Hey there ladies... seems that after that friday call my body was able to finally sleep soundly for many, many hours after many weeks of not being able to. So, mail, if you didn't send out your last letter Friday/Sat the latest, don't bother now. The mail was getting to them in 4 days for most of you outside of IL. But like Diana 952 stated, it will get to them in A school and they will probably get a kick out of the words. "can't wait til your graduation" which might have been 2 months earlier. LOL.
So guess what hubby did. Who darnit had to leave on a business trip and won't come back til Wed late late night!!! Talk about cutting it close!!! He bought a new camera. I felt soooo sorry for him because he didn't get "the Call". His # changed because work now processes their cell phones, and she couldn't get it right via memory when I kept repeating it to her. She did call both of her brothers though. So he did what most men do when they are sad... buy some kind of electronic. He says he is fine now because he knows he will physically see her in a few days. But I said NOTHING about the camera and am actually excited about it. So get ready for lots of posing on Thursday ladies because I have a camera to break in!
So is everyone else okay after Friday's bouncing off the walls? I have only had a few days in my life when I felt that way and boy does it knock you OUT!

From what I understand, if they don't reach them at Great Lakes they will be forwarded to wherever they go next.

Kelly- I'm sure once one of the other divisions finish bs 21 and phone home someone will ask about Captain's cup and post in the PIR group.
Lonnie- thanks. I told her to tell them her mom said to give her some more antibiotics and some Airborne! LOL!

@ Kelly- I don't think there are any more calls, not sure! I know they practice next week for graduation and they have to clean their ship for the next set of recruits to come in:) Yes, I do believe all their tests are done!!
@ Lady - I got my ribbons today, they are awesome:) Thanks LaLa and I agree the "Great Lakes Crud" (thats what they call the sickness going around up there) is nothing to mess with! LOL My cousin had it too when she went through this summer, maybe they should invest in some germ killer! Ha Hope your daughter starts feeling better!

Oh no Letzfly! Sorry to hear about your back and M&G but glad to hear that you will still make it to PIR! Get well soon! I got my ribbons yesterday and they are beautiful. LaLa did a great job.
Holly- 5am on a Sat. Ouch! I still need to start packing but so so tired today.
Lonnie & Dee- whatever is going around the base, my sailor had it a couple of weeks ago and she said it was trying to come back. I told her to go to SIQ and get some more antibiotics.
