So basically I hate statistics.

Because they say that me and my husband have about a 1% chance of not getting divorced.

I swear I am going to prove them wrong. But this uphill battle is tiring and frustrating, and quite frankly I am flat out exhausted. With my husband gone for 12 hours of the day monday-friday and me working 45 hours a week, a new puppy who needs so much attention, I feel like she is a human child, and us drowning in bills, sometimes walking away seems like a…

When my son was at bootcamp I had no problem getting him mail.  Now that he has move to A/C school I have neither recieved a letter nor an address.  Is this normal. I know his school is on the same campus as bootcamp, but have been told that he iss no longer at the same address. 

My husband left December 13th and the first few weeks were by far the hardest. Still now I get down, but I don't let him know that. When I write him letters I keep upbeat and positive because I don't want him to feel bad for leaving me. I make sure he knows in every letter that he's the strongest, bravest man I know and that I am SO proud to call him MY husband! I use to cry everyday,…

Working a double shift today and I have my break in the middle, I checked my mail when I got home and THERE IT WAS!!!  Letter #2!

Who ever I got the questionnaires from THANK YOU!   She used one this time... She is impressed with the Navy lingo I have learned,  says she doesn't even know what I am talking about. And I have the wonderful pleasure of still teaching her things... HA! Mom's rule ;)  There were terms I have used that she doesn't know about, and I got them all…

ABOARD USS CARL VINSON

It has been rough today.  Buying birthday cards for my daughter.  I feel so bad for her she has spent the holidays in bootcamp and now her birthday.  I miss her so much.   

I am not sure what to expect next..............I think this will be a great career move for him, he is currently in college for law enforcement (1st year), and he just wants to do more.

He is my only child, and I will definately have that empty nest thing going on, and am worried about how they get up their face and scream at them, I just think that is health discipline, but I know that will happen.

does anyone out there have a loved one in ship 09 div 075? if so, have you heard anything from them besides their box home and their grad info?

I checked the mail today, and there was only one lonely envelope in there... a letter from my love ♥.

These were written on the 26th + 27th Postmarked on the 29th. They are much shorter than the last ones... and alot more depressing. He is wicked homesick. He put in a request to see the Chaplin, he is concerned that I have not written, but I have, ALOT! I hope by now he has gotten some. I mail at least one letter per day and walk it to the mailbox. I am on…

I am writing this post about my oldest son who is 18 and just left for BUDS training in Coronado, CA yesterday.  I miss him so much already.  This phase of training will be much longer than the 2 months of BC and 2 months of Pre-BUDS at GL.  When my son was in GL, we were able to visit him a few times after BC, and he was able to come home and visit a couple of times.  The one advantage in BUDS is that he…

my daughters boyfriend is graduating next month. We are so full of question. Can anyone please give us recent input.

How much Liberty will he have on the weekend?

What hotels are closest to the great lakes base?

Would you say that he will have time for family and his girlfriend too?

I got my first few letters from Tim today and I wanted to share how he is doing...
