ANY MOM IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WHO WOULD LIKE TO GET TOGETHER ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, AND FOR ANY REASON.
Hi everyone, I changed my picture again if you didn't recognize me. My son is coming home form Thanksgiving and I'm SO excited, I took the whole week off so I'd be ready and can spend every possible minute iwth him (have to share some you know.)

Bea, in answer to your question about PIR. Sit at the top of the lower level bleachers, this gives you back support (and you don't have someone breathing down your neck). Several people have suggested to sit to the left of the division number sign...
Nancy, I am posting this here because you may not have gotten my pm. We will be having Thanksgiving in San Jose (Alum Rock and 680). If you like us to bring you Thanksgiving dinner, please let me know. it will be no trouble at all.
Mich and Kathy A are both going to PIR next week. Somewhere I read a post about where to sit (something about last row of first level and left of some sign) and prearranged special signal to let their sailor know where in the stand the LOs are loc...
Hey! Meilin! Are you lurking out there somewhere? I'm sure I speak for all when I say your absence has been noticed- well, I noticed. Too busy studying? How's Mom doing? Does she need me to come sit with her?
Time to get started on Saturday's cho...
Donnamc, I know how you feel. Enjoy your time this holiday season with your son and his family. I went 3 years without my son being home for the holidays so every second counts when they are home.
Hello everyone. I know its been a while, but I do read (catch up) on my computer. My son Jake has taken a family "working" leave, to get his new wife situated with military life, ID, looking to move to a better appartment with her son. He is still...

- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- The best way to cope is to support him and pray for him, because he needs to know that his family is supportive. Being a N4M member also helps a lot. My belief in God and His plan for Nathan's life also helps to keep everything in perspective.

HEEEEELP!!! MY DAUGHTER IS ABOUT TO JOIN THE AIR FORCE!!!!!
OK, moms, I need help. I am used to looking for help regarding Navy issues because my son is in the Navy. Now, my last child, the youngest of them all (three of them, and my oldest daughter is married), and THE ONE WHO IS GOING TO LEAVE THE NEST EMPTY, wants to join the Air Force, and I have no clue how I should help her make the right choices. She needed only a Math class to get her AA degree, and the Recruiter said she would go in as an E-3. However, she has no clue what kind of job she would… Continue

About to reach 9,000... and about to LOSE Catherine, the n4m admin.?!?!?!?!
I was hoping Catherine would stay with us until our sons and daughters retire from the Navy... It never crossed my mind that she would leave, let alone before we reach ten thousand. She will not even wait until December 31st!
I know this is selfish, and the truth is, Catherine deserves the best!
Full speed ahead, Catherine! Follow your dreams!, We will remember you when we reach 9,000 and 10,000, and beyond... (we may reach 9,000 tomorrow, your last day. If we do, that's a tribute to you.)

- Dear Heloisa,
I had sent a couple of suggestions to Elle on making a group's page (for any group) more efficient. She thought they were good ideas and suggested adding me as the Admin for Northern California Navy Moms Group. This is strictly temporary.There will be no changes to the appearance, name or starter of the group. I don't intend to moderate comments. You are the only one who should do that since you are the starter (by default moderator).
I would be creating a category "OUR EVENTS" to put the 1) master calendar of meet & greets for next year 2) Summary of the Events with links to RSVP and 3) guideline to organizing/hosting an event and 4) Protocol if a recruiter or other Navy personnel comes as guest (s) - Jody G provided me with some guidelines.
Since your response to my inquiry about the word change on the group's page, I had sent you a number of messages, include a friend request but I had not heard from you. Someone had mentioned they you were going back to school and was extremely busy. When you are done and would like resume being the admin, I will be pleased to step back.
When my son started in the Navy, N4M did not exist. I just did the best I could by myself. After I joined N4M and discovered the North Calif group, I realized there were many going through what I had gone through. Because of the way things are set up, there are no notifications going to a new member about each of the groups. I went on an individual campaign to search out N4M members who were unaware of the North Calif group and to send invitations to join the group. I started that in August. Since then, we have had an increase of 80 members from 110 to 190. My business has been slow this year, so I have time to help out. Next year, I hope the economy improves and I am signing up to get my RE Broker's license next year and will be less active anyway.
Regards, Bea.

Susan Kopp said… - Oh gosh, I feel badly that I did not respond. Things have been a bit busy. I had a cold, then training for my church work. The M&G was very nice. She worked very hard - and had quite a wonderful display of food. Lots of folks from all over. Hopefully in the future we can get together. How are things for you?

CCR said… - WEll, congratulations on ya'lls decision! Jorge has been back 3 times without me- to Sete Lagoas, Maraba, Belo Horizonte, Rio and Sapucaia. WE live in a small town and both had good jobs ten years ago, but now he drives 3 1/2 hrs to Beaumont to work and I havn't had work in 2 yrs. If it was within our means, I would be going with him to Brazil each time! But we do have some land here and I raise Appaloosas - my dream, so.. there is some trade off! Jorge just said he's gonna do that too - stay there 6 months. LOL

- I just visited with my brother who was in for 20 years. If Nathan does stay, he can expect great benefits and life-long privileges. I listen to my brother telling me everything he qualifies for, gets discounts, etc. and I am AMAZED!!!

- There is nothing like a call from the ship. Patrick is stationed in Yokosuka, but just left Malaysia. My friend Millye has a daughter on the GW. I believe she's a meteorologist. Her daughter was in A school with Patrick in GL summer 08.

- Good luck on your tests, you've probably passed them by now with flying colors. Mine is loving his ship - has an admiral aboard. Everything has to be tip top, if ya know what I mean. I know you're proud of Nathan, maybe its too crowded cuz he's tall! LOL Patrick's 6'4" and he hasn't said anything about that, just that he is in his work space, goes to eat and goes back to work, He says no time to stroll the deck saying hi to people and such.

- Hi back: WOW! You have been busy. I hope that everybody is okay now. What type of surgery? Mine had three stints put into his heart over a year ago. It sure puts a new perspective on things. The M&G was wonderful - small an dsimple. Gave us lots of time to visit which was awesome. Maybe next time. I do think that I am a bit too far north east for everyone. I'm going to try to work with the local recruiter's to let them know about us. Are you going to Bea's on the 25th?

- Good morning. Bom dia! Havn't heard from you in a very long time. did you know our friend Joyce took very good care of Patrick on his stop off from San Diego to Deep East TX? Yes, she is a doll!
Hope Nathan is loving his life! Patricks on the USS Blue Ridge now. Take care, have a wonderful week-end.

- Hi Heloisa/N's mom: I hope that you are doing okay. Are you still up to coming to Nevada City this Sunday? I am not sure where you are coming from, and if it is quite a drive for you I wanted to double check. We only have four that have said YES - and I'm good with that - but want to double check. Please let me know. Thanks, Susan

- Heloisa,
Would it be possible for you to change the sub title for this discussion? It still ask if anyone is interested in a BBQ in Hayward. I have started a discussion with info for an impromptu luncheon on August 8, 2009. It would be nice if the sub title could reference this. Thanks.
