Hi, ladies. I spoke briefly with my new Sailor today and I must admit that I am sick to my stomach. We have several family members who are planning to join us in Chicago for PIR (knowing that they must wait until all on the list are seated to enter). Long story short, my Sailor removed my husband's name from his guest list in order to add my sister's name. My Sailor was trying to be a gentleman and not make any of the ladies wait in line. He told me that he is not worried about the change because he feels confident that my husband (and his grandfather) will be able to get in. But I feel just awful. I am so very worried that my husband will not be able to sit with us and that we will not get to enjoy this moment together. I have asked my Sailor to see if he can add my husband's name back to his guest list... but what if it is too late? Do you guys have any idea of what the final date is to update the guest list???

I am not sure but i think the list had to be in 1 week prior to PIR. But i am not sure. And my sr said that they were told that there are normally seat still avaible but what you said is right you guys probably wont be sitting together. Thye would probably have to sit where ever there is a sit.

Christa, why not just go in and get a seat. Then switch seats when the other ones come in?

That might work, Horselover. Thanks!

Hi, Robin. I got a brief call. We only got to speak for a moment because the RDCs came in and told Div 322 to get off the phones. I believe another division was scheduled to make calls. I'm hoping and praying for another call this week... I hope you all get one as well!
