Collen thanks for the rita. @CeeCee, anyone can send a email to you on N4M's you don't have to be there friend. All they have to do is just hit send message from her page and they can send her one. Hey we know there is a hacker look what happened to me and It took the Admin. a week just to get back to me the first time and NING 3 weeks to even think about looking at what was going on.

 

I got a short call from my daughter tonight, she call to say Happy 4th of July to me and her dad, it made me cry and then we talked about how hot and that she is taking cool showers at night because its so hot. She did say she passed her spot dolly board today now she has 2 more trackers to learn and she will be a Tracker King.

ME-i am thinking there is a hacker about...Teena (her page is open) has only one friend.  she would know who sent the email and only "friends" can send emails...correct?  well about 2 weeks ago on my private email account i received an email from a Navy for moms member and when i hit reply i got the message that the mail was "sent". later it was returned to my inbox. i do not know the Navyformoms who sent the email to me.  i think Teena needs to report this to the admin. of Navyformoms!!! she is very inactive on her page or at least appears to be so maybe if you can report it for her to the admins. wwho have her personal email address to contact her.  it says on her page that she is a Navy wife, Navy mother in law and and a Nurse at the Naval Hospital...she would KNOW what is appropriate to post...NO question about it!!!

ceecee, i know what you mean bout missing our kids more than normal.  today i went to a concert at the church "Let Freedom Ring" and cried thru most of it.  part way thru the concert they have retired military personnel carry in the flag from their branch and the choir sings that branches song.  as the navy flag was carried in broke down crying.  it's been a week since my oldest daughter was picked up by her recruiter and jess being out on the ship.

Ok here we go, this is for the person who thought they would be cute and telll Tenna that the public picture she posted was rude. IF I FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM NAVY FOR MOMS. I don't play game and you know it. I don't like this kinda CRAP and I will find out who you are!!!
Comment by duhhuh58 Ship 10/Div 267 on July 3, 2011 at 9:51pm

teena,

please don't leave us "lovely ladies" alone!  you have DONE NOTHING WRONG!!  this information is public information.  once it is posted on the bush's facebook page it's ok.  if you want to take a full page ad out in the newspaper, put it on a billboard or paint it on your car you can.

 

so, whomever sent the email stating that the picture was rude is full of s**t and rude.  if the emailer has a problem with what was posted they need to contact the administrator of the group.  if the emailer has a problem with the fact that our sailors went past egypt then they need to step back as OUR sailors have been there and we have no problem with egypt.
