Information
As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

Well hello there girls!
Busy weekends we all had, I see :)
Kelly I don't think I could have put my feet in that water... brrrr. But I'm sure it felt awesome to be out in that warm sun! It was a great weekend here as well. I worked outside all day on Saturday... I've got lots to do before June 30!!
kk, I bet it was awesome to be riding all day long!! And I bet the horses loved it too... nice warm sunshine on their faces. I hope C had a good weekend. I pray that you will be able to get in to see the Neuro. doc sooner rather than later!! Why are they waiting so long?
Bama so happy J is finally home with you!! How long will he be there? How does he like the new home? Enjoy every minute:)
Rox, no dress yet... I haven't even started to look yet, haha! I'm not in the mood to shop right now!! Probably sometime in April or May I'll start looking... I'm dreading it though.. the thought of trying on so many dresses, and I'll probably hate everything I try on, haha!!
Lydia, hope you had a nice lunch with your new friend.. it's a small world huh? 45 miles from you, wow! How is D feeling? How are H's new pups? I bet her house is crazy at times. My friend got 2 puppies at the same time.. total chaos!! haha.
Well gotta run, have a great day, peeps:)))

Good Morning! The SUN is shining again today...YAY! The temps got up to 81 degrees here yesterday so we took a ride to the beach after taking S back to school! It was awesome to roll up our jeans & walk in the ocean...even tho it was NUMBING...hahaha!! EVERYONE was out enjoying this beautiful MARCH weather...we saw 3 horses splashing in the waves, every size dog you could imagine & of course alot of kids were in the water too....BRRRR!!! C'mon SPRING WhooHoo!
I hope you all had a nice weekend & have a great Monday!

kk, Praying for answers and relief for C. Pain and numbness is a common symptom of a herniated disc in the cervical spine-bilateral or unilateral depending on which side is being pressed on. I know if you have a disc repaired it is not uncommon for the discs above and below to be weakened and eventually herniate. I am not sure if the other discs are affected with the type of surgery C had-did you check out WebMD? Praying for her, I do know it is very painful.
Bama, So happy you are able to spend time with J. Sounds like he is doing great. Praying for you tomorrow, hope the surgery goes well and you heal fast.
Lydia, How did the lunch go?
kelly, How is the computer, did you get it set up yet?
pamom, Hello, did you find a dress yet?
Happy Monday all!

I'm back!!!!!! AND SO IS J!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy I could just burst!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He has grown an inch, is so mature........ definitely going to apply to get back to AW and be aircrew............ He just looks SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!! I'll post pics in the next day or two--he's going to bed after being on airplanes all night and up most of the day and I have that darned carpel tunnel release in the morning...........so will try to get them up in a day or two!!!
Glad you sisters been playing in the dirt!!!! and yes, a slipped disc usually causes some numbness and pain--sometimes pinchy, sometimes stabbing....
Have a wonderful rest of your Sonday!!!! My SONday has been AWESOME!!!
