WELCOME TO PIR 06/29/2012

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance. Please take the timeto read the OPSEC and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names of Sailors/Recruits are not allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on June 7, 2012 at 7:12pm: Thanks Renee, My mom has COPD and Parkinson's among many other things. They are having a hard time getting her blood levels in the okay range. She is on Coumadin and has to go to the Dr every Thursday. My Dad is diabetic and is in remission from Prostate Cancer. I worry about them all the time and do as much as I can to help them out. If anyone here likes to pray please add them to your prayer list. I really appreciate it. :-)

Comment by mareluc(Ship11/Div196/PIR 6/29) on June 7, 2012 at 4:00pm: New photos on Facebook! They all look great!!!!

Comment by diannep on June 7, 2012 at 3:15pm: Renee: Awwwww....so sweet! Then I bet he loves the meal no talking policy. My son is a chatterbox so it probably was torture for him when he was there!

Comment by raeveness(Ship11Div198PIR6/29) on June 7, 2012 at 3:00pm: Got two letters from my daughter today! She said they didn't do so well at Marlinspike, but that things were getting better in the division. She did pass her weapons turnover inspection and her personal inspection, but didn't pass her PFA. Her schedule for Graduation states: "Graduate, Junk Food, Great Lakes, Nap on a REAL bed, Shower in a REAL head, burning party and fixing her bowl hair cut." And she said they send letters on Tuesday and Thursdays too now! And she also stated they "May get another phone call soon."

Comment by ReneeBC on June 7, 2012 at 10:14am: Lala, Don't I wish!! Every girlfriend that boy picks out is materialistic and sharp-tongued. I never say a word, but, clearly, there have been times he's read my mind. He'll turn to me and say, "I'll let you know when I'm looking for my forever girl, and I'm too young for that right now." Soooo, I haven't worried that I'll spend the rest of my days biting my tongue. His female-friends are awesome. LOL I hope your mom is just having a check up and all is well.

FTLW, Thank you!

Diannep, No worries. He probably hasn't mentioned the no talking thing because he is a very quiet guy most of the time. (Now, true down time is a different story!) When he was in high school, he would grab a salad from the cafeteria and come up to my room and eat. He hated the noise, chatter, and gossip during the few minutes allowed to actually eat. (We had the same lunch time) He would eat his giant salad and three apples in record time, kiss me on the cheek and head to class, never having said a word. Maybe he's been preparing for the navy all this time. :D

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on June 7, 2012 at 8:59am: Now I am off to take my Mom to the doctor and then shopping for fabric :-) I'll Be back this afternoon. Have a happy morning :-)

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on June 7, 2012 at 8:46am: Well I am on here this morning but only because I am using my hubby's laptop. Yesterday I went to Navy for Dads site and then something happened on my computer and it said my computer could not access that site. Then I went to Navy for Moms and got the same message. It says Unable to access the Network, then something about my firewall. But I can access all other websites with no problem at all. I have tried turning off the computer and it still doesn't work. I sent a message to my Sailor and her Hubby/Sailor. He is an IT so maybe he has an idea how to fix it. uggggg

Comment by diannep on June 7, 2012 at 8:45am: I'm collecting BattleStations dates from you all so please friend request/message me if you get one from your SR. Don't post dates on this site...not allowed. But I will keep a schedule!
