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."

Trusted Sitters!
Hey Ladies!
My husband wants me to enjoy a night out with him sometime but I can't do that because I don't have anyone here to watch the children & seeing as we just moved to San Diego area we don't know anyone we can trust to watch our precious lil rugrats at such late hours... I personally would rather stay home but it has been two years since I've done anything that didn't include my babies & I guess it would be nice to cut lose for a few hours! This would be for a late night job if you know a good responsible trusted baby sitter please send me some info via message! Any recommendations?

I could babysit for you! I used to do it a few years ago. I worked at a daycare at the gym for 2 years, and also as a mother's helper for a family for 3.5 years. (She was a SAHM but I watched them at least once or twice a week for her to run some errands and for their date nights) Did a few other babysitting jobs here and there, as well. I'm currently going on 18 wks pregnant with my first. I've lived in San Diego my whole life. I live in East County right now. Hubby is at boot camp right now, and I left my job in mid April. I've been thinking about doing some babysitting again for some extra money. I am going to his PIR on the 8th and will be in SF mid July, and San Antonio to visit him at A school in early September, but for the most part I am free to babysit any time. Date nights are definitely important!

Yeah we definitely should all try to get together for a playdate or something.I am not in any desperate need for a sitter right now,but I anticipate my husband wanting to have a date night when he gets home from deployment.I am going out of town late next month,we could get together before I go,or after I get back but that won't be until the end of August.I wouldn't want you to have to wait that long for a date though Mrs.Platfoot lol.
