Help! I've been looking through this site for an hour trying to find the name of a website, and of course, now I cannot find it. Someone listed a website for HM's to review/study while waiting for school to start in San Antonio. Does anyone know what it is?
Thank you so much for all of those links & answers! My SR will be very happy to know that I actually found some answers for him. Haha! I JUST got a letter from him (he wrote it on 3/13/12) and said as well that they can start writing on tues and thursday... He said his sinuses are finally cleared (he said on the phone everyone got the 'kennel cough' after getting shots and had all been sick for 10+ days)
SR birthday is this coming friday and BOY do I hope he does not have to do any extra PT for the obvious hallmark cards I sent him. This letter he explained that a lot of PT has been going on.
The letter brought tears to my eyes- 25 more days, so close yet so far away!
Rla.... thanks for the update. My SR wrote her letter on 3/11 and I got it on 3/17, however it was not postmarked until 3/14. So maybe there are more on the way.
(03/117) Letters for everyone. Me, My hubby and her sister. Pretty short letters, but written on Thursday. So they are writing more often. She said well tomorrow we start Hell Week. Up at 0400 til 2200 everyday. She said pray for my survival, LOL. She really enjoyed Marlinspike last week. Said it was fun and is looking forward to shooting this week. They sound very busy.
Good morning all..........25 more days can you believe it??
I did get a letter from my SR on saturday she write it on 3/11 which was 3-1 hold, she is doing good and said thay had their first "hard core IT on Sunday" She said she is friends with most of the girls and they are trying hard to pull it together. She gave me a list of the things she wants me to bring her. She listed the usual stuff including a "real" bra and underwear :)
She also said she is ordering division flag t-shirts for everyone. SO if you were planning on ordering check with your SR first.
She also wrote a letter to my husband (her step-dad) and asked for letters, and called him DAD :) She said she had news to share at PIR and "not to tell mom" OOPS ;)
TeacherMom: The 800/900 divisions are not included in the lower-to-higher division number theory for BS. 800/900 divisions can go randomly. However, since the 900 divisions perform at PIR, they are normally finished by Tuesday mornings of PIR week...can go anytime before that. Occasionally one may go on Tuesday night, but that is rare. They want them to have time to practice/rest before PIR.
