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."

Cecilia it would be nice to have a granddaughter, but like you I will be happy with either as long as they are healthy. I think Daniel is afraid to have a girl. He already told me I spoil Tristan too much and it scares him to think about how much I would spoil a granddaughter...hehe I believe Michael will have all girls...I'm positive God has a sense of humor...LOL

Congrats Pamela!! Giving Love Life.

Laura, you can go to "private chat" - but it is only with one person at a time.
That is why some friends make "private groups" - so we can chat with our friends. Sometimes three or four are in there together - sometimes - it is only one - and you just type your comment and the others reply when (and if ) they can.

OK - I'll have to confess - I made a North Dakota mom assistant in the Texas' Moms group because she knew how to do the playlist. I'll drop her a line to add the two songs. Right now she and her husband are emergency responders to disasters - so they are REAL busy!! She does have tonight off - and she might get online - if she has electricity!!
Thank God for TEXAS winters!!!
Now, hurricane season is another issue - and we won't go there right now!!

Joni, Do you have a webcam on it?
Last April some Moms and the Administrator of this site did a live feed from Flannigan's in Great Lakes. It was sooo fun and funny!!!! We had to type and they had to read - but we could hear them talking!!!
Most people had to put their glasses on to see what was being "said" - and we wanted to see their "chests" because they had name tags with their avatar on it and back then we didn't know every ones name - but we knew their picture!!

Joni, now that you said that - I guess there is a LOT of Missouri music. I didn't even think about St. Louis!! I've even been there. I went up in the arch - it was real neat!! I didn't get to do much else - school trip. We did go to the beer factory.
I need to learn how to burn CD's!! We need some computer lessons here!
-
-
haha - WHAT song is about Missouri??? I will just HAVE to go hear those!!
hahahaha - Joni, wouldn't it be nice to live in Texas September through May - then head to Missouri for the summer!!!
Shell, from North Dakota, put the music here!!! She is one of my friends who joined Texas' Moms (so I would join the North Dalkota group - I think they have three members now)!! She is our computer guru - here!!
I'll find the link to her page and you can ask her! She fell on the ice today so she is laid up for the evening!!

aw - Laura - you HAVE to eat on your way!! Try to stop in between 12:30 and 3:30 and let that poor boy have LOTS of Mom hugs to take with him to boot camp!!!
If not - keep in touch!!!

Joni, YES!!! Cecelia is planning on coming up with my sister and I from the Beaumont area!!
Burning CD's ??? Only illegal if you get caught!! hehe At least that is what the bank robber told me about robbing banks. It was OK until he got caught (on his 23 one). Now he is serving time in the Federal BOP!!
See you Saturday!! I picked up some boxes today at the post office - not sure when I'll get to the store for stuff to pack inside them!! BUSY week!!

Cindy, I know it is a long trip - too bad you can't bring the grandkids!!
The baby was sooooo good in Spring shopping!!
