About me:
Married for 25 years, mother of two sons. Both want to serve, one as a school teacher, one in the Navy - I am EXTREMELY proud of them both!
My son/daughter is:
Enlisted
I was the proudest of my child when:
I am proud of both my sons - each and every day!
As a new Navy mom, the most important thing I learned was:
I'm still trying to learn how to 'back off'!
Knowledge is power!
And you can never have too much of a good thing - whether it's chocolate or love:)!
My son/daughter is currently in the service or retired, and now I believe:
Our relationship has grown stronger
I want to thank all you helpful and kind people for providing me a place where I can share thoughts, feelings and fun . . . NFM rocks:)!

Here is the link for the Navy Crocs . . . aren't they just a HOOT:)!

Arizona Get-Together . . . (or I get to meet my 'imaginary' friends!)

I had an extremely stressful and tiring week last week, too much work, too little sleep, by Friday I am READY for the weekend. Of course, I have been looking forward to our potluck gathering for weeks, and I haven't BEEN AT ALL EXCITED!!!!!! On Wednesday, my son (and 138 of his closest friends) were flying from Chicago to San Diego to begin their next step of schooling. So when my husband calls me at work and says "This guy from the Navy called and NEEDS to talk to you, here's his number" you (a… Continue

Another BEAUTIFUL day . . .

Good Morning Everyone, I had a not-so-good day yesterday . . . well, to tell the truth - I was a "witch" - I was tired, crabby, hot (yes it was officially 103, but actually 106) and I really don't think that ANYONE enjoyed being around me . . . I knew that my 'mood' would pass and today would be a better day. So this morning I walk outside to get the paper from my driveway and see . . .

Counting my blessings . . .

It is ANOTHER beautiful day here in Tucson and I just need to say how grateful I am for all God has given me. I have two FABULOUS sons who make me proud all day, every day. I have a WONDERFUL husband who I'm still madly in love with more than a quarter of a century after I first fell in love with him. I have a job which pays the bills and one that's just for fun. I have a car without a roof which I drive with a smile, and others which have roofs for the few days a year that it rains. I have two… Continue

Just like we can't believe Kimberly - don't believe everything Colleen says about me (unless of course it is good)!!!
Yes, they did used to lock me in a closet - that is probbly why I am sooo claustrophobic now - I even crawled out of the PET scan last year!! OH - that nurse was mad at me!!!

Happy 4th of July to you. I need to hang out with Navy for Moms, you look like you have a lot of fun. Looks like my space for moms. lol. Arizona sounds like a cool place to go except for the rain. My mom says it's very hot & doesnt know if she will be able to stand the heat. My aunt and uncle live near Las Vegas and it's hot there too. Don''t tell my mom about another trip because she'll want to go to. She's always traveling pssh. I have been here 6 months and haven't seen much rain so I don't know when it rains a lot. My friend is stationed in San Diego on the Nimitz and I think my mom is visitiing him on the way back from Phoenix. she probably only wants him to take her to the NEX lol. What is your sons rate? San Diego was my second choice & might request it after when I leave here. Your son is lucky to have you for a mom. Ash

I hope you are having a great 4th! I just don't feel like going out tonight, so we are hanging with the dog, reassuring him that the fireworks won't "hurt" him. He's shaking every time he hears a "POP". My husband cranked the music up so he can't hear, but now WE can't hear anything either!!

Poor, poor Brenda: @about Brenda:
Yeah, we were mean to her, poor baby. But I remember once when Mom was going to 'whup' all four of us because she didn't know the one who'd "done" wrong and I told Mom I did it so that she would not spank Brenda Sue and Rusty. (I didn't care if she spanked Carol) lol.
Nice to 'meet' you all and if I can be of any help, let me know! I could sew anything small you suggest that would be suitable for a sailor (Brenda Sue sews beautifully, I go for speed and quantity so mine is not all that great) but! functional...

It sure is!! She even paid her way to Chicago for his PIR so I would not have to go alone!!
I am soooo jealous of the people who are worried about getting more than 4 into the ceremony. I thought it was just going to be ME!!!
