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."

woops, I'm tired. So, here is our girl, with the dino quilt that the Mountain Star Quilter's made for her.
Had a good visit with our sailor and his family - got the play structure up (that was a surprise addition to the 'list' figured out how to fix the leak from the upstairs bathroom that rains into the kitchen (part ordered), wrong part for the car taken back - correct part ordered, motorcycle (Honda 90) fixed - gads I can't remember anything else. Oh, the most important part - nap time with Brianna!!
Thursday himself heads out for the annual family reunion @ Topaz Lake. Please remember the annual rummage sale for the Downieville church over the weekend. I'll be there on Friday helping to set up.
Sorry, Can't make the 8th - I'll be speaking @ a UMW event in Cameron Park. I'll be thinking of and missing you. Blessings ~s~

Oh the joys of evacuations.
If you every want to see what hard work looks like, just be around a Navy yard when bad weather is coming in and they have to get ships ready to be moved. Its amazing at how well they all work together!

I wish I could join you on the 8th but I will be flying to Fort Worth for a conference. It's been busy at our house with my husband attending AA meetings multiple times a day and losing his license at the same time. I'm not crazy yet, but getting there.

Catching up on the news I see Neil Armstrong passed away.
Neil Armstrong - Naval Aviator, Astronaut, American Hero, the first man to walk on the moon... a modest and humble man. May he rest in peace, and may our young continue with the same passion and love for our country!
