DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Hi all,

I too saw the date had changed to Monday as well. Looking forward to hearing her voice again! It's been a long time since I spoke to her!

Gabby - yes, I will be at the meet and greet! I'm looking forward to meeting you all!

And yes, this Florida girl broke down today and bought a coat, hat and gloves!! My blood has thinned out so much since moving here... Inhad to get something especially when I saw the forecast in the 40's. It was quite humorous though, 86 degrees here in Florida and I was trying on winter coats!!

Her is another chuckle for you all... Last Friday, I was contacted regarding my daughters security clearance...the agent wanted to come and interview me at my office.... Now that would be just fine except that on Friday we were all dressed in Halloween costumes!! I was Lucille Ball - the vitametavegimin girl! How funny it was when he interviewed me!! Everyone was saying it was one of those forgotten I Love Lucy episodes!! Ha! At least it will be a fun story to share with my sailor.

Four more days and I am on a plane!! Can't wait!!

I'd really like to buy wraps instead of coats. I am taking my turtlenecks. I'm sure they're anxious to talk to us too. By Wednesday I'll be crazy with excitement!

Hi everyone,

Somewhere along the many sites and groups I've read, I stumbled across something for us Moms to do while our sailors are doing Battlestations. The site said to light a navy blue candle for them and wishing them the very best.

So, I went over to Yankee Candle and what do I find but a Navy Blue candle called Stars and Stripes! How appropriate was that! So I will be burning my candle brightly tonight and tomorrow (since we can't pinpoint the exact day). Regardless, someone will be doing Battlestations both nightS!

Looking forward to getting there on Thursday!

Hello all, especially Lynn. 

Lynn, I received a request of some sort to correct my profile.  All in all, I have not figured out how to do that so I gave up.  Also, as my sailor graduated on November 5th, I have missed the constant communications with you and the other moms.  Therefore, I am unsure how to get back to the first and former communiques.  I'm so confused.  Always good to hear from you and thank you for your work with N4M.  I greatly appreciate your being available.  Happy Holidays and I look forward to reading more.
