It has been a fast and furious year! Miss Ricky but I will tell you, I am now starting to enjoy an empty house....although, really do miss him but not the teen angst. :-)
Maybe down the road I can plan on a Hawaii vacation with Ricky. Geeze, even Hong Kong is less expensive than Japan!

OOoh, sounds so awesome to have Christmas plans with Danielle coming home. I can't even imagine when I will get a visit and my visiting Japan doesn't appear possible. My goodness, it is so expensive!
Will send any more shots I find of Danielle. Ricky had a few more publishd recently online by the Navy and they are wonderful!

Kathy: Found this awesome pic of Danielle....
Hope all is good with you and your family. Ricky just celebrated his 20th birthday with his first visit to Tokyo and Yokosuka!
He is very happy and well and taking pictures every which way!

Hi there. It was so great as you know. They were allowed to participate in graduation, Thank God! There were 21 kids that did not pass battlestations so when Ashley called me she said they were told they might not be able to participate because there were so few that did. Most passed the second time. There division was not good at all. They did not get along from the beginning and never learned too. Ashley was so disgusted with them but she is almost 22. We had a beautiful 2 days with her though it was heart wrenching saying goodbye knowing she would be leaving so soon for so far away. She is going to where your daughter is just before Christmas :( to the USS George Wshington. She will be able to spend 10-14 days with us the beginning of December but will not be with us for Thanksgiving, Christmas or her birthday 12/30. She has tons of questions about Japan like what kind of cell phone should she get, what kind of laptop, web cam, etc. I told her I would find out all I could from you since you have been such a great source to me from the beginning. I shared the pictures you have of your daughter in Japan in our hotel room so she could see what life in Japan looked like. Also, get this the guy I told you about came, couldnt get in because he didnt have ID (loser) (yeah for us) but she did see him today and just called me and said she told him it just isnt there for her that she has changed and has a whole new life ahead of her that he doesnt fit into, YEAH!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for everything. GiGi

thank you. will she be able to keep any of those with her prior to leaving for pensacola?

if I give her a camera, watch, or portfolio will they let her keep it with her until she leaves for Florida? She will go through BS on Tuesday so I will be waiting for that call on Wednesday. I have a hair apt on Weds at 3:45 so hopefully the call wont come then. I will be sure to keep you updated on her.

I cannot believe it. I just spent about 20 minutes typing to you and then I lost it. I will try to remember and be brief with what I said. First of all thank you. thank you from the bottom of my heart for reaching out to a stranger and helping her through and stressful, emotional time. You were very helpful to me and I hope I can do the same for someone else someday going through this. Well, we have 5 more days and then this chapter of Navy life will be over, yeah! This has had too many downs for my daughter and I hope the next part in Florida does not. I do not like girls setting up girls, I do not like the mental and emotional stress she has gone through at all. I hope this will make her a better person instead of a bitter person. I do have a couple final questions regarding bootcamp graduation. Is there anything we can give her as a gift on that day? Someone suggested a watch. And, is there anything you would recommend to do while we are together? We will be leaving Wednesday evening, arriving at the Red Carpet early evening Thursday then leaving to return again on Saturday evening. Thank you again and I hope your daughter is well.

I see my daughter in law had contact with you, she is tiger102774, I read your comments to her and was especially interested in the one about her auditioning. My granddaughter says her recruiter will be taking her to audition soon either in DC or Anapolis. She is so excited, but says if she doesnt pass the audition she will still join the navy she is determined. BUT,you mentioned 900 what does that mean? I would info on basic, A school etc. I am nervous but verrrrry proud of her

I didn't realize there is a graduation at the school of music. I hope we can attend. I still haven't quite come down to earth. What an emotional ceremony!!!! I can't wait to get the DVD and photos.
Elizabeth is driving to Little Creek either Wednesday or Thursday of this week. She has already been there and all of their belongings are moved in, compliments of her dad, brother and my older son Aaron. She and her BF stayed for several days and settled the place prior to Galen's PIR.
She is leaving GL tomorrow AM to drive back to Norvelt, south of Pittsburgh. She and her best friend will drive to Little Creek with the two cats and any other odds and ends. Oh, to be that young and energetic!
