No duffle bag explosion here yet-he is still at my daughters house.  But that is ok.  They have always been close & he is getting to know his little nephew.  It is nice just to know he is "here" and be able to pick up the phone and call.  He is still adjusting to the time difference. Latest on the gf- they broke up.  He is bummed about that.  Hubby took him to a hockey game yesterday & they enjoyed that.  Today he is celebrating friends birthday.  Eventually, he will make his way here and that will be nice.  Oh and he hurt his arm at work, had an mri just before leave and tore a tendon or something and will be on light duty for 2-6 weeks, I think he said.  It is quite painful.        As for me,  I am sooo behind in getting ready for Christmas!  Just got the tree up today- it is real so can't really put it up too much in advance.  Haven't made cookies or finished shopping yet....time to panic?   Thanks all for the warm wishes. 
MissMom- wow, love the bathroom!
Praying for Nick.  Hope all is well, Anti M. and eyes are better T-Lynn.
Happy for all with sailors home :)

Val, so happy for you and I know you are walking on air!   Enjoy your time with your precious son.  There is nothing in the world like having them home.

 

Katlanta, I know you are just "giddy" with excitement!   Praying for a safe flight for your son!

 

Thanks Blondie!  I am really enjoying it.   I love my ceiling fan!  That was the best investment we made for that bathroom.  I have already got my money's worth out that one.   Also thank you so much for your updates on Nick!  You are true sweetheart.  Maybe everything will get better at work.

Just talked to my son for an hoir and a half. I usually get a call when his wife doesn't answer...this time she was at work and too crazy to answer. But they are on skype now.
He finally got a solid answer on when she can be with him and Admiral Anti M was correct. He will have to be an E4. She s real cool about it and that helps my son. Sje totally amazes him. Like she and I discussed earler that even though we would love for them to be together...she has her bff and great family tp support her during her pregnancy and she woild be so alone over there since she isn't one to seek help and support. I'm glad that they are taking this separation so well.
He also got my cookies in great shape and it tok one week! Wow! Hard to believe.

katlanta- The house is actually in his name. We moved here when he did since neither of us were working. We decided to go in halves on a bigger house plus no one would rent to us with neither one of us working. Even though we have income but no job. We have both tried to find with without any luck yet. We still however pay our own share of the rent and utilities and probably 95% of the food. We have spoken with him and she has gotten a little better but still not very friendly or helpful. So we just can't kick her out since the house is in his name. My husband has a good lead on a job just waiting to hear back. If he gets it when the lease is up we will be getting our own place.

The funny thing is the son says in feb they will probably get there own place. But they have no furniture or kitchen stuff just the bedroom stuff. I guess you could say that is all they need. We will see I think she has it pretty good since I do all the cooking. I had to show her how to make top ramen. But she has not came in and made it again. 

I just with she was more friendly and wanted to learn how to do normal stuff. He liked her cause she was a car girl and he thought she knew a lot about cars. Come to find out she likes cars and has one, and she can talk car talk but to actually do everything she talks about she can't. You see my oldest sailor does car shows and stuff with his car. But he does all his own work on it also.

Blondie the update about Nick- what the priest said about how Jesus kept gettng up again as he fell bearing his cross. Truely ministered to me and I bawled my eyes out. I just put on my makeup this morning. As we pray for Nick and send cards and words of love and encouragement, we are like the man from Cyrene named Simon who was compelled t bear his cross. So like him we also bear Nicks cross. We are told to bear one anothers burdens.
Maggs, I found out about wedding from the big gossip at church and that sailor going to Japan. Really hurts. I feel for you finding out on fb. I also know how I felt about fearing loosing my son to a jealous wife. We had a lng ride back from the airport and bonded but before that, uggh! I really didn't feel good about them getting married. Hopefully yours takes more time. Allergies could be from mold from the flood. But my bff always had a reaction to my one cat I had at the time. No matter how much I cleaned the cat and the house. Allerges aren't always consistant. I do understand that you feel she is trying to avoid you and intouition or gut feelings are pretty right on.
Navymom3 I also had youngest gf living with us...and she turned son into a slob too. And she always seemed sick. Funny thing....once they moved out their place is neat and she has to work to pay rent and isn't as sick anymore. Ill pray for your courage to set your boundries.

Mississippi mom those are nice pics of your new bathroom.

Maggs my older son has a GF we don't care for. Since we currently share a house with him he had her move in 2 months ago. He is 24 so we can't say much. She doesn't help around the house, doesn't know how to cook, doesn't seem to want to learn how to cook and complains she has a migraine all the time. She will clean there bedroom but that is all. My younger son even moved out of the bathroom he shared with them so he didn't have to clean up after her. She doesn't volunteer to help with anything. They got in a fight about 3 weeks ago and she left but only for 2 nights. We wish she would have stayed gone but she couldn't find anyone to help fix her car. She also calls in sick at least once a week if not more. He doctor gave her a note saying she was able to have 6 fml days a month because of cronick migraines. So she uses them anytime she doesn't want to work.You can tell when she doesn't want to be around as she will just drag her feet when she walks through with her head down. I wish he would have kept his old GF she would make a better wife. Thanks goodness they are not talking marriage.

I am just glad my middle Japan sailor hasn't found a pain GF.

Maggs, just know that she is probably insisting that he spend time with her...He knows what it right, but he is just trying to keep her happy.   Sounds like if you give her enough rope, she will hang herself.   Let her be the one that messes up!   I do feel your pain!  Girlfriends.... some can be nightmares!

 

Thank you Anti-M!   I am so happy to finally be finished with it.   I hope all goes well with your surgery, and don't worry about making sense with your post.  Sometimes my posts are just crazy, and I haven't had a thing done!  LOL!  Take care of yourself and we will all be happy to see that you are doing well.
