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."

Good morning I am fairly new on this site although my daughter has been in the Navy two years. I am currently looking into going out west to visit her and her family. She will deploy sometime this year.

Good morning all, Yes, I got my hugs yesterday, I am a happy Mom. Family party went well, except for my ex being an a**hole. Oh well, that is why he is an ex, lol. Monday I get Chrissy and Aaron all to myself.
Blondie, I hope she gets better soon.

Blondie, praying for your girl. Wish she would go to WR. Happy you finally have help, hope she works out. Good luck with the shopping for your hubby.
Jean praying you get the job. Did they say how long you have to wait to find out?
Guess I picked up a bug on the plane, sore throat and headache, but not running a fever, so that's good. Maybe just my allergies kicking in after being away for a week. Have a good weekend everyone.

Good morning to Everyone
While the interview went really well. The lady I had the interview said that I was going to be a good fit but she had other interview first before she could make a decision. So would get back to me soon. I really hope I got this job. It is really a job I want. It is like the job I got laid off of back in 2012. It really sounded like she took the details for the job right off of my resume. It was so cool. So I am pray it is were I am suppose to land. I will let everyone know what is happening when I hear about it.
I got to have dinner with Christina and Aurora yesterday. It is so much fun now that Aurora is sort of eating food. Christina found these crackers that she really likes and so she eats those when we eat. Christina found out that Aurora doesn't like food that is mashed up. She will eat it if it has subsidence to it. She Christina has been cutting up the food really tiny and feeding her it that way. She really makes funny faces when it is to cold though. Really cute.
