NavyMomJanet, I can definitely identify what you are experiencing....but I also know the power of prayer and my most recent testimony is how my Sailor passed the Prone Float at the last hour possible before getting set back and we credit that to all of the prayers that was on her behalf...Trust the process and continue to believe!!!!
All, Happy last Sunday before PIR!!!!
Yep, long lines for the phones send some to the computers instead!
Yep, Jimbo is absolutely correct. NO cell phones on RTC. Pass off at the airports or for those staying at GL for A School, after liberty when returning to A School base.
Yep, danagagirl: Mine wouldn't pay for computer time either when he was there! HA!
YAH Navy Wife!
Let the excitement continue now until you are finally at PIR! HOOYAH! Have a wonderful Sunday!
Invisible: Don't worry...your very special phone call is coming in a couple of days! :-)
Dianne - yes I have access to his account.. But neither one were willing to pay to use the computers..so my first son said!
It's all good, cause 4 more days!!
