good morning ladies!!!! I have the phone with me just like we all do. I do have an issue that I was wondering if you may be able to give some suggestions for me.
My son mailed the initial letter to his father, my ex husband. I went on to print my gate pass and needed a password to print it. When I called his father to get the password, he had lost the letter. He called the rtc and they said Alex was the only one who knew the password. I have all the potential people he will call today preped to ask him what the password is, but if he does not remember, or someone forgets to ask him, I am in a pickle. I will be very upset if I get all the way out there and can not go to graduation. DOes anyone have any suggestions for me?? I am on the verge of a total meltdown here.

Morning ladies! I'm sure some of you have been up all night...care to share a Starbucks? Now I know ALL of you will be getting calls from your SAILORS today, but if you can remember in all the excitment to ask them if everyone passed. That way you can post it here so the mom's still waiting can relax just a bit.... Oh who am I kidding -there will be no relaxing from this point until we see our Sailors next Friday!!!! Early Congratulations to all of you!!!!

I'll be monitoring the site during work tomorrow too! Please post ASAP when you get a call so I can go home sick! Just kidding, but the reception where I work is horrible so I'll find a way to get to a window!

Don't think I can sleep tonight but gonna try because the sooner I go to sleep the sooner tomorrow will be here.....or at least that's my rationale...lol.
Holly- I'm not suppose to be online during the day...but they weren't going to stop me today or tomorrow...really, I think they understand. Everyone knows she's about to graduate and I am super excited. Besides, the laughing at some of the post this morning kind of gave me away....lol!
Lonnie'sMom- Thank you. I wonder if your recruit is feeling better by Captain's Cup will he be able to compete with 365? I bet they really would want him there (I know I do :-))
Letzfly- wow, I didn't think of that....that really doesn't seem fair and hopefully they'll get a little rest before Captain's Cup. But you could also think of it like this....the other divisions will be too "stressed out" about passing BS to completely focus on Captain's Cup....lol!

I am so excited for 365, tomorrow they'll be official "Sailors". Hang in there ladies, it's finally here! My thoughts and prayers are with them!!
GO 365!

Captains Cup is going to be tough on our division! They're going into it with little to no sleep! That doesn't seem fair, but oh well, they're tuff!

I spoke to one of the moms whose recruit had BS last night and PIR tomorrow. She said he called at about noon GL time but they had drill practice before he could call so he was late calling. I hope I don't miss his call tomorrow!

Diana- LOL...LMBO!! That is tooo funny and soo true!!
Lonnie'smom- I agree with Diana 365 a healthy recruit is more important than anything but he got his meds and he will be ok and helping us win the Captain's Cup!! No worries. You're "stuck" with us...lol.
You ladies are a great group of Moms! BIG HUGS for everybody!!
