EXPERIENCE IS WHAT YOU GET, WHEN YOU DIDN'T GET WHAT YOU WANTED
Profile Information
- About me:
- I'm a single mom with 3 boys. Cory, my youngest had PIR from bootcamp 7/18/08. The house feels really empty...I'm starting to get used to it. I'm a nurse, I grew up an Air Force Brat. I miss my son, but I am so very proud of the adult he has become.
- I am here to support or represent my:
- Son/Daughter
- 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:
- I'm JUST NOW learning patience. It was 3 weeks before I received my 1st real letter. I'm very used to contacting my kids whenever I feel like it...through a phone call, text, or email. This waiting to hear from him was a real trial for me. But he seems to be doing fine and I'm learning to wait, He will be the one who initiates contact...not me!
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Storewide meeting this morning (so we're all on the same page for the holidays) then I'm working ALL day . . . the hardest thing about my 'job' is that I no longer have a good sense of a 'work week' . . . what day is it anyway?!?! LOL:)!
Hope you have a GREAT day . . . enjoy the minute or two that you'll get with Cory:)! GIANT HUGS:)!
Sorry, I can't go. I have so much to do before I leave for South Carolina next week.
Have fun with Staci and everyone else.

Packing anything for sailors is a PACKING PARTY...whether its 1 or 10 Navy moms or people.....So cool indeed my dear!
I'm glad you'll get to see Cory, even if his timing isn't the best:)!
I miss you and am looking forward to next weekend:)! GIANT HUGS to you BFFF:)!
I see your on-line now. Just wanted to drop you a quick note and say hello. Thanks for all the positive comments about me and the new job. Things are going very well for me there. I've already been promoted into a new position. I do have the lady who left to thank for that though. I have my 30 day review on Monday and will learn then as to what my pay increase will be.
I noticed the postings in the AZ group about interests in meeting in northern AZ. I would like to host another event, but figured it best that I wait until Spring. We never know when the snow's going to fly around here and that could keep people from wanting to come, I think. This weather's crazy though... Wed. last week we had snow falling, but never stuck to the ground. And, this week our temps have been unseasonably warm.
How's Cory doing? Do you think he'll make it home for Christmas? Billy's hoping to make it for a couple of days around the holiday. He's on his ship now and will have to plan his leave around his duty schedule.
Hope all is well with you!!
