Good morning ladies! I had been getting all of the comments to my email, but haven't since Thursday...I checked, and did not "stop following" on any of the discussion groups...has anyone else have a problem? I have re-set my phone, and shut down my computer with no resolution. Any suggestions? I miss the "dings" on my phone, and can't sit down to my computer much during the day. :(

Just received a call from my SR. I hear a little struggle in his voice even though he tries to hide it. All I could do us encourage him. There is a light at the end of this road. 4 more weeks.

Thanks so much :)
Good morning everyone. I love that this groups gets that extra day with their sailors because of Thanksgiving. There are lots of places there that will serve Thanksgiving dinner so do some research and see what looks best for your family. I believe some of them require reservations. And of course some will try to cook in their hotel. I have done that before and it can be hard because there is so much you don't really think of because you always have it in your pantry, especially things like spices and condiments. So if you are doing that be sure and make a detailed list and try to keep it as simple as possible :)
