Good morning,
I always check in here when I wake up. I feel this is more my info home than FB, but I go on both. I like that this is a more intimate group. Happy New Year

I have not heard from my SR in 061 this week. We did get a letter from another SR in his division, which mentioned they still had not received mail from the past couple weeks at that time (it was dated 12/31). Has anyone from this division heard anything encouraging? It is hard not to feel discouraged when reading all the other divisions are calling yesterday and today...on top of feeling like ours is the only division that seemed to have no one photographed.
Thanks for any word!

Good morning,
I PMd you with the link. There is a group of about six moms who commented on it...it's the group that also mentioned an SR was reading How the Grinch Stole Christmas in their division.
Happy Day!

Tidbits from the mail...Div 061 earned all their possible flags and passed all their zone and DMI inspections. I actually don't know what that means....another thing to go look up ;) An SR with initials RH can use a lot of encouragement and prayer. Division cohesion seems excellent. I heard about a dad/ husband who is the religious PO. My SR has really enjoyed getting to know him. They got to sing a lot of Christmas hymns at church. Got a few letters from other SRs. One of them, with last initial D (don't know his first initial) said "it's been cool to get to know a lot of new friends...but WE Miss GIRLS!"
