Wow that's a big group for PIR. Do you know how the recruits are put into the 300 divisions or is it just first come first serve?

@Lynne.. my girls are 8 and 4. The 4 year old is having alot of trouble with this beings he's been gone for a couple weeks now. She thinks he's gone for good.. not comming back. It's soo hard to explain to a 4 year old that he's away so he can protect us and that he's comming back. They wanted to know when bedtime was, what he ate for breakfast, wanted to make sure he's sleeping good at night, they wanted to know what the first thing is that he wants to do as a family when/if he has liberty.. and most of all, wanted to make sure he missed them as much as they do him. We started with the food quiz, next week we will see if they have more questions to add to a diff quiz.

I guess I can vent becuz I've been holdn n and I guess on over spill today. The thurs before my recruit left my husband found out high blood pressure and diabetes. Then Friday I went to our storage unit to get totes for my son to help clean his rm before he left. To only discover it had been broken into. My son left Sun at 11 And my husband left at3 the same day. (to be gone a week) my sons younger sibling didn't deal well all week. Very emotional week for all. quit coffee and started exercising.. Am I whining enough!!!!! SO SORRY BUT ABOUT TO EXPLODE! OH yeah and in my storage unit they took my CHRISTMAS TREE. SORRY SORRY SORRY....maybe I'll feel better now

The 11/5 PIR date is posted on the Recruit Training Command's schedule! Yes! It seems official now! I'm excited! There are 13 divisions (355-364, 824, 825, 951). That's a big group! Might want to get those reservations if you haven't yet. :-)
