Package day

So I played some hearts with the guys earlier in the day, and then went to dinner. And when I got back, there were 6 packages piled up by my bed! Holy cow, it felt like Christmas. I spent an hour opening and sorting stuff. Joan Sriver sent a huge box of stuff for the troops, although I am very tempted to syphon off the Rice Krispie treats. The folks at CHO ER also sent a huge box, loaded with goodies and a questionable card. Faith, you are bad, bad, bad. Sister, Kathy, came through with Clif Bars, nuts and other goodies. Thank you, Dad, for 4 more books. I am starting to wonder if I will get through them all! Maggie, not to be outdone, was finally able to arrange delivery of the first box she prepared, dated August 23rd. So I never really give up hope on the arrival of boxes. It was a very fun evening, and needless to say, the pantry is totally restocked here. So anyway, things here are just fine. We are eating our Halloween candy early. Well, I am eating most of it. Thanks to everyone for your packages. They really made my day.

Is someone starting to get a little spoiled out there?
Joan is one of the ladies in my book club - she is a real angel, and has become a real advocate for supporting the troops. Thanks Joan!
