PIR

Thank you Barb. I am new to all this. And not knowing anything makes everything just a little worse.

My son left 11/9. Can anyone tell me an approximate date for his PIR? I work 2 jobs and have to plan way ahead. So I would like to get some kind of ballpark. Thanks.

I have heard from mine and he seems to be doing great. His voice sounds so excited when he starts talking about the things that he is learning and doing. That just warms my heart that he seems happy with the decisions he has made for himself.

I hope so. Cause they sure are far and few between! He prolly has talked more in letters than he has in the last 2 years...lol. I knew one day he would come to appreciate his mama.

Good! I just wanted to check in and make sure. I know my first few weeks were tough. I kept reading over and over. No calls means it is going ok!

Carolyn I think that his plans are still to go to Charleston. I did not understand exactly what he was talking about and asked him to explain it to me in a letter. I have not gotten another letter yet. Chase says that he is on the USS Hopper. Is thi…

Thank you for understanding. I have learned to answer those calls now and stay close to my phone. God Bless you, Merry Christmas, and yes, at least I have a saved message, not so so bad really.

Birdlady...I'm sorry. At least, like you say, you have that message that you can listen to again and again. That would be kind of nice, I think.

Dolphin...thanks to you I did that! He sent me his password for FB and I blasted his address all over the place! And I did ask specific ones to make sure they send him a letter and Christmas cards. He said that the holidays were the worst part.
