Aw - so sweet Charlotte - thank you.. we weathered the storm very well, no major damage and thankfully no flooding where I live (end of Long Island). Irene stayed closer to the coast, and hit New York more toward the city and western LI. we had a few scary days, very high winds, heavy rain and tornado warning.
On another Note - I received my invitation today to Nuke School Graduation, surprised myself by crying like a baby LOL. S is doing really well, he has had 4 tests in the last 10 days and did great on all of them (especially widowmaker), his fiancee left today to visit him for the weekend ~ nice break for both of them
Happy Labor Day!
hello ladies - i just found this group...hope you are all well!
steven is on the carrier John C Stennis based out of Bremerton, WA, they are on a 7 mth deployment to the persian gulf.
have a safe Labor day.
Oh My Gail, not at that stage yet - but will be within the next year or so.. so glad that you hear from Him..
Charlotte,glad you had a safe trip.
Oh good Gail! glad you heard from Eric!
oh my Charlotte! what a quick trip... hpe that you get a longer calmer visit over labo r day weekend!
Charlotte, I will let you know how he likes the sub when he gets back :-) This is his first real deployment. I just pray for him daily that he will stay busy, do his job well, and not have any ill effects of being cooped up.
Didn't feel the quake in Michigan but I heard that some did.
Hi All - Yes Charlotte, I did feel the quake today, such a scary feeling, I was home with my daughter and our entire house shook, I am at the east end of Long Island and It was very short, maybe 15 seconds. sounds silly, but at first I thought it was my vertigo acting up :) - then we realized what was really happening - what stands out the most to me was that I had just gotten home from food shopping and I still had soda and water bottles on the Island and the liquid was rock'in back and forth. next up Hurrican Irene, I hope she stays off land and heads out to the ocean.
