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."

Yeah I am feeling the same way. Plus my nephew just left last Tuesday for bootcamp too. So it is going to be a lonely Christmas for me and my sister. It is just going to be the girls, my daughter and niece, this year at Christmas Eve. I get very emotional too but no one has really been unsensative towards how I feel. They just say I feel so bad for you, don't feel bad just keep my sons in your prayers and all those who won't be with loved ones too. I try not to think about but ya know as moms we can't help it. They are cramped and I don't think people realize how small of a space they really have. we had a good thanksgiving too.

Well I heard from my sailor yesterday. I hope you all got phone calls too, this past weekend. He sounded good and it was so good to hear his voice. I sure did miss it.
I got his stuff sent out for him for Christmas too last week. I know he may not get it in time because he still hasn't gotten my Thanksgiving card with his sisters pic in it. I told him he will be getting a few things soon, hopefully.
Well had my final in my lab today in Radiology. I was a nervous wreck and I was hoping to do better than I did. I got an 80% on it. I wanted a 90 or so because an 80 in this class is only a "C". I was not happy. I should say a little dissappointed in myself. I did study but the one thing that got me was that stupid bucky tray you put the film in. Couldn't get it in the right spot. DANG IT!! I also forgot about putting the feet together on the pelvis. Oh well it is what it is and it is all done. Can't fret over it.

Lorraine, yes the one I got has 2 stars on it. I can't wait to get it.
Msvines, I was going to get mine rackpacks but he had already ordered them. I just got an email that his hickory farms is being shipped too. I hope he gets his calendar and that in time too. I just hope he enjoys all of it.
My sailor and his brother sent me flowers for my birthday. My birthday was on Sunday and I got flowers yesterday from the both of them. They are so beautiful. I was so surprised. Then I got an email from sailor and he asked if I got my surprise. I had already gotten them by the time I saw the email. I will post a picture.
