I'm sorry I couldn't find one which would let your sailor stay over. I can either cancel or swap to your name, either way is simple enough, just let me know.
I grabbed the one room, put it in my name, and I can change it to yours easily enough. I can change or cancel until the 4th of April without losing my points.
Hey, let me know the dates you need for san diego, and I will look at availability. It's spring break, so not sure what is avaialble. I can book right away but you'll have to trust me with your name, email, and phone. How many people? No promises, but I can try. I think there's a room tax for CA.
Trey - Thanks for posting on the BC Mom page. One of our new members accidentally posted a message as a reply to my comment to her on her profile page, instead of to the group. Sometimes people get mixed up on the group pages if they are posting on their mobile devices versus a computer.
For A school, it is most likely after they are done on the Friday before Christmas, and school will likely resume on Jan 2. It is always a good idea to have them back at least a day early, especially if flying into some place that might get shut down due to snow!!
Looking at the calendar though, Friday could be either the 16th or 23rd, so hard to know.
Thank you for the encouragement Trey about my son being ASMO'd. It is scary because you don't want them to get discouraged but motivated. All we can do is be supportive and hope it does give them a kick in the rear!
That was me commenting to you on Tommy's Facebook page. I use Katharine here ... it's my middle name and I like it better than my real name ..... Lisabette. My mother thought she was naming me the French version of Elizabeth ... I guess someone who calls the wine merlotte really is not great with French .... even though she was raised in Canada and took French in school for 12 years.
Trey - would you share your information on bidets with me please. You may reply to this comment or send me a friend request. I am wondering what brand, style, etc. you al found. My husband and I have been talking about installing one of those toilet attachments. I was curious as to what you had.

Hi thank you.
I'm sorry I couldn't find one which would let your sailor stay over. I can either cancel or swap to your name, either way is simple enough, just let me know.
I grabbed the one room, put it in my name, and I can change it to yours easily enough. I can change or cancel until the 4th of April without losing my points.
WorldMark Inn at the Park, studio "Sleeps two"
Mission Valley doesn't have the weekend there's one called Inn at the Park, it's a studio with one bed. These go fast.
I saw your dates, check out on the 17th or 18th? Check out is usually around 11 or 10 am.
The available resort is Worldmark Mission Valley if you want to look at it online.
Hey, let me know the dates you need for san diego, and I will look at availability. It's spring break, so not sure what is avaialble. I can book right away but you'll have to trust me with your name, email, and phone. How many people? No promises, but I can try. I think there's a room tax for CA.

Hi Trey of course you can here is my number, Bud has talked to a few Moms about being in and about certain things.
602-326-5663 he doesnt mind at all.
thanks for friending me!!
Hello, I sent you a friend request. My son is at GL in A school. He will be stationed in SD as well.
I will private message you later, so I am sending you a friend request to accept. I also homeschooled, I will share some info with you.
For A school, it is most likely after they are done on the Friday before Christmas, and school will likely resume on Jan 2. It is always a good idea to have them back at least a day early, especially if flying into some place that might get shut down due to snow!!

Thanks for the information!! I appreciate it. I will show it to my husband.
