HI

DramaSoul - naturally you ARE a Pan Mom! And your stuck with us - hehehe.  So glad your family has a wonderful time together. Sorry to hear that the director was blind and did not pick the best of the best.  But you are right - another door will open. Promise to keep you posted on the knee. tomorrow is the second injection - one more on teh Dec 31st. then I get the brace too. Still waiting on it.

Cherly - nice to hear form you. A Caveman Grunt ? got to look that up. Isn't something what our sailor's will send. :).

And speaking of sailors - mine arrived home last night!!!

Had a wonderful breakfast and talk with both sons. I had Mommy Time. Then as I was working in the kitchen, sailor came up and begged for hug that turned into him needing just to be held for a long time. You bet - I stored that memory in my heart.

Kim - I like Plan A -ALL SONS ON DECK AT HOME - you get meat - boys cook it and family have a great time. But then again Plan B does sound better kinda better - pizza and new baby!!!

Ok - need a vote here - Plan A or Plan B for Kim?

I changing my mind - Plan B.

All in favor say Plan B.

naturally - you are always protected Kim Now feel teh vibration through the ground - through the floor through your body and let the chills surround you - open your eyes and KNOW you are better.  hugs

Oh dear Bondie is quiet - wonder what she is up too?

Ok - I need some help - Where is BADma? And some of the rest of you check in please. My gossip tank is low.

Right now sailor and brother and dil are at Baby's R Us. Turns out   no screws - two broken parts, is what was found when they opened the box to put together the crib. So they are getting the stuff needed to fix it. BUT - Toys R Us is connected ! So my boys WILL go shopping. Wondering what else will come back.

So Christmas prep. is almost done. Sailor sent his Dad a  "Caveman Grunt" SMOKER (it's as big as a fridge). Well I guess no one needs to park their car in the garage when it snow this winter  "Caveman Grunt" . 

Manger is up, garland strung, Tree bought & sister is hosting Xmas Day !!

Glad to hear Jack is doing better - so sad when our puppy buddies are ill. 

Heard from our sailor this weekend - experienced his first earthquake - centered in Yokohama - everyone is fine on base. Thank God.

Hi Everyone...I hope all who feeling under the weather heal quickly. May you be surrounded in the light of healing. 

Two of my son's best friends who are Corpsman are in Okinawa with their Marine unit. Since they are sort of like two more of my children (I have fed them so that's what counts, right?), I can make a case that I am a Pan Mom, right?

My Corpsman made it to his new duty station at Ft. Belvoir VA.He drove cross country in 5 days after being home for 3 weeks. The hospital and clinics are only 3 years old and state-of-the-art.  He was told he would be working either in the Sports Medicine Clinic or the Emergency Dept. so, of course, he is working in the Urology Clinic. Ah...gotta love the Navy. Not sure if that's his permanent assignment or if they just put him where they needed him for now. 

When he was home, my daughter and sil came down from WA to visit. They hadn't seen their brother/bil in 2 years. He has been doing CrossFit (he is BUFF!!) and had about a 6 day beard (he doesn't shave when he is home). My daughter looked at him and said to me "THAT'S my baby brother?" She is almost 6 years older than he is. Yeah...he is quite the man now!  It was sooo good to have them all together. My daughter has always been fiercely independent so we have, on an occasion or two (hahahaha), butted heads. We had a long walk and talk in which she apologized for being a jerk (her words not mine). Well, of course, I started to bawl. BEST GIFT EVER!!!

I auditioned for a play but didn't get cast. 30 women auditioned for 3 roles for women. There were 6 men auditioning for the 3 roles for men. Sigh.  It's probably just as well. Another door will open somewhere else!

Tonight is the 5th night of Hanukkah and the candles are providing a soft glow in my living room. It's always a challenge to keep the cats away from the flames. You would think the potential for singed whiskers would prevent them from coming so close. Not a chance. Tupac isn't as curious as Shelby. 

T-Lynn....love the poem.  Let me know if those injections work.  I have a lateral meniscus in my left knee that is non-existent. That knee has had 3 ACL reconstructions over the years. Not ready for a new knee yet either.

I love all the Christmas lights, music and decorations. Ididn't grow up with that tradition and I enjoy all of it. I am planning on driving over to some of the neighborhoods here to look at all the lights. I have quite a collection of Christmas music and I collect various renditions of "A Christmas Carol"...my favorite is "A Muppet Christmas Carol"!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah (and there is no real wrong spelling of that!) and a Joyous New Year. Yes...yes...May there be Peace in the World. May all of our Sailors, Soldiers, Marines and Airmen be SAFE!

Cuca, welcome to our group.  I hope you post often and I look forward to hearing about your daughters adventures. 

I read all posts when I was MIA and sick.

No baby yet.  Son has invited family and some friends to his new house for Christmas.  I was worried yesterday and he said "No, worries, she was cleaning yesterday and laying carpet".  Nooooo!  I am now in charge of meals.  The house came with a BBQ.  I said "Fill the tank.  Mom is buying a ton of meat and you boys are cooking".

If all works out it will be the first Christmas with all my boys since 2007.  Sailors new house.  First grandchild.  Life couldn't be better.  Plan B is dinner in the cafeteria at the hospital or pizza.

TLynn, I think fresh is the best.  DIL has the same diabetes.  Her diet is working.  I will ask her and send you a message.  I know my son gained too much weight when he left Japan.  New moms, His wife is Japanese and she arrived (after deployment) 7 months later.  She shopped the Japanese markets in San Diego and made all homemade.  He ate more and lost almost 20 pounds.

Blondie, thanks for the pictures.  I wish I could have gone. and hugged you, Maggs and your family.  Thank you for doing this to honor our vets.  Did you get to see the changing of the guard?  Where did you stay?

TLynn, I have a special zippered pocket in my purse that I keep the healing bag that you sent me. I was really sick, but I knew I was well protected.

HI

Blondie - if and I mean IF you have q quiet/non busy day - you'll be lost and we won't have any fun gossip. So it can only be one or the other. Yes, I am being my usually selfishness - your gossip keeps me going :) Hugs to Jack

Oh - lost by one point in triple overtime! That ref needs glasses. But share a hug for his upcoming medal. How was the party?

Today off grocery shopping for FRESH foods. My dil is having such a time with regulating her sugar level. Ned a diabetic recipe book. That diet her doc has her on is so weird. One cup of this and 1/2 of this - and eat mostly protein?  Something doesn't sound right.

My dad was diabetic and he had well rounded meals.

Well, rain is still  here - over cast too. Anyone have snow?

some good news to share !!

Sailor called and he IS getting to come home !!!! Still waiting to hear when - but his is coming!!!!! Maybe he will help me learn how to post my pics from photos to fb or to here. then be READY to see pics - I'll let you know ahead of time so you can have your snacks ready.

Kim - oh Kim ???? Update if you can

And other Pan Moms - check in !!!!

Need to get ready to shop hugs all

Hello ladies! No flu here just busy busy busy with all the holiday stuff. Hubby & I took the day off yesterday to shop then went to sons wrestling tournament. He was doing well but had a heartbreaker at the end of the night. Lost his last match by one point in triple overtime! That was a tough one to lose but he's still in the running for a medal. Tournament continues all day today. Once we get home from that we have a party to go to at a friends house. I'm already tired just telling you about it! Gonna be a loooooong day

Tlynn - prayers the injections work and I love your message....so sweet!

Fingers crossed for Jack

Cuka - hope your daughter likes the GW and Japan!

Can't wait to hear from you Kim with baby news!

Blessings to you all!

HI

Flu ? Not here - Knocking on wood HARD !

Glad to hear you had a wonderful time with sailor daughter and that she is safe on board her ship. Gentle hugs New Japan Mom Cuka.

Barb - love the funnies.  Now I have images of Santa's reindeer flying after a catnip party. Here too - almost ready for holiday.

Blondie - exciting trip and so glad it was a great time for you

but so sorry to hear about Jack. Glad he is better - will send out Reiki to him.

Hey - Kim - updates. Baby yet? and how are you doing?

I have started the injections for artificial cartilage. Two more an it does not hurt to get it. Then a huge brace so I CAN walk and case those cub scouts. I was told I have the worst arthritis and need a new knee. But when I was talking to myself about having it done, I heard and felt in my heart - not yet. I feel by getting these injections and the new brace - my muscles will get stronger so I can do that therapy.

Wishing all a great day.

Dear Pan Moms,

Even though we are miles apart

We can hug each other in our hearts.

Wipe away tears with soft caring words

And share laughs and joy with a picture or two

So when you feel a gentle warm hug

Its me - saying Thank you

For caring and chasing away my Navy Blues.

Hugs T-Lynn
