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."

When is she closing this group?

Not much. How nice that you get to visit your son!

How is everyone? What's new?

Now my computer works! Argh.
Sorry that didn't work out. I waited in the parking lot for half an hour in case anyone showed up -- figured we could just move to another location -- but all I saw were couples who were as surprised as I was to find that the restaurant wasn't open for lunch.
We'll have to try again.

Yes Marlene sent you email.
Due to the heat and no air upstairs 1:30 would be better in case things run late. Temp right now is 90 up there, don't know why the insisted on doing it tomorrow.
They better not sweat all over my new carpet. The guy that was here today ripping up the old stuff was dripping and I mean dripping....oh so gross. Yuck..

We could move it to 1ish, if that works better for you, CTMom.

Marlene -- How about Newington? That would be a little less than an hour's drive for me. I see there's an Outback there. I'm not familiar with the area, so I don't know if that is a reasonable suggestion.

What day and time are you taking about? Since there was no response for a few days I have carpet being installed early sat.like 7am. So if is early afternoonish that would work
