about raggedy

I am very proud of my son who left 2 week ago for boot camp with the Navy.  If you believe in prayer please be sure to say one everyday for our men and women who do what they do so that we are able to do what we want to!  If you don't believe in prayer just keep these men and women in your good thoughts.

email me your address please

Rageddy... Please remember your son in boot camp. When I was in boot camp I received nothing from my family. I can tell you it makes ALL the difference.

God Bless.

Let's hope you get snowed IN, so at least you can get there. :)

Send me his address so I can send him a card, too, huh? My email is julesongolo@gmail.com or julie@wall2wallphotos.com. I would love to just drop him a note to let him know that our family appreciates all he is doing. :)

Raggedy... Hope yer doin' OK and I hope your son is OK in boot camp. Let me know if you need anything!

Ripcord

Girl, I haven't seen you all week. How are you doing? Are you adjusting a little more? Drop me a note and let me know, ok? xoxo! Jules

Hi Raggedy... When I went to boot camp we weren't required to roll up our "civies", as we called them. My guess is that he was in a hurry... LOTS of that in boot camp!

why I am in Atlanta:

http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/6350331/

Hugs to you.

there was a reason on the pants leg, but I can't remember...If he gets to write this Sunday, you might get aa letter mid-week. We live kind in the country, out from Fuquay, and when he wrote on Sunday's, it was usually Thursday when his letters arrived. First week, they are learning a lot of history, rules and regulations, etc. You are going to be amazed, when you see him again. Don't hesitate to ask questions. I keep a journal.I can look back and maybe find some answers to some of your questions. Don't be surprised if he gets sick. They are all crammed in together, and as I recall, if one got sick, they all did. But they take good care of them. My son got held over for about 3 weeks because of a sinus infection. Turned out OK. He was fine, it just took awhile for them to process all his paperwork. He left IL, and went to Pensacola for about a year and a half. That's a GREAT place to go visit them...just depends on what he's going to do. Let me know when you hear from him.

wow, I had forgotten about the box...there was something weird about my son's clothes when they arrived, but I can't remember-maybe pants legs rolled up, or something... As I recall, it seems like maybe the 2nd Sunday they were there, they were given about an hour to write...then it took 3-4 days for his letters to reach home. Did you get the book? If so, read ahead a chapter or so, it will help you to know what to expect. this week, he's stenciling his name in all his clothes, doing a lot of PT...people go in at different levels of physical abilities, and swimming abilities, so there will be lots of evaluations, learning to prepare for inspections, how to fold and iron their clothes, shine their shoes, etc. they do lots of running...have blue sweatsuits...they call them smurfs! Sometimes they have to "earn" their right to call home or send letters. Check that Navy website every day. There will be people with kids a week or two ahead of yours and they can really help

Sweetie, I totally understand. If you have his address, write him regularly. #1 wasn't a really big writer, so I didn't get a lot back from him, but he got all of mine, and I know that made both of us feel better. :)
