Ladies.

First off I want to wish everyone a very safe and happy 4th of July.
Secondly I want to address the registration for reunion. As of today we have only recieved about 60 registrations. This includes - the guys, and guests. This is WAY below average for this close to reunion. Has your spouse sent in his? Or have you sent it in? If not why not do it today, while we are celebrating the birth of the greatest country in the world. So many have fought for the right for us to celebrate our freedom. So come on and send your reunion registration in NOW! If you find later that you can't make it, then you can request a refund. So don't wait until the last minute and end up not being able to enjoy the commraderie, banquet and fun of the annual reunion. And if you do wait you will end up paying a late fee. And nobody wants that to happen.
SO SEND IT IN NOW!!!!!!

LADIES,

THE QUILT SQUARES ARE GOING TO BE 8 BY 8, WITH AN ADDITIONAL 1/2 INCH FOR SEAMING.
ALL MATERIALS (FABRIC AND FABRIC * * *) WILL BE SUPPLIED. PLEASE DO NOT NOT MAKE YOUR SQUARE AT HOME. IF YOU DO IT WILL NOT BE INCLUDED ON OUR QUILT,
WE HAVE ONE EXTRA HOUR USE OF THE ROOM TO ALLOW FOR DRYING BEFORE I PACK THEM UP FOR TRANSPORT HOME TO PLACE TOGETHER. THIS IS WHY WE ARE USING THE * * * AND NOT THE PUFFY TYPE OF PAINT.

BARB

Admin reply: the **** should have been PENS

Hello Everyone!!
Can't wait till September! Can't wait to be with old friends and making some new ones. I'm stoked!!
Anyway, I have a question. How do we go about ordering cookbooks? I want at least 3, but I don't know how to get them or how much they cost, so please someone let me know.
I have been feeling much better and I'm bored to death. Rick retires June 30, 2012!! I'm excited and scared to death. I may kill him if he stays under my feet. This will be a unique situation. We'll see how it goes.
Hope to see you all in September!!!!!
Sarah

Admin reply: Cookbooks will be $15 each and available ONLY at the reunion. They must be paid for useing cash or check only! NO pre orders will be available.

I was pleasantly surprised to receive the lovely prayer shawl from the Women's Group shortly after my husband, Bud, died earlier this year. It was packaged so beautifully and the colors matched my personal living room chair perfectly! I keep it draped over the back of the chair & I use it a lot. Thank you all so much. What a great group of women.

Hi Everyone!!
I'm very sorry for not being as active this year as I would have liked to, but so much has happened (LOTS)in the last 7 or 8 months, my head has really wanted to explode! But, no luck, just have to deal as best I can. My health has become a very large part of it, and then Rick is going to retire in July (no telling how that will work), along with being the mother of 8 kids, with 8 grandchildren and 3 more on the way, my brain is toast.
For the most part life is confusing. Since I am pretty much a shut in, all the traveling and having to try to go to Doctors I don't know, and places I've never been, it is just plain scary. Strange. But, I do have a strong "You will not beat me" attitude, so one day, I'll come out on top. Just not today.
Anyway, to the important stuff. I am not very diplomatic, ever, so to anyone who thinks or feels that we should disband, be more quiet, give them our best ideas, things WE thought of and showed them we absolutely have made a big difference in supporting our men as well as each other, tell them to back the ____ off. We were the ones that were left here to keep the homes and prayers running every second they were gone, and held them when the nightmares came home with them. And, some of us joined them, doing whatever the military wanted or needed us to do, whenever and wherever we were needed. Don't dismiss us. We were important then and we are important now and so are the things we do. Tell 'em to back off and stay off.
Anyway, that's my opinion. Time for more pills, so I'll check in later. God bless us all!!

Hello ladies: How is everyones summer going? Schools out this Friday! wish I could send pictures my gladiolus are huge and extra beautiful this year. Wish they could stay till memorial day. Hummingbirds are back, and love watching them. Everyone have a happy fun filled summer, anxious for Orlando but that would mean summer is over and old man winter will be tapping us on the back! Take care all.

Despite what any of you may hear, the Women's Group IS NOT folding and I am NOT stepping down. NO MATTER WHAT!! EVEN IF WE NEED TO FIND A DIFFERENT PLACE TO MEET!

There are those who do not feel we should operate, that we do 'support' the 11th as they feel we should be. What more we can do - I do not know. We already turn over all our money each year to them leaving some of us to fund everything else we choose to do.

They don't feel we should be 'selling' anything as it takes away from the Quartermaster store and that we are really more like an outside 'vendor' and that is prohibited under their by laws.

They want to take away our constant item (and the item we thought of), the lanyard and have it placed in the Quartermasteer store. NO WAY> first of all we get these at an super super price (like less than half) as the owner of the company we order from and I went to school together and does this as a favor to me. Will we give out this info - NO.

So ladies please come to the meeting this year and show your support and get involved. It really does take more than just a couple of individuals to operate and accomplish things . WE DO NEED YOUR HELP.
