Good morning all! I hope everyone is doing well. Well, my sister AND my aunt received a letter, but not me. (sad face) I was actually jealous! Lol! I was glad to hear that he is doing well tho and seems to be in good spirits. A phone call or a letter this week would be soooo nice. *sigh* Just missing my son and getting super excited about upcoming graduation. SN: waiting for the mailman. Lol!

When you get a chance you will have to be the one to add the word green to the Ship 07 Div 078. above. It has to be the person who started the page.. thankyou. Hope all is going well.

Margaret - I added the word green. For everyone else this is the color our group is so we can recognize each other at the meet and greet and PIR. It is totally optional. Since it is winter in Chicago, wearing a scarf is pretty normal and won't be flashy at all. i figured I would just wear it with my winter coat. I will probably order the one from Lala because I like to support small businesses and one of our own. Well, people are getting phone calls this week. I think our group is going to be one of the later ones because there are guys who got there on 1/4 and some on 1/9. Not sure what my son did for those first 5 days, but I am sure I will find out on PIR day. Also, since we already got the 30 minute call 2 weeks ago, I am afraid there won't be another one. I am prepared for that reality. Letters are just fine with me.
