I thought that I was a patient person until today. lol

Agreed!!! I think we are all begging for that!
I think the people I work with think I am nuts. Can't sit still and keep doing my deep breathing trying to stay calm.
We are all right there with you on that!
I just wanted to let you guys know that someone in the PIR 10/8 group said that everyone in all 4 divisions passed today. I guess that would include 947??? Makes me feel a little better. Just a little....
Not real sure how many divisions had BS last night....
I believe 4 were going last night ... if we all got the right info. Yippee!!
I asked and this nice womans said her son told her that everyone in 333, 334, 822 and 947 PASSED !!!!!! :0)
My daughter just called and everyone in 947 passed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so proud. 947 got 4.69 out of 5. They did great. We have so much to be proud of, ya'll. I am about to pop.
Wahoo! these recruits are now SAILORS! and we are now sailor moms lol. I am so proud of the whole division they all worked very hard and endured more than most of us could ever imagine. I can not wait until Friday so I can properly congradulate my son. You ladies have been such a great help in this very long nine weeks. This group has helped me remain sane and the info has been sooo helpful.
Isn't it awesome!!!! When I called my parents, my dad promptly said I TOLD YOU SO. Every time my mom called to see if we had heard anything, he was in the background fussing at her, saying he knew his boy, and he had passed, to leave me be, stop worrying me. They definitely worked their tails off and I hope that they are getting some well deserved rest.
My son said they were going to bed at 8 their time but he had watch starting at 10. But he is tougher than ever. Praying he doesn't go to sleep on watch. He said everyone had this great pride, just enjoying the newness of i tmay keep him awake.
