Tracy - the meet n greet is a definite go! We are all set for Saturday, Jan 23rd at Gordon Biersch restaurant at Market Common - with a block of rooms set aside at Spring Maid Pier Resort - $64 a night for ocean front room with a balcony.
All SC Mom…
One more thing - in my PIR Group of 10/16/09 - lots of moms talked about getting dressed up for PIR - please don't bother to do that! It is a lot of sitting and waiting - and I am sure in Dec or Jan it will be freezing! I wore jeans, t-shirt and swe…
Oh my - so much to identify with! I am realizing that I am so wrapped up in myself - as I heard someone share the other day "I'm not much, but I'm all I think about" and " the three most important people in my life - me, myself and I"! With Craig ju…
hippmom - praying for you and Nicholas! Scary - this whole military thing is sometimes so surrealistic - hard to believe we actually have children that are defending our country! How did those crazy little boys become these wonderful men?!? I read o…
Welcome Carolyn - hope your son is doing well. Of course, hearing about how gorgeous Monterey is from my son, Craig, I am sure he's happy as a clam! Craig has been there since October, cleaning, as his classes don't start until Jan. 7th. When does y…
Well - we all made it through Craig's procedure - him probably better than me! I was a mess! But he is recuperating in the dorm - don't know how long he will get SIQ - but hopefully long enough to mend thoroughly.
He comes home Dec 25th - can't wait!
So good to hear all your news about your recruits at boot - and SO glad that is behind me! Craig, too, had the crud the entire time at boot - he finally went to sick bay and was diagnosed with pneumonia, and he had a hernia - but never told anyone t…
Craig told me today that a friend of his will go with him to the out-pt center, and a duty drive will bring him and take him back to base. I am a bit anxious about this whole thing - just don't know how he will manage after the procedure when he is…
Thanks Karen for putting that post on for me-didn't know this group existed.
I live in Myrtle Beach, SC - 90 miles north of Charleston, SC - so if anyone has a sailor stationed in Charleston and wants their sailor to have a SC "Mom" - I'm your gal!
For those who wish to help those sailors in need when having to travel far from home or base! If you want to join the list, send me a friend Request. Then you can send along your information (name, location and phone number) in a private message.
Craig happy at DLI - still on cleaning duty - he was cleaning latrines when I talked to him last night - lol! He doesn't start class until Jan. 7th. He's coming home Dec. 25th-Jan. 1st - SO excited.
He has to have a surgical procedure Mon, the 14th-…
Ha ha - we so don't need the fire here in Myrtle Beach! It was 75 here today - felt like summer! Had to cut my work out at the gym short cause they are putting in new air conditioning system, so there was no a/c, and it was SO hot - I was sweating w…
OK - so far to RSVP for meet n greet:
Hippmom from Prosperity
Connie - where are you from?
Tracy from Columbia
and me - from Myrtle Beach
anyone else?
Date: Jan. 23rd, at Gordon Biersch Restaurant at the Market Common in Myrtle Beach, noon time. Als…
Cindy - I've been trying to send you a PM - but that part of the site is not working. Craig's procedure will be Dec. 14th - and I have called dr's office to see if he can spend the night rather than go back to base where there would be no one to mon…
Hello all - have had a whirlwind celebration this week-end - my 60th birthday! How in the world did that happen?!? My friend Erin told me any birthday that ends in zero you get to celebrate for a month.
WalMart has a relatively inexpensive photo stu…
We got our DVD two days ago, but I sent one to my sister in Massachusetts - and she got hers last week! Of course, work week is so hectic haven't even opened the package. Can't wait to see it - will watch it this week-end.
My 50-10 birthday is Monda…

Boot Camp Arrival
Just got home from the beach, and there was a message from my son - said he arrived at boot camp and the "box" of his stuff would be arriving soon!
I responded (or so I thought) to everyone who replied to my very first post - but I don't think I did it correctly and I don't think it got sent! I am so computer illiterate - have never been in a chat room or posted anything before!
Thanks to all who responded - and any tips on how to navigate around page would be great!

- Thank you for your note and the flowers! I posted that my son's been invisible this week and It's funny that my thoughts go from the worst to that my son's probably just enjoying his time before A school begins, hanging out with the guys and not thinking to call home and let us know what he's up to! I'll be checking with his recruiter today to see if I can find out at least where he's at. I notice you're in Myrtle Beach, beautiful area! My husband lived for years in SC, for a while he was in Lake City - not too far from your neck of the woods. It's a small world!
Thanks again, have a great day!

CTI Mom said… - Dear Sailor Craig's Mom, thanks for your kind note. Sound like Craig has a wonderful future ahead of him. Jared is also 24 and several years older than most of his class. Maybe our sons will cross paths one day. Jared's decision to join the Navy turned out to be the best decision he ever made. The Navy provides sailors the opportunity to work towards a college degree while at sea through the University of Maryland. He was able to get his associates and plans to continue. I wish Craig all the best and know he will do well. Keep in touch. Janet

Tina (SAILOR GAGE) said… - My nephews name is George, we call him Gator. He is an MM which means he works on refridgeration and air conditioning on a ship. He was in a motorcycle accident. He collided with a truck head on (not sure of details but they were coming around a bend) Due to severe blood loss they had no choice but to amputate just to stop blood loss and return blood pressure and save his life. They had to do it quickly and close. Today was the first time the surgeons could go in and clean up everything. If all goes well, they will transfer him to Jax (hometown) and continue care here near his family, but if things get complicated they they will stabilize and send him to California. So Prayers are all we can do!! Both for Gage and for the surgeons.

catnayl said… - 359 is not coed.I am glad to hear Aaron is not grad and go but that can change at the end.Is Craig grad and go?Aaron wants to go into Chicago and see the science museum.His Dad and I would like to go to the Navy pier.Plan to go to the Ramada Inn meet and greet Thursday night.Do you plan to go?I think I might wear pants if I climbing onto the bleachers and will have to check the weather forecast in case a coat is needed.I think Aaron might like the pool; reminding him of his high school swim team days in California.I thought Aaron would want to just chill out and sleep while we visited him but he wants to get out and explore.We will see if that changes when we arrive.Aaron told his Dad that they had just missed getting the Educ flag but have a chance to get it with a few to do retesting.Time is really flying by and before you know it grad will be here.The marriage of the couple after dating 12 years is remarkable and plus having a baby as a wedding present.How wonderful.You are multi talented with working in the healthcare field and performing marriage ceremonies.Here's hoping for more letters from our recruits.
