Jappyj-yes they also do two previous PIR. I went to previous groups discussion and asked for photos and was lucky to receive some. Understand they are also now available on line. Dont know how that works though. Boot camp moms should know though

jappyj,

Yes, they will perform at their own PIR. I hope you are able to get a good view of her performance!!!  Wow, you really got quite a bit accomplished.  I could use you here to help me with all this sorting and organizing!!!!

Last night I was so tired.  Went to bed just after 9:00.  Fell asleep fast and then woke up at 3:30 and proceeded to have a panic attack worrying about everything I haven't finished yet, questioning where the rest of this stuff is going to go, second guessing my plans, on and on and on.  Finally fell back asleep just after 5 and then woke up again at 6!!!!  I'll be glad when I get this finished!!!!!

Comment by Jappj on July 27, 2014 at 7:29pm

Just a quick question that has probably been answered  but does div 940 perform at its own PIR as well as the two previous PIR ? 

Comment by Jappj on July 27, 2014 at 7:28pm

1. finished door signs.....(pictures to come)

Comment by Em'smom on July 26, 2014 at 1:42pm
Hope everyone is doing well. I am waiting patiently for the next call from my girl. Everyone seems to have a lot going on, my prayers are with each and everyone of you. Stay strong.
Comment by Oneofalot on July 25, 2014 at 8:15pm

Anna you and I both. I keep my phone lose. My boss even teases me saying your still here. I won't be missing work for the baby though. With being new I don't want to jeopardize losing it.I starting to like it more. Its like a game to see how fast do I run out of work and have to get my boss looking for more.

Air conditioning to air conditioning....with a swim or two:)

Catsmom and spyder,

So sorry you guys are having all that heat.  Please be careful - that can get extremely dangerous!!!

Jean,

I'm sure all of you out there would have wished for the rain to put out those fires.  Happy Christina's last day of work is coming soon.  Hope she gets this time to get rested and all ready!!!!  Can't wait to hear the good news!!!

jappyj,

Wonderful to hear from your girl!!!  And that she is doing well.  Congrats on those super scores. 

BessieBoo,

I am soooo sorry for you, your girl, and your family.  I know this kind of event impacts everyone.  I felt the same way as spyder did - why wasn't she just sent to hold company and given time to heal?? But I understand from your later post about it just coming out again and that it might require surgery.  I'll send up prayers for your girl that if they do have to go that route that she will experience complete healing and that her knee will be stronger!!!  I hope that things work out for her and you will be back on here telling us good news in the future!!!!  Like I said for Catsmom's daughter - dreams aren't dashed - just detoured for awhile.  Please keep us posted when you learn more!!!

Comment by Catsmom on July 25, 2014 at 2:49pm
spyder, that is my goal too. Hopefully week after next. Love Santa Cruze! 116 yuck! When my son went to school in Phonix, they had to close the Airport it was 128 ...I don't know how you do it!
