Hi Bernapet! Good to hear from you! Glad you had your sailor around for a bit. I will see mine soon!
Guess we will correspond in the evenings when all that goes into gear again.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!
Hi Everyone,
I can't go on this site anymore at work, so wanted to make sure I said hi to all the moms, and happy mothers day. I have my sailor home this week. A wonderful treat for me. I know the Truman is gearing up...not looking forward to not being able to call my sailor whenever I want. Hope all is well with all my favorite moms! Have a great week!
Hard to believe that B is finishing up his first year of college. Has finals this week in Calculus, Physics and Engineering! (Better him than me lol!). He's loving life after the Navy. We are still planning our trip to VA in August - still need to book it ~ just watching prices on flights!
Today is my hubby's birthday and B got tickets for them to go to Lambeau Field for a Packer game in October! Hubby is a huge cheesehead (as is B). Can't wait to see the look on his face tonight when he opens his card :D Definitely a bucket list item for them both.
Hope everyone is well! {{NMH}}
Hi Friends! I hope everyone is well and planning to have a good summer, albeit the weather certainly doesn't make me feel like summer is just around the corner! I was just reflecting how infrequently I'm on N4M now and how, during deployment, we couldn't seem to go a couple of hours without being here for one another. I know that time will circle around again for all of us, but for now I'm thankful that we are busy and able to breathe knowing our family and friends can be reached with a simple phone call! Miss you all! Send up a flare once in a while!
Hope everyone is well this Tuesday evening. Thinking good thoughts.
