I can pick him up if you tell him to be ready at around 11:30--tell him 11:30 so that way when I get him around 12 he'll be ready. I wonder what electrical stimulation is going to do? They must think it's a muscle if they're doing that?

I reserved a queen suite, it has two queens and a sofa bed. If Cody doesn't get overnight liberty then we can just share the room. It was like $100 a night so it would only be $50 a night. So don't worry about making reservations right now. Wes probably won't like it because it's non-smoking. He'll get over it.

It just depends, but most don't get to PIR once they miss the original one. My Victoria, where she is now, she doesn't want to, she just wants to go to THU since they are Sailors at that point. He can if he gets put into another division, though. If he really wants to when it is time, see if he can strongly request it. Victoria didn't want to because she wasn't with her original teammates. Good luck. Susan

Hey I need to call the public affairs office there today to make sure I get the right address before I start writing again. I feel like we're back to square one again. I just wish I knew it would all be ok or at least have a date to plan for again. I guess I need to be patient--nothing has ever come easy for Cody, he just needs to work harder, it may take him longer but I know he can do it. It will be even more of a happy time when he does. I'm worried about being able to take off of work, I'm already scheduled up until after Christmas. I e-mailed Heather and told her what was going on--hopefully they'll work with me on a short notice when I find out--which may be a few days before he actually graduates.

Make sure and cancel your reservations. I called to cancel mine and they didn't even have me reserved! I could have sworn I got a confirmation e-mail but I searched through my e-mail and couldn't find one. We would have had to shack up with you and mom had we gotten there and there were no rooms. Will you be able to take off again if it's a short notice? What if it happens to fall on the one for Christmas Eve? We've decided if that's the case we would take the little kids with us too and just make a Christmas vacation out of it. I wouldn't want to be away from them during Christmas.

Have you been writing him? If it makes you feel better my letter was only half a page--but that's OK, as long as I know he's doing fine it doesn't matter how long it is. Plus he probably knows I'm going to tell you everything he wrote anyway. He'll probably have more in his letter next week since they're doing more things now maybe he'll have more to talk about? I struggle trying to find things to talk about in my letters--really goes to show me how lack-luster my life is.haha!

I think she's just a friend? He sounds like he's really changing. I'm so happy! Hey will you go to www.cafepress.com and search for Navy Grandma and have mom pick out a design for her sweatshirt for her birthday. There are too many to choose from and I know how picky she is.

I think it's gone away now. Boy was that super scary!

I talked with Bill tonight--he's supposed to write a letter and bring it by tomorrow for me to mail off. I asked him why he hasn't wrote to him, he said well he just needs his mother to write. I'm like what kind of stupid answer is that!?! I told him he called on Saturday morning--he didn't even seem to care that he missed the call. I swear he's such a "insert bad word here"! Anyway I may need you to be my nurse, I have something growing in my right butt crack/cheek. It's like a overgrown pimple--but it's big and hard. I've been taking Bactrim--I brought some stuff from work to drain it if it needs it. I felt it tonight after work and it seems to have gone down some, so hopefully I won't have to drain it. I've never had anything like that before--the weird thing is I had a nightmare awhile back and I woke up with a nasty abscess on my butt. Well I woke up yesterday and there it was! I'm freaking the heck out about it!

Ya all he cares about is his next alcoholic beverage! He doesn't deserve to go to PIR as far as I'm concerned. Ya Shelly sang a couple of songs last night. It was funny--her and Jamie was singing and one of the dogs started howling.haha!

Oh and I just talked with Bill--he called for Kieley. I asked if he got a letter this past week and he said no. I said well I guess he's not going to keep writing you if you don't write to him--I told him I write to him almost everyday. He hasn't even sent one letter! Makes me soooo mad!!
