Jackie, I wanted to make a comment about people in Washington being not very supportive of the military. I live in Washington and my son is also in the Navy and we in Washington are very supportive of all the troops. There have been some bad press...

Ohmigosh and whut the hecks?? Casey got married?? Married?? Wow. Was that something that was sorta on the table or just out of the blue? It sounds like she's a local girl - which is good, soo soo good. I'm so happy they'll be living close by. What a lucky treat for you. My own Sailor is stationed over at Bangor in Kitsap and she is only a 2 hour drive from home. So I completely understand what a relief it is to have your Sailor nearby. I often think of our old PIR buddies who haven't seen their kids in many months while I see mine nearly every other weekend. It's almost like she isn't in the Navy, just moved across the water. Wowwwwww. Married AND close to home for the next two years. That's great. When does he report to the Lincoln?? I have a friend who is one of the Ombudsmans, you can find her on here as "quadmommy" (yep, mom of 4 adorablly rambunctious boyz) if you have any questions. Speaking of questions, I'm full of them so spill it with all the details pretty please. Now I'm off to do a joyful dance at your good fortune! YAY!

Hi Lorrie,

I hope all your holiday's where wonderful! Did Casey come home for Christmas? I thought Joey told me that he left before him for the holidays. It's been so long since I've been on this website. Anything new and exciting?
I'm hoping to go to Pensacola either in a few weeks or the second week of
February. It was absolutely wonderful having Joey home for the Christmas holiday even though he seemed to spend most of his time at his friends. He left for Pensacola on New Year's eve and boy did I have withdrawls again. It was horrible seeing him go again. Please let me know how you are doing? I know that Joey was taking his mitt and balls to play catch with Correy.
Talk to you soon.

Hi Lorrie! My Sailor is loving A school and SA! She has entered Phase 2 and is permitted to wear civvie clothes and have off base liberty. Her A school is pretty fast paced and she'll be graduated by the first week of Feb09...or so, it's the Navy's time sched not mine. lol. She's going in the hole to get home for Christmas and she wont have enough time to make the days up before graduation so she wont be able to come home before her first duty station - but I'm trying not to worry about that. Not yet anyway. She phoned me yesterday (at 0430) to tell me she had picked her duty station and was excited that she got her number 1 spot - Bangor, Wa! Now, until I see the hard copies I wont believe it, but there is a chance -albeit a small chance- she might get stationed in our state. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I konw she wants to see the world and have some adventure, but I think close to home would be a good first duty station. Besides Japan isn't going anywhere, it'll still be there in 2 years. lol.

What luck that Casey is on hold in Pensecola - I've heard of Sailors stuck in Great Lakes. I can't even imagine a cold that cold. Brrr. Does Casey get to phase up even though he hasn't started school yet??

Oh Lorrie, you are so lucky. I have been having Sailor withdrawl since we left her and have been more than a little mopey. I know she's as happy as a pig in the mud and so excited to finally get to A school, but still I miss her. Much like your son I can't believe the difference in her, really like night and day. Bootcamp was amazing for that part and I'd almost advise most teens could use a good bootcamp experience (except not the whole no communication thing) Did Casey have you hold your arm and open all the doors for you, too??

Please let me know how Casey likes Florida. My Sailor is in Texas and she said it's "warm", but shoot after getting a taste of GL in November I think *here* is warm. lol

Hi Lorrie, Tate went in on 9/24. I have all my reservations made. When are you leaving? We are taking a shuttle to & from the airport but we are going to rent a car after we get to the hotel. We are staying at the Navy Lodge. Tate hasnt said much to me about anything. Just being really busy in the 901 div. I miss him so much.

Yay! You're to PIR, right? When? Where are you staying? I'm going 19th-23rd, staying at Quality Inn. Are you going to Flanagan's the night before PIR? I can't believe my son has written such wonderful letters! He was rotten before he left! -Karen

Hi Lorrie,

In Joey's letter from Sunday, November 2nd, he said that they were starting live firearms tomorrow with a 9mm and 12 gage shot gun, he was very excited about that... He did say that they won another flag, so they were hopeful that they would get a call home this week. He also said that the male RDC (Chief) was great, but the female RDC second in command was horrible. I'm getting so anxious, but I've been busy. I sent Joey a letter asking what he needs to take to Pensacola for A School. I know the kids wear civilian clothes on the weekends and I've packed socks, t-shirts, boxers (he's going to love that part) shaving items, he has all of his stuff is at home, so why buy additional undergarments at the NEX when he arrives. Oh, it's getting so close and I'm so excited to see my son.

How are you doing?

Carmina
