My son has grown up and making adult decisions now and I have to let go a little but Im sure our relationship will be stronger.

HI NANCY,

YES IT IS NICE TO FIND PEOPLE IN THE SAME AREA. WHEN I SAW THER WAS SO MANY PEOPLE ON THIS SITE AND FROM WHAT I SEE NO WAY TO NARROW IT DOWN BY REGION I THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE FOREVER TO FIND LOCALS.
TIMMY IS ON MOBILE SECURITY FORCES. THEY SEARCH AL THE VESSLES INTO IRAQ. HE DOES GET TO GO TO KUWAIT FOR 6 DAYS OF R AND R. I THINK HE LEAVES MONDAY. I HAVE TRIED REACHING HIM FOR THE LAST 2 DAYS ON SKYPE BUT HE DOESN'T ANSWER. I KNOW HE WAS OUT ON A BOAT FOR THE PAST WEEK BUT SHOULD HAVE BEEN BACK YESTERDAY. HE SAYS ITS LIKE GROUND HOG DAY THERE. THE SAME THING EVERYDAY, THE SAME PEOPLE EVERYDAY ETC. SO I HOPE HE HAS A GOOD FEW DAYS AWAY IN KUWAIT.
HOW DOES BRIAN LIKE TEXAS? IS HE HAPPY WITH THE VOCATION HE PICKED? WHEN DOES HE GRADUATE FROM A SCHOOL?
DID YOUR FAMILY GO TO CHICAGO WHEN HE GRADUATED FROM BOOT CAMP? I WAS THERE 2 YRS IN A ROW. MY DAUGHTER IN LAW GRADUATED IN JULY 05 AND MY SON JULY OF 06. MY DUAGHER IN LAW IS STATIONED AT A HOSPITAL IN GERMAY. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME (I HAVE IT WRITTEN DOWN AT WORK) BUT IT IS THE HOSPITAL THEY TAKE THE MILITARY PEOPLE INJURED IN IRAQ.
WELL I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN SOON.

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND,
JANICE

I just love all your pics!!! I really have to put up some of my own now that Im not working as much. I talked to Brian and told him Heathers name - He mentioned that he was at a school doing some volunteer work paining etc. Hes having problems with the cell phone as we got him a good verizoncamera phone as a gift , them we find out that its way too expensive to talk ( but we dont care too much til the 1st bill comes lol. So my husband goes to a sprint store cause we hear its free roaming charges but the phone he gets is Nex-Tel which they are in the process of switching over to. So he mails back that phone and we mail him anotjer REAL SPRINT phone. Brians also waiting for his sign on bonus to come through so he can get a car. Did Heather get hers yet?
My dog came out of her surgery good yesterday and shes back to getting spoiled again :-)
What types of dogs do you have? I noticed a dauchand in on of the pics. My husbands aunt used to breed and show the mini version. All we have are 5 lab/shep mixes
Well Im going to go now , we have to plan for my daughters grad party.

Heather is going to the beach today-I just talked to her about an hour ago.Another thing we do is messenger-then all I do is minimize it and then if I'm on it will flash when she gets on and we start writing our conversation.LIke in the morning I get up and say Good Morning. When I go to bed I tell her good night. My husband just got some of the web cam. We are going to get it hooked up. We have to send her the other half of it.I hope they find each other- I think that would be cool. When you look at my pic's then you see what she looks like. Tell Brian that she small built. Talk to you later.

How is Brian doing? I asked Heather if she knew him. She hasn't reply back yet. I have downloaded some new pic's.What have been up too? My youngest is in NY this week.Of course taking lots of pic's. I thought I would check on you.

Heather protrols the base, or she is at the gate. I told her about your son being there andI would let her know his name then she can look for him,or if your son looks for her the last name is McClure-which in the Navy it's more by last name.That would be cool. Hey our mom's met by internet( ha-ha). I am in the process of downloading more pictures to the sight.
