day and night. Darlene watched four foot ball games. I got out of bed at 6 PM.
I want to find something to do on the weekends, but I'm so limited. As for volunteering somewhere, I can't do much, Then the traveling scares me, when I get off the bus. Even with my cane, I walk like I'm drunk.
Let me get going. STay well.
Take care and God bless,
Love,
Barbara

- Dear Charla,
I'm so bored of vampires, I'm vampired out! HAHA! For years, Kim read books on them and wrote poems about them. I was her proof reader. She made my toes curl, she was so graphic! UGH! She did get an award and even one peom got published, as graphic as it was! UGH!
You need to place update pictures of Carina on your page! HAHA!! How much does she weigh now?
You have kittens, good luck finding them homes. Years ago, I had a dog that had puppies. I was with her when she gave birth, 7 of them.. They were adorable, but oh they destroyed the house!! HAHA! I lucked out finding them homes.
I wouldn't have patience to fuss over long hair. My two dogs are short hair, one's a pug, and the puppy is a puggles, pug and beagel mix. Rosa's dog is a maltese, her fur is so badly matted. Ahe the dog is white, but she always has a dirty face, she doesn't get bathed that often.
Rosa just called, a neighbor of mine, who David is friends with, just got arrested on a drug bust. So Rosa called and told David to stay home. The cops did see David with this guy Maurisicio, David said he ran He's lucky the cops didn't chase after him. I told David you look quilty if you run. I've told him that for many years, he never listens.
Okay, I have a short term memory, I need a refresher course! HAHA! Which one is Logan and who is Mark.? I know one of them is your husband!! HAHA!
Let me get going. Stay well.
Take care and God bless,
Love,
Barbara

- Dear Charla,
You're into the Twilight too!! HAHA! Have you read all the books yet? Darlene and Kim are on the second book, New Moon. Every one says this one is so boring. Darlene saw the trailer for the movie, coming in November, it looks good.
I saw the movie several times, not by by choice.! HAHA! It's good, but, I think Belle and Edward, forget the fact she's a mortal and he's a vampire, they are way too serious. They don't act normal, no smiling, laughing, nothing in common....boring!! How can either one be attracted to one another?
And what are they a new breed of vampires, they crystalize in the sun!! HAHA! Must be becaue they're vegetarians!! HAHA!! That's original!! HAHAH!,
Oh what I say, when I can't get my kids to help me clean or do anything, "I don't see any wheelcahirs around" HAHA!
Darlene and Bernie are watching the movie, Marley and me. You ever see that movie? It's a tear jerker.
Darlene wants to see that new movie, Paranormal Activity. I bet it's a flop, just a couple of jumping scenes. We'll find out when she goes! AHAH!
Let me get going.
Stay well. That's great you didn't need any medication, God willing today will be the same.
Take care and God bless,
Love,
Barbara

- Hi Charla,
The flag is called Blue Star and yes it is flown for deployment. I keep mine up since we still have family and neighbors in the sandpit. Its an interesting story behind it but don't want to give it wrong so will look it up. Sadly if you see a flag with a Gold Star, that family has someone who made the ultimate sacrifice. May none of us have to change that Star.
You can order from www.serviceflags.com. I have gotten lapel pins from them, they have a neat one with the service emblem and both the American and BlueStar Flag.
I see you're from Washington, we llived in Olympia 79-82 and absolutely loved it. Where is Outlook?
Thanks for stopping by, will catch you later,
Kelly
