Wow! Meg's two week visit is over. Boo hoo! She just landed in Honolulu and her sponsor is taking her to the base. We had a great time visiting. Went camping and fishing, movie day, visited with her old friends, played her fiddle, ate pizza. She worked the first week for her recruiter. Great experience. Sad to see her go but happy she is so happy! Hadn't wanted to cry at the airport but couldn't help it. So glad Hawaiian Airlines let us go to the gate with her. I always will ask for that service. Too bad they confiscated her tide laundry packets. Sigh.

Good morning everyone,
Blondie Connor is so Cute! Enjoy your girl! I know you will! And have a good weekend off.
I agree her lawyer should be handling this! And have told her that. So frustrating being so far away. Doesn't seem her Dad is doing much to help her out, and he lives there!
Jean I love the crib! Have fun at the shower. Pics please. :-)

Hi everyone,
Spyder I love Santa Cruze too. Haven't been there for awhile, and my hubby never has, so that may be where we go. Just going to be a spur of the moment thing I think..LOL
Blondie, happy the rain has stopped, and you can see your garden! Have a good weekend, and ènjoy your girl when you see her soon!
MomOf4, I think he will love San Diego! I love it there. I am about an hour away from San Diego. So let me know if he needs anything.
Enjoying my first day of Summer vacation. Woke up early this morning, went for a long walk, came home made breakfast, then watched the US play. Took a shower, went to lunch with my hubby..and that is about it..LOL Had a nice long talk with Crystal, she is not happy, seems that one of the papers in the divorce packet was missing..The Ass was supposed to sign it too... She called him he said oh sorry, I don't know where it is, or that I had to sign that one too...! Se wants all this settled, and he is still playing games... He was also supposed to have his trial today for his DUI but that was postponed! I wish some of that GA. Lightning would just hit him...I know I shouldn't feel that way but he just makes me so angry!
Ok enough ranting, thanks my Navy Sisters for being here for me.
