Hey girl well my freind said well when you order the food you should already have made an apt. cuz when you order the food it like that weekend that you get your visits. But she gets them like twice a month but i heard for other people of my friends that they only get them once every 3 months. So im not sure ill try to find out for you. And why are you nervous!? Girl i would be having ants in my pants!hahahahah!

After your visit please let me know how it went. I may be traveling from Tennessee for a family visit. I can't seem to talk my husband into it. He said he has heard bad things about it...cleaness and stuff. I just don't think it is that bad. Please let me know. Thanks

Its really not that bad. Trust me I'm a germaphobic! I go as far as to wearing rubber gloves to the grocery store. No lie. If I can handle it anyone can. Really this is such a great program and I hope your husband would reconsider.:)

So Nikki you get family visits at Corcoran!! Tell me about them how long did it take to get your date??? I am so excited thats all I have been thinking about! What can I bring??????? I have no idea... are there pots, pans, plates, silverwear or do I bring all of this stuff?? I heard that it actaully goes very smoothly at Corcoran 1 and its not too dirty! I am a total wierdo when it comes to germs so that was one of the first things I asked! ANd I was told taht level one trailers will be back up and running in a few weeks and they were just all redone so maybe we will get a brand spakin new one and wont have to stress too much about germs!! My husband just keeps telling me not to forget shower shoes!!! I was like WTF are those I have never worn shower shoes before!!! But I guess there just like flip flops?? Well thanks ladies SOOO much you have no clue how awesome it is to have you guys to talk to!!!!!
