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."

Son arrived yesterday. We are splitting time with gf. His language is sailor qualified. Can't be too critical though. My baby is all grown up. My job is done. Starting to feel somewhat useless. Sniffle, sniffle. Where's that box of tissue?
My sides still hurt from my fall last week. Left side feels like I have had a week long mammogram.
Lori - Chan is a typical last name for Chinese (or Korian). I don't know about Kit Kat or Kat Kit (isn't that a kitty litter? or a candy? - nothing remotely similar, of course).
All you ladies - have a good time. I think it' wonderful that Wendy and Debbie just jump right in and speak their mind; otherwise, we would have no competition other than Monica and moi for "fastest mouth of N4M" - XXOO to all.

Hi Nor. Cal. Moms,
My Chrissy is in A school @ GL. She is FC. Yes, Looking forward to the M&G on Sunday, will be my third one!
Monica, I hope your sugery goes well. And that you are succesful at quitting the smmokes. I am very anti-smoking as my sister-in-law died of lung cancer in 1997 at the young age of 42, leaving behind my brother and thier two young daughters. ~ Vicky

Guess it was a quiet Tuesday cause it's 6:30 now. Vickyrun, I'm so glad Chrissy got her package. It's not that late. What did you send? (It's probably back a ways, huh). I look forward to seeing you on the 6th.

Well, Chrissy finally got her Thanksgiving package today.

Good Morning California girls!

I'll never bitch about my husbands again. The first or current. Heck, my first father-in-law lent me money for the downpayment for my first house after his son and I were divorced. You gals who raised your children as single mothers are truly wonderful mothers.
