Day 16
Tasha M. gave me an amazing care package!
Tasha M. (last initial only since anyone can read this blog) sent me a care package! For those who don’t know, a care package is something friends and family send from home to those deployed. It can include anything, within reason, that customs will allow in country. A lot of times you miss the simple things. Homemade cookies, anything to flavor the neverending supply of water you have to guzzle down, a way to write home, etc. When you’re in another country you miss the little things that remind you of home. The handwritten notes you can reread to your heart’s content. Pictures of family and friends you can put up in your room or on your mirror. Tasha sent me a message asking what I’d like. I gave her a few suggestions and she just ran with it!
Included in the package: One kicka$$ San Marcos Texas state shirt, five notebooks (did she know how much I LOVE notebooks??), pens, stamps (THANK YOU!), a magnet, a list book (I’m a list NUT, so I’ll be needing this), enough crystal light to keep me going for at least six months (THANK YOU!), a card, a handwritten letter (you guys don’t know how important those are) and cookies. Made with love. Thank you, girl. You made me feel amazing. And I can’t thank you enough for the joy you’ve brought me.
While you guys on the other side of the pond are sleeping, it’s back to work for me. I’ll see you all later. I’ve got some cookies to snack on *WEG*

Kewl. Looks like the boys and I have a few more days before you’ll be needing a cookie-care package from us!
You didn’t think we’d forgotten, did you?
