Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 18, 2011 at 5:48pm: GOT A PHONE CALL!!!! 45 minutes all to me :DD

He is healthy again. Missed his #2 run by 39 seconds, but will pass it on the 3rd one.

Wasn't able to do live fire because a big storm hit and knocked out powerr.

Gas chambers is tomorrow.

Battle stations the 27/28th

then GRADUATIONNN(:

He kept saying "IS THERE A JODY?" And continuously I said, no, there's NO other guy. because I guess his bunkmate keeps talking about his girl and worryin she'll get with another guy, because he's cheated on her and is proud of it? and claims it makes him "more appreciative of his girlfriend, because the other girls are skanks"......uhm...BUD, I DON'T BELIEVE YOUR GIRLFRIEND WOULD BE GLAD TO KNOW THAT'S WHY YOU'RE APPRECIATIVE?!?!?!?!!

Wow. My bf chewed him out and explained how wrong that logic is to him. That's sad. And I wish I'd meet that girl at PIR and it just "slip out" because it's so wrong...but it's not my place, so i shall behave!

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 18, 2011 at 11:45am: probably fake though, so it doesnt wilt in my hair:p

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 18, 2011 at 11:42am: I'm gonna get a white flower of some sort I think to put in my hair!

Comment by Donna-Amanda's mom on July 18, 2011 at 11:38am: Hurley- Glad everything turned out to be good. Hope you are feeling better after the biopsy.

Nicole- What beautiful flowers. They would look so great with your dress. Too bad they wouldn't stay good so you could wear them in your hair to PIR along with the dress. Would look Hawaiian.LOL

Mary-Can't believe how far D has come. Too bad about those that got kicked out for being stupid. All that work for nothing. Hope they learned something through it.

AJ- Wonderful news for you. Glad you heard from A. Hope y ou get to do the cruise with him. Would be wonderful if you and Iris were in Hawaii at the same time.

Nothing from my sailor but am sure she will write when she has time. Wondering if her twin has heard word if she gets to do the TC with her.

Comment by AJ on July 18, 2011 at 7:59am: Hurley! Waking up to your bright, positive, healthy, assuring news this morning has made my day already ..... stick with those inner senses that everything is ok! It is still a relief to get that confirmation. Boo that you had to go through the pain of the biopsy though and I hope your soreness is much improved. I'm doing a happy dance for you here with the rising sun ......

..... and while I'm at it, I think I will wear some of these pretty flowers that Nicole has posted ... what vibrant color .... she must be taking lessons from Iris.

Mary ... is Dereck already working on a masters program? or these classes will help him to get closer to one? What a brainiac he is. I know you give him crap for being a dork and/or a nerd, but wow, you must be so proud of him. I'm confident he got all of his smarts from you! Staying up to 3:00 a.m. to play Monopoly with an imminent test? this boy must have a photographic memory! Speaking of Monopoly, I have a Spanish version here, and I played it with my nephew and his girlfriend (the same game, just all in Spanish). I kicked their a$$e$, just sayin' ......... How did you burn your nose?

Bright blessings to each of you this day!

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 18, 2011 at 12:05am: some flowers from outside today:)

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 17, 2011 at 8:47pm: I did indeed hurley:) I try it on every few days...hahah:)

Comment by hurleyl8dyShip6Div943PIR9/10/10 on July 17, 2011 at 8:17pm: Ok, I have a minute before big brother starts. I got some good news Friday, my biopsy is fine. I knew it was going to be. Also got the call from my gastro doctor and the insurance cleared me for the camera capsule. So I do that the week after next. I'm sure it will be all fine.

pPM, I felt so bad when I read your post that you have not seen your son since PIR. Oh my, you need extra {{{ HUGS}}} . Is he right now on a sub? I know they deploy for long periods. Guess like ships.

Iris, I love it that your doing the derby. I think it's so great. How is Haley? Did she change to being a nurse?

AJ, I love the pictures you posted on FB. And YAY! You heard from A!and no more cranking! Can't wait till he is back on US soil like Shellys D.

Oh Shelly, I wish I could have seen the ship come in, my stupid iPad didnt support it and when I went to my desk top it was already over. I wish they would stream all ships and subs coming home.

Oh and iris I forgot to say ,Yay! Corie got a new car! Honda is a great car. So happy, that poor kid without a car... Now he has one!

Mary, Derrick wants Washington? He should talk with Donna and PPM. I hear it's beautiful. CG has a big station there. I think my kids would freeze. Matt complainsed last winter and he's just on the FL border in GA.

Yay Donna! Amends going to be a shellback! So cool. I think we should make tee shirts! Shellback and pollywogs! Can't wait to watch her homecoming!

Oh Nicole I can't believe how fast time is flying! Yay! Did you get that pretty dress yet? Love it! I want one too.

Thanks all for being the surrogate for my CG son Marc. So sweet to include him. You guys are just the best. I don't think I will ever have this with any CG moms, not the same.

Comment by Donna-Amanda's mom on July 17, 2011 at 7:32pm: PPM- Welcome back.

Iris is in Oregon, PPM and I are in Washington.

Mary- He must like rain and cold if Washington is big on his list. My daughter didn't even want Washington or back East. She wanted warm after GL. Amanda is not a shellback yet but will be before she returns. Good luck with the Air Force. I am an Air Force brat born in the back seat of my dads car at the gate of the base. Too bad the base isn't there anymore. Would love to have seen where I was born.

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 17, 2011 at 6:40pm: AJ- 10 days!!!!!!:)

WWWWEEEEEEEHAAAAAAA!

(Keep in mind i'm keeping days until I go stay in Aledo with his family, not until the actual PIR. 10 days from now will be my last day of work, the day before we leave for pir and 2 days prior to PIR, i like it this way, because it's a shorter count down:))
