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."

Thanks for the prayers....Hannah's surgery went fine - her doctor will release her hopefully in the next 3 weeks, so she'll be able to go to her A school. Yaaaayyyy!
They will continue to keep a close eye on her for awhile, though.......

Hannah - prayers are sent to your daughter - and to you. Please keep us posted.
Well, all - I've kept busy. Got a scare with the unemployment. Ths working 20 hours a week is good for my other life but there are thos bill things that concern me.
Our county fair is this week/weekend. Dan is working a shift in the church booth cooking. I'm off to Gardnerville, NV to work the Walk to Emmaus.
Then my good friend from Winnemucca is visiting overnight while attending a conference on Tuesday.
The sailor and his family are coming on the first and flying back to Seattle on the seventh. So, you all know that in the meantime I'm cleaning (again) and rearranging furniture. The very exciting part is that we will have ALL of our little family together for the annual family reunion at Topaz Lake. I am praying hard that we will get pictures.
Take care especially in the heat that is coming ~~S~~

Got a phone call from Christian aboard his ship out somewhere. It was very cool but hard because the phone line crackled and there was a dellay. He's working hard and he enjoys being on the sea. Hard to believe 2 weeks ago he was home, but that's the life of a sailor.
Hanna hope your daughter's surgery went o.k.
