I am a mother of two beautiful children. I also am a Army wife of 22 years. I am currently pursuing my BA degree in Human Services. We are probably living in our last duty station because my husband will retire in two years. I love music and gardening. I also love helping people. It makes me feel good to help those who can no longer help themselves.

I've been told it's the safest branch of the U.S. military although I know there are risks in all.
If you have a Sailor in the fleet, what is your Sailor's rating (job/specialty) and/or where is he stationed (what vessel, if one)? There may be groups I can direct you to.
There may be other changes you need to make as well, so read and consider each of the changes.
Another change that I recommend that is mentioned in change 1 is to change the ZIP Code to one that is not easily associated with your recruit or Sailor.

If you have a recruit, if you know your recruit's PIR date, go to http://www.navyformoms.com/forum/topics/groups-listed-by-pir-date and join the group for that. If you don't know the PIR date, join the group DEP-Leavin' for Boot Camp in January, to connect with others with loved ones who left the same day and may have PIR together. I also invite you to join Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) and to check out the Pages (found under the pictures of the Members) there. Arrival and What Happens at the RTC will let you know what is happening.

Make at least change 3 at the bottom of OPSEC and PERSEC (Making Changes to Your Profile) (clickable link).
