Yes same here. he mentiones that there dinners are around 530-6. Jajaa he says that he'd wont to sneak in some cookies so he can eat at night hahha but he doeant want to get caught then he will be in big trouble. They have to wake up at 4am to go running and that they have to march everywhere, jajjaja. So u live in southern cali. I do too. Thatll be funny if our significant other are bunk mates jahah.

Atleast they get cookies! Haha. My boyfriend said he already lost a good amount of weight cause of all the PT. That would be crazy if they were bunk mates! I would ask him but he's already gonna think I'm a little nuts for joining a random website and already knowing people in his division haha plus I don't know if they read the letters or not.

Hahaha I did mentioned to him I joined this website so.for sure ill be getting a letter with him saying that hahaha. He did mention that the get the letters during the week but are only allowed to send out the letters on sunday.

Oh really? That's cool they get the letters during the week though, even if they can't respond yet. So where in California do you live?

Yes, he said he got my letter on the 22nd. He mentioned that sundays are like their day off they get a couple of hrs of free time. I live in oxnard (ventura county) like 45 from LA. How about you??

Oh okay. I wonder when he got my letter. He said he couldn't write at all until he wrote to me so he has been writing in a little book explaining every detail and is gonna give it to me whenever I see him next. He gets made fun of for it but I think it's so cute lol. The date on my letter was the 25th and he wrote it on the Navy paper they get. I live in Big Bear. Far away haha.

Awwww thats so cute!!! How sweet of your boyfriend.!! I dont worry I sent my husband some goofy pics his probably being made fun of for that lol. Yeh Big bear will be a bit of drive lol. Hows the weather over there rt now? Over here it jus started raining.

Wait wait I'm confused. You said he got your letter on the 22nd? When did he write you first so you could get his address? I didn't get mine till last Thursday. Yeah Big Bear is pretty far away. I used to live in Orange for a little bit though. It's just windy up here. It's supposed to snow tomorrow night but I hope not!!

Sorry I think wrote it wrong. I first got his letter on the 19 with the address, div and info the PIR date/info and with the guest list. He onlu wrote a little tiny paragraph in the back of the paper info he sent me. once I had received the address thats when I wrote him. Than the letter I received on thursday he mentione he had received my letter on the 22. :-[.

Ohhh okay I get it now. I thought your husband had written you sooner than my boyfriend had written me. I was jealous for a second haha. I just find it to be a little weird that some people have gotten calls in this division and others haven't. I want a call!! I also never got his box cause that went to his mom I'm assuming and still don't know if he put me on "the list" but I asked all about that in my last letter haha. I just hope they got to receive the letters today and got to write back so we'll get them on Thursday again!!
