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."

I just got home from running out in my SpongeBob flannel pants and Uggs to get a newspaper. Boy is it cold. I think I'm going to make a big something for us to nosh on all day on. Don't know yet, but I'll think of something!

I am making potato soup for this cold winter's day! Yum

Cleaned out frig.....Cream of Broccoli Soup with Grilled Cheese. That's it!

need to do that.... have biology experiments in there

polorfleece rudolph reindeer pants and big slippers to go get more wood ... hahahha  warming up outside

Love it!

Not sure what I am making yet today for dinner.   Today is a chili day but my husband is such a good chili maker I could not compare.   Maybe something like homemade chicken and dumplings.   It is so cold her as well and I have already taken a nap I was up at 5 a.m., went to Walmart and home.  I was tired around 10 so I laid down for an hour.  I am going to get my daughter off the X-box and get her to help me do what I call our 30 minute clean,  pick up, wipe down and the vac.  It is only 2 of us here now so luckily the house is not a total mess.   I may venture into my son's room today and just see what he would and would not keep.

ok.... since im new to the division.....i see colors assoc with everyones div group....what does it mean...???  

That is the color of the ribbons we will be wearing at Graduation to support our SR's.   Lalaribbonqueen does them. I can find the info for you if you would like to order.

ah ok....  i ordered my ribbons long time ago...  she's sending me new div #  and it happens to be navy blue with gold lettering YAY... ordering a scarf w/ the div # on it in the same colorscheme

I just had to laugh. . . You know we've relaxed  ALOT when we can talk about what we are making for dinner and our flannels.  A few weeks ago we couldn't even think about dinner and what we were wearing/doing was irrelevant.

I, personally, am making crispy baked chicken, mashed potatoes, green/yellow beans, and a spinach salad. Oh, and I have no flannel/fleece pajama pants.  

I will be at the Marriott starting Friday night.  We are staying at the Navy Lodge on Thursday night.
