The Playstation2 games and DVD movies that PigRigger and AIC financed via Paypal and eBay are in these boxes, as well as Christmas cards from Coop and ShowMeMom and Tunehead54. I spent all the Walmart shopping card that musicman sent and then some...
We’ve had some other nice contributions and I’ve used some of the money to help make these purchases and to reimburse Nina0113 for shopping she did for me while I was sick. I will be posting credits at end of the year.

Note with my email address
See 1072, 1080 and 1081 posts above for contents of about 28 boxes mailed out to the Engineers at Baghdad by kattracks, mathluv and me.
I noticed that we all had sent envelops of hot chocolate mix, and realized that with a bit more help we could send enough for all the troops in this large battalion.
If 4 volunteers would send 10 more boxes of 10 envelops each (at around $1-2 a box), then we could make that goal. Anybody want to sent hot cocoa mix to the Engineers?
VeniVidiVici and I are still hip deep in stockings for MI at Kirkuk, but I finally found some green glitter today and so will probably have mine out by Friday. How you doing VeniVidiVici?
