Hey Toni, wanted to let you know I had a good time in NYC and enjoyed your company. Are you able to send me your email address? It is easier for me to email people as I can't get on N4M's at work.

Hi Toni, glad to hear from you and know that all is ok. I don't need the money for the hotel now as they will not charge it to my account until that day besides I will be splitting the gas with you so we can figure that out when we are in SI. I am so looking forward to this. Glad you got to see Larry for Easter. That's great that he wasn't drinking and gave up cigarettes. I wish my son would give those up. He is out at sea right now. Don't hear much from him when they are sailing. I miss his nightly call. My daughter actually only passed an entrance test to get into the LPN program for September. It is an 18 month program. She did just pass her test to be recertified as a certified nurse assistant and is now looking for a job. I've been watching the babies a lot and trying to help her other ways including financially. My apron was a fundraiser done by someone who is on the Truman. I had to go to the Truman site and go to the fund raising page and order it, but they only have Truman stuff. I'm sure you should be able to find a Navy apron or a Navyformoms apron by doing a search. Keep in touch and have a good week. Do you have my cell phone # ? If not I will pm it to you.

Hey Toni, is all OK? Haven't heard from you in a while. I did leave a message on your cell phone on April 6th. See comment below for details. I got my apron from the USS Harry S Truman for the BBQ. I hope you and family had a good Easter. Call me or pm me or leave a comment. Have a good week.

Hi Toni, I left a message on your cell phone. I booked the hotel today and hope the arrangements are ok with you. Jason is finally getting housing so he doesn't always have to sleep on the ship now. He is hoping to move in today. He's been better since his ship has been sailing. He is back with his original division and finished with his TAD (temporary alternate duty). Things are still tough with Jen and babies, it is costing me lots of $ and time. She did pass the entrance exam to get into the LPN program and was happy about that. She has an interview for the program on the 17th of this month and she has a test to recertify herself for her certified nurse assistant certificate to get a job. The big problem is no income until she gets a job so I am supporting them and she gets a job. Ex-boyfriend is skipping out on court ordered child support. The other big problem is day care. It is so much money that is all she will be working for. I don't know what the answer is anymore. Well, I have off this week and told her that I want to get some of my own things done this week. Still have to do my taxes. Saturday my grandson turned two. We had a party at my daughter's apartment. I was in charge of the paper goods, goodie bags, games, and prizes. The theme was Disney's Pixar Cars. I made games and got prizes that went with the theme. It was fun. I even found Little Debbie red racing car brownies to go along with his "Cars" theme birthday cake for dessert. Well gotta run and get some things done. Hope to hear from you soon.

Toni, The Navy building is on Hempstead Tpke across the street from Home Depot. I did not know about Fleet Week in Staten Island. When is it? If my schedule allows me to go, can we go together?

Hi Toni, no I haven't booked the hotel yet, but want to as soon as possible. Work, daughter problems, son problems, all holding me up. This weekend I have my grandson's 2nd birthday and I am doing all the kiddie stuff such as games (and I have to make them as his theme is Disney cars and we want theme oriented games--good thing I teach young ones and this comes naturally), prizes, decorations, and goodie bags. Then I've been shopping for daughter, mother and me. Plus doing daughter and babies wash. I have off next week, although the week is booked up with things but will get a chance then to book a room. Can you believe I still have not done my taxes? I will be doing my daughter's at the same time and Jason's state taxes as he did federal for free on line but they want to charge for the state and he said it is too late to get the free services from the Navy as they have already done that. I guess overnight and all the running around and helping at the BBQ will be too much for Barbara. I told her to go and just coach you and me on while we serve those service men and women their food. I am excited, sounds like fun. Each event I get to meet some more new moms and revisit with those I've met. It's been fun. I'll let you know when I book the room. Any preferences? I was just going with the hotel most moms are staying at and trying to get the cheapest room. Sound good?
