ginmar's CO is now in Afghanistan and a number of us on her flist have signed up to send him "care" packages including me so today CM and I drove over to the PO to pick up a box and then drove to a few stores to buy goodies to put into it (I already have several books and CDs) and sometime next week we'll send it off.
CM just walked in with these long (18"?) filet beans she'd planted - it almost looked as it she'd gotten a green little brother for her cornsnake Maizie Mousebreath *g*
I'm busier on my vacation than I am in RL but boy am I having fun.
