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."

I grew up in MO all my life so I saw it all the time! This is going to be so new to me! It's ok to not really see snow for a while! I don't mind walking around in shorts instead of winter clothes!

I looked it up and it is 76 right now but is supposed to get upto 82! LOL! I so can't wait!

The only problem for me is that we're not getting married for another 2 weeks, so I can't even put in an app for housing. I don't want to wait to long after the wedding to move, I know I won't be able to move on the 15th with him, which really sucks :(
I love going to the gym and walking (especially when the weathers good), i like baking, and i'm a home body too. I'm a big about just sitting on the couch and watching a good movie lol. And when I get there, I know i'm going to NEED to go shopping.. I have no winter clothes. I live in FL and it gets cold for like 2 months out of the whole year! What is the weather there like right now?

Janel - I just saw that it was a special spin class tonight and I am still too out of shape for that! haha I have an interview today at 12 in jacksonville that I am super nervous about and then I have to pick up my husband from C school. I didnt even knew we had a target? that is awesome! where is it?
Britany - haha i feel like i dont have any hobbies anymore since the move here and readjusting has consumed my whole life haha. but I like to go to the gym (even though you cant tell by looking at me and i complain about it a lot), i like to shop, i like to bake. i am kind of a home-body and id rather hang out and keep it low key instead of go to a bar, but i like to go out every now and then too.

the classes are 2.50 per class or 20 for 12...idk about child care you might want to call the desk and find out but to just use the gym its free... they have an awesome weight room and cardio room stuff is pretty much available all the time unless you go during prime time, hope that helps

Or do they have any child care there like the YMCA's do? My husband would be so happy if I was a lot thinner when he made it there and so would I! They girls are going to love the pool too! Oh, I so can not wait till I get there! I'll have a month to workout hard and get a good start since my girls will be with my parents and family! I know it will be so hard to leave them but they will have lots of fun and I will be able to go workout and meet everyone! :-)

Do all the classes and workout stuff cost money? This is all new to me but I would love to really workout more! I will have to work around things when my girls come though!
