Package Overload
Hi folks,
It appears that we might be overloading our favorite soldier with packages--so much so that he is out of space! (Hey, I know I'm guilty. I send him something almost every week.) And if we are ALL doing that then his bunk must look like a mini-UPS Store haha. (Actually my second bedroom looks like a mini-UPS store with all the packing supplies!) So perhaps, we should all cut our shipments in half... If you send packages weekly, cut back to every other week and send a letter or a card in its place. He is sharing his excess "stuff", but apparently the other soldiers in his unit also have a lot of left-overs, so there's not a lot of people to share with! I have heard from other soldier's families that they are experiencing the same issues. Plus they have a rodent problem over there and if there is a lot of food laying around the rats get to it. I know Rory does appreciate all the love and time people are putting into these packages, but also doesn't want them to go to waste.
On the other hand, if excess packages are his biggest problem, then I think he is doing pretty good under the circumstances. :)
I hope everyone is having a good weekend and is getting ready for GAME 2 of the World Series! Go Cards!

Rory,
Hey did you think of taping all those boxes together to make more shelving/a mini dresser? Or how about laundry bins? You know you can make just about anything out of a cardboard box. Lol...
Be safe sweetie. We love you!
