does anyone have a phone number for the 2013-2014 Deployment (NA Division) pictures they sent to us through the mail. I mailed it the day before I left for Norfolk and forgot to put a check in it thanks onlymom
Good morning Ladies! I haven't been on here in over a week and had a whole lotta catching up to do. Just finally read all the posts. For those of you that got to go to the Homecoming so Happy for you! Ktrsbcvn75 thank you so much for all the great picts you posted on here.You had me bawling like a baby looking at them! I did manage to watch some of the Homecoming live stream at work and was crying tears of joy for you all remembering the last Homecoming when I was there with my family and the wonderful day it was! Carrie and Big Momma so very sorry to hear about your illnesses and glad you are both doing better! Praying for you both to get healthy and stay healthy! Pschip glad to hear you are on the mend. My knee surgery was put off as the gal that I work with up and quit and left us high and dry so to speak. Another 2 gals in out dept. quit and I have a new boss that I had to show how to do all this to. It's been a very interesting few weeks. My son came home on leave but I did not get to take much time off to spend with him because of all this. He understood and since he will be getting out in a few weeks said Mom do what you have to do, I can wait a bit longer to spend time with you. He spent a good portion of his time off visiting 3 colleges anyway close by out of town. We did spend a great weekend together the weekend before Easter and went fishing and had our traditional Easter meal and all we did was hang out the whole weeknd, so I had that. Catsmom so very sorry to hear about your daughter. I don't know if that was you on FACEBOOK site that I commented on, but if not you need to talk to that mother cuz it saounds like the exact situation on there. That made me mad and this does too! What a low-life he was and good riddance to him I say! She is lucky to have such a great supportive mom as you are! My daughter has gone through a somewhat similar situation with her husband recently-long story- but she booted him out too and has two children to take care of. We have been helping her out as much as possible. Lucky my son missed most of this as it happened before he got home cuz he told me it would have been hard for him to restrain himself! This was his bib sister. If you want to talk I am here for you. Sounds like things are settling down again for us all and our sailors are going back from their leaves and back to life in port. I am praying for you all and for your sailors. I have missed being on here, jsut have been so very busy!
Good morning everyone! Praying for all those impacted by the storms this week. We were supposed to leave Michigan today to head towards Norfolk. We have postponed leaving now until tomorrow - hoping to stay behind the storm line. Regardless will are scheduled to reach Norfolk Thursday as my sailor is due back Friday at 0600. I am very concerned about severe weather and flooding on Thursday and it looks now like VA is in the zone for 3-5 inches of rain on Thursday. Has anyone had an experience of weather delay or needing to request a leave extension? I'm not sure this is even possible but wondered what the procedure would be. Of course, my sailor just wants to get back but I don't want to put ourselves in danger in the process. Suggestions??
