Yeah, pretty scary. Sounds like she found someone at personnel command (?) that said off she can show she didn't know maybe they will work with her. I have been going back through all old emails from her deployment. Including the one where i told her she was divorced....maybe that will prove it to them. I sure hope so anyhow. And yes. Probably will have to sue him if we can't get it squared away. G rrr.
Enjoy your special day as well as weekend.

Spyder, thank you for the birthday wish, it is tomorrow. 58 tomorrow, LOL
All I can say is WOW about your daughter. What is wrong with these guys! Navy leagle want much help to Crystal either. Why are they there then? Now I am wondering if her divorce actually went through. She never heard anything from them about it either. She thinks hey are still married. Hmmmm
I pray your girl get things straightedge out, she might have to sue her ex for the money.
On a happier note, I am glad you had fun with Anna, she is an amazing woman. I just can't wait to meet up with her again.
Blondie sorry your help isn't coming back this week. That sucks! But happy you will be seeing your Sailors soon! I will let you know what my girl sent me. Wish it could be her..LOL
Have a good evening everyone.
Safe travels Anna!

Sorry about your neck;(. But excited for your gifts;). Did i miss your birthday? Happy birthday whenever our was or is!
I had a great time with Anna.....looking forward to more of her adventures.
I am needing help with daughter who press $49,550.15 to the navy. Any suggestions welcomed. She did not know she was divorced and her ex kept using tricare and is diabetic. She was deployed when she found out and had since worked through proper channels, we thought, in order to get this squashed or at least for navy to ask him for half. Went to navy legal and they said couldn't advise her on anything because they are government employee. Huh? I thought they were there for our sailors. Anyhow , it'd anyone had suggestions, i would appreciate them. She called 10 attorneys. One would talk to her....$3500 and her said outcome would be iffy. :(

Good morning everyone.
Anna, I know you and spyder had a good time together! I am sure you are loving the weather. We are going to be in he upper 80's the rest of the week..
Jean, happy you will have Aurora on Sunday. Hard to share I bet.
Friday for me. I am ready for it too. I tweaked my neck on Monday and it still stiff. Not even going to go there, some people will just never figure out the proper set up for a save work inviroment. We were going to go away for my Birthday, but was informed by my girl to stay home tomorrow for a package she is sending. Hmmmm so I guess change of plans. LOL
