- Hi, Elaine--guess who I just talked to on the phone! Derek! My daughter was passing him on the pier and she handed the phone to him. He told me he got a place to live at the brand-new base apartments. My daughter told me they are very nice and even have their own pool. I was going to tell her that Derek was still looking, but he said he found a great one. Woohoo!

- Elaine--my daughter has been sharing an apartment with her best friend (a guy) and he may be looking for a roommate since she is leaving the Navy sometime between mid August and mid September. I'll have her ask him if he's got someone lined up already or not. They have someone staying at the place while they've been deployed so not sure if that person is taking her place or not. The apartment is about 10 minutes, has gated access to the complex and is in a nice neighborhood.

Beth said… - Oh Elaine, I am sooooo happy for you that Derek called. That gives me hope that the restriction will be lifted soon, and I will get that oh so wonderful name in my inbox of my email!
Thank you for your kind words to me. I was just really having a bad day yesterday, and there were a few people that decided to give me a little push to make it worse. Today is a better day. :)
I think I just need to take a little break from all the boards, get my head and heart together.

- Well, she found Derek!
"Found him in the MA shack, his name’s Derek. Still haven’t found Tara but yeah. Derek was pretty funny, I asked him if his mom was on this Boxer Mom’s website and he goes “Yeah, she talks about it all the time” and I go “Yeah, mine too, she even sent me pics of you” lol. It was funny."
