OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Well I cleaned the house and ran/walked my four miles all of the things I did with my girls but now do alone I have to say all of the things I use to get mad at like them being brats and not helping me do chores or clean their rooms or give the attitudes they gave me sometimes, I wish I could have it all back and have them here but I guess that's selfish . I thought raising four kids was hard and really the hard part is raising them and making them your whole life and then having them leave. I know It is what is suppose to happen but boy I'm lost I guess it might be time for me to go find something to do like find a job oh well I'm hoping we get a call soon :)
