Melinani BOB Hope Parking Options!

So out of all the places to blog I figure this is the best, none of my friends in the states will read this and I can vent all I want. Now I am not a violent person, but OMG the parking at BOB Hope Primary at Kadena, well... WHAT PARKING! You have a choice go there at 2pm and wait until 3:05 pm when the kids actually get out and get a parking spot in front of the school. ( I do this sometimes and sit and listen to music and draw or write) Option 2 Park in the visitors parking in the housing area… Continue

Laura Lee A lil sad to admit...

That we may lose our orders. We went for the medical clearance and I will admit..my oldest son (who has ADHD) and I (who am bipolar) got raked over the coals. I was so upset after leaving that I just came home and cooked and cooked and cooked. Due to my illness there is apparently a pretty good chance we will lose our orders.... I was told by a couple of people that if my medication cannot be provided by my base then I will most likely get told no b/c other bases probably dont carry it as well.… Continue

Amanda Allen OK. Life sucks and I don't even know if we're coming now.

I am so frustrated and at a loss for words. We've been waiting for weeks for our orders. DH re enlisted so we'd have time to go to Oki and everything. Weeks we've been waiting. EFMP done. Everything in our humanly power we have done. Unless you know something we don't??? The orderly room says they have been asking the MOS clerk for over 3 weeks about our orders. So just so happens DH gets a hold of the MOS clerk to ask if there is something he missed, since the orderly room says they just dont… Continue

Daniela 30 days until my PCS from Okinawa

So, here I am at the point I have read so much about. I am about to leave this island. I have thought about this point in my life a lot; and .....I am happy. I am happy to go to a place where I can settle down. This island is beautiful and I love it. I have been blessed to have spent three years here, but settling down sounds really good right now. I could buy some houseplants and watch them grow. Remembering how said house plants grew just everywhere outside on Okinawa. I could buy a house and… Continue

Amanda Allen Frustrated

Life feels like it is at a standstill. Dave has been locked into his orders since early July. He graduates in about 2 1/2 weeks and the orders still aren't here. We can't do anything until they are published and I want to bring the kids to Jersey to visit family before our big move. Is that asking too much.??? Report date is early December. EFMP is done, cleared or whatever we are just waiting on the orders. It just sucks. We just moved here the end of May and yes I knew we'd be moving again wi… Continue
