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."

Ok.. spongee is sitting here.. on a fireproof safe.. lap top plugged into the hardwire modem sitting on a nite stand surrounded by boxes... Sleeping on floor.. and a walking trail from room to room. Husband comes home in a couple of hours and thinking.. what can i do tomake it look like i've done something? put the computer desk together so I can have a comfortable surrounding chatting away! yeah that's it.. so my butt doesn't go numb from the stupid safe being so little...

LOL . . . I say you hook the computer to that big screen so you can sit comfortably on the bed, propped up by pillows . . . you'd be able to see it from anywhere in the room:)!

When you wake up in a cold sweat because you had a dream that the N4M's membership went up a 1000 in one night.
True story. I woke up (and JUST double checked the site to calm myfearsnerves... it was just a dream right?) Why am I dreaming about Navy for Moms?! It comes with the addiction. haha.

Maybe not 1000 in one night CC, but you gotta admit that over 1500 in less than a month (24 days since #5000 came on board!) is pretty darn impressive. =) Guess all the recent press and that commercial is all paying off, better returns than the stock market for sure. Yea, many more addicts on the way!! Bet we'll be at 10,000 by Christmas! Sweet dreams. :-)

I Love this! The kleenex story is so me. Every time I am on this site I cry. I also laugh. It really keeps me going through rough times though. To try and talk to other people about it, forget it. I will admit, my poor back has been really hurting lately from sitting on this so called comfortable computer chair. This is all sooooooooo true!
