Hi everyone,
Blondie, doing the Happy dance with you! So exciting! Can't wit to see pics of the wedding! Give her a hug fro me too.
Anna, sounds like such a wonder adventure you are on, so happy you are enjoying it!
MartiB, praying your girl get her promotion.
There has been a lot that has happened with Crystals husband. Still shaking my head over her taking him back. But I am going to have a grandson, so happy about that. He isn't that young, he is 36.
BaileysMom, YAY! Getting a letter, and soon to get a phone call! Happy Dancing for you! Happy she is doing well.
Thank you all for the prayers for Crystal. She is going to ask the OB if she should make that drive alone. Praying she tells her no! You are all amazing and I am so happy you are all my sisters!
Raining here, and snow in the mountains. Hope it continues in this pattern for awhile. We need the water.
Spyder have you gotten any of this rain there yet?

Marti_B,
We visited Austin one time several years ago but have no plans to go back anytime soon!! Hubby's brother lived in Round Rock when he first moved to TX and then to Austin!!
Not sure if we will be going to Glacier yet this trip or next one. We kind of plan our places to visit for 2015 and then decide where 2016 will take us!!!
And thank you for asking, Jenn and David are fine, they just have to make some repairs to their brand new landscaping they are working on. But that is so minor compared to what other people are having to deal with!!!
Hope your daughter gets her advancement!!! Keep us posted!!!
Vickyrun,
Did your daughter get to call you during her port visit???
BaileysMom,
Hope you have a wonderful day as well!!!!

Good morning all,
MartiBTx, I hope CJ gets the promotion. Chrissy had to try several times before she got to 2nd class. She tested good every time too. It really depends on the Navy's needs at the time. The percentage of how many they will promote changes every cycle according to the need.

Good Morning to Everyone.
Catsmom, like Blondie said we will be there for you what ever you decide. Will be praying that your decision will be an easy one and be right fit.
Blondie still pray for you and your family and hoping your time with them will be relaxing and give you a real time off.

Good evening everyone!
Anna, so glad you are enjoying Yosemite. I have never been to that park but hope to someday. We are planning on going to Glacier this summer (late). So Anna, do you visit Austin sometimes? My brother lives in Round Rock so am up there quite a bit. Were Jenn and David ok after all the storms.
Catsmom - Keeping Crystal in my prayers. Men don't always think especially when they are young.
Vickyrun - Glad Chrissy made it to her 2nd port call and that all is good with her.
My dtr. CJ tested back in March for a promotion to Petty Officer 2nd class. The list is supposed to come out on May 21 so an anxious to hear if she got it or not. They can really use a little extra income.

Anna, Love Yosemite! Can stay there a week and not see it all. My brother, my ex, my son and my Hefeweizen housed to go there in the winter and do winter camping... Crazy guys, but they loved it. I also love Calif. so much to see and do. Just wish they would stop building in all our beautiful open spaces!
Vickyrun, I know right.
Hank you everyone for praying for Crystal, she is going to need all the prayers!
Played boss today, one of our directors came in to give me my evaluation. All good. Then she is telling me they want me to apply for the Manager Job at one the High Schools next year... Hmmm. Not sure I want to work at a high school. And doesn't mean I will get it either, but I will apply. Have all summer to think about it.

Good morning all, Chrissy made it to her 2nd port call. All is good.
Welcome, cc2014
Catsmom, men are stupid. What can you do? Love them anyway!
Anna, glad you are enjoying Yosemite. I love California.
