Hey Y'all. Good morning from the sunny but not too warm South. Had a great holiday. My Sailor was here for two weeks. Great times. He had buddies come with him and fly out of B'ham and return here. Had a house full and wouldn't have it any other way. They are back in P'cola now. He got orders for "C" school in Lemoore CA. Leaves Tuesday. Get to see his smiling face one more time before he goes. So far we have been spoiled by him being so close, now it will be skpe for a face to face. Y'all have a great day.
Morning all! Hope you all have a great day today!
MNM, ok and thanks but what's Lilly's?
MNM-been meaning to ask you.....can ATIs after they split off to their sub-specialties, get certified in the others...like a Radar can do Cal or any other combination?
i was watching Househunters International last night and a Avionics Tech (former military but now civilian) was being transferred to a seaside town in England. i forget the name of the town but late last night i did do an internet search and it is a booming location for Aviation. he and his family had a monthly housing allowance of $2500.00. sure looks like AVs (AE or AT) have great opportunities after their Navy life.
Good Morning my Girlies!! today is National Spaghetti Day!!! angel hair or Mostaccioli???? mmmmm!!!
Wow, I slept in this morning! That rarely happens... I hope everyone has a good Wednesday. We haven't heard from B since he got back to P'cola, but I am sure things are busy as always.
Thanks for all the help ladies. Much appreciated. I want to make the trip down to Pcola (I'm in MO) but am not going to make any plans until my son can give me a better idea of how long he'll be there.
Good Morning my Girlies!! yikes it's cold here in SW Tennessee...brrrr!
well i watched the HGTV Dream Home and looks like we don't need THAT much space so when i win it, i'll probably have to put if up for sale or rent it....BUT we'll defintitely have a "throw-down" for the ATI/ATO mommas first!!! the $500,000 in cash should cover our party expenses!! that ought to buy lots of "pigs in a blanket" and wings!!!!
welcome to our group Joshmom : ) my ATI son arrived Pcola 9-30-10 and departed 4-22-11. hope you get to visit him in Pcola...if you make the trip give us shout!
Thanks for all the info ladies!
