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."

Thant is definitely me today!! Oh well, it's raining outside, the weeds will still be there, only longer. I've managed to get some laundry done so no one is going to go around naked tomorrow. They might have to forage for themselves tonight though if I don't get off soon!

When you realize it is like Monk's favorite saying on his TV show--his ability,like N4M, is
"both a blessing and a curse." Here I thought I was over my shoulder strain from being on a keyboard all day when I changed jobs. Now, both my dogs (aka feet) hurt from standing on concrete, and my shoulders have to be stretched every 20 minutes per the chiropractor's orders. Plus, had to put a new caster on the old big butt chair for the computer.

You know you are addicted to N4M when your teenage daughter tells you to get off the computer, because you are on it more than she is!!! (This is what my daughter says!!!)
