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."

Information
As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

He had grown at least another inch (his Dad had to have his arm under J's to walk side-by-side and be comfortable--didn't have to do that before!!!) and looked AWESOME!!!!! He and S talked, but I think it is now really one-sided on the feelings (her side) and he just wants to be friends with her. He is attracted to her but knows how much she has to work through and she needs to do that before she will be able to really have a healthy relationship, so he just wants to be friends. It would be a LONG time before they could be a couple................I don't think that's where it's headed. I just want them both to be healthy, happy and have peace and joy!!! Love them both and he understands that.................I am encouraging her to really work on stuff.........for her own sake!!! But they had some good talks and he wants to keep the friendship with her.
Well, the goatie people have nice clean pens (cleaned them all yesterday). Found out the mastitis was caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae (my nursey moms will know that one!!!) and they all had little nagging coughs---gee, wonder if that's related???? Anyway, gave them all antibiotic injections and they got pedicures and in general they were all very glad when I finally left them alone!!!! Hahahahahaha!!!!!!! Noticed last night there was no more coughing in the barn...............and they were all feeling better and eating better............got to keep an eye on my pregger Maggie, though--she's due in April and with more than one on the way, she'll probably deliver earlier than last time. Plus I go back to work the week of Easter.............
Will be going back with only a weight restriction of 20 pounds lifting. No walking restriction. Still feel a little pull in the inguinal ligament, but not much. Increasing what I'm doing at home so I'll be able to handle a shift at work. With being on light duty, I'll probably be considered an extra and not counted..........so I'll get my hours.........
Well, got to go milk Dottie and get ready to work on the floor and walls..........have a great Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh

OH how now I miss those days. hahahaha

Lydia, you are forgetting that you have all that work on the garden (prepare the soil, plant the seeds, keep the weeds/grass out, watering, harvesting, cleaning, cooking, putting it up by either freezing or canning for later).........so there is a lot of work with growing it yourself, too.................hahahahaha!!!!!!!
Miss my boy so much!!!!!!!
Hope you guys have a great weekend!!!!

Man grocery shopping wears me out... you pick it out... put it in your cart... when the cart is bursting at the seams you take it ALL out and pay for it just to put it all back in AGAIN! Then you go home and haul 12 bags up two flights of stairs and THEN you take it all out and put it all away.... woooooow I miss my farming days.. just ate mostly from the garden hahahah!!! KK - Im looking for pallets next year hahahah!
