Hey, thanks for the add! I'm wanting to find a place to stay ( short term ) while my husband is in pre-buds. Do you think that would even be worth it? Is your husband in buds now ?

Well thanks for the advice.. When he got his orders to San Diego, how long did it take until you found a place out there? And are yall going to be stationed out there now that he's no longer in buds? How does that work ?

Hi! I read that you're new to the San Diego area, how are you liking it so far? I grew up in Coronado, my dad served 24 years in the navy. I live a little further north now, near Temecula CA.

Hello! My oldest son was undesignated for 2 years. At first he was freaked thinking he'd be treated very poorly. He wasn't. He was assigned to the Enterprise those 2 years and he worked most of the time in the boatswains mate dept. And EVERYONE chips paint on the ships.....not just undesignated so don't let the horror stories upset you guys. My son was very happy during that time. After 2 years, he was able to chose another rate and just started corpsman school this week. So tell hubby to hang in there. He's getting a paycheck, good benefits, housing and will get another opportunity to chose another rate.

he is going back to cali!! He will be stationed in SDas well, and i'm so happy, coz it's only 1.5 hours from me!! Much closer than IL lol
Well, i'm trying not to think about it but .. i still do lol i'm just getting busy with my classes (i go to college), and that's about it.. killing time with friends... he left for BC in Dec 15th, and he will be done with school in the mid of June... so we're almost there!!
What about you? Is your husband currently deployed? You just moved to cali right? I hope time will fly for you until ur sailor returns=) And i hope it will fly for me too.. =)

oh, yeah it's like.. 9 months? It's a long one.. but you still have plenty of time till Feb to spend with your husband =)
my bf is assigned to a ship USNS Mercy, and it deployes on May 1sh for Pacific Partnerchip 2010.. And will return in September.. but i hope that my bf won't ship out with it, he is in A-school till June and then will come home for 2 weeks.. but who knows, they can still fly him there..
no, we are not married, and i don't know if i will move down with him.. he wants to though.. but we've been together for less than 6 months, 4.5 of which were BC and Aschool.. so .. we'll see =)
