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."

Ok, I have just had the highlight of my week. I just got to hear and meet Capt "Sully" Sullenberger, Hero of the Hudson this afternoon.
What a impressive individual along with being very humble. One thing that impressed me was that throughout his speech he keeping giving his crew, the air traffic controller, the passagers of his flight and the boat captains and workers from New Jersey and Manhattan credit for making everything turn out right. So impressed!
I don't remember the last time I felt like this, so imspiring!

I finished the last of the farmed out pillowcases from Alaina last night.
LZ27 Thanks so much for helping me on Sunday organize my fabric. Now I just need to clean up my pile of scrapes.
Now I need to change the thread on my serger and start on the receiving blankets for the church project.

My grandbaby is due April 21. They're supposed to find out if it's a boy or girl on Dec 1. So we've still got some time. Get the holidays out of the way first.
Yup Paypaster, from Lincoln to Lincoln. :)
My husband is off today and then back to work for another 11-day stretch. I'll get with him as soon as I can about a date in December.
