He re-did it all when he got back anyways.<br />I had never even heard of themed care packages with the first 3 deployments and my husband is never anywhere where they have abaility to cook or store things or use electricity most of the time....so I don't really bother with that stuff. He's on his 4th deployment now with a little more access to 'luxuries' (yay first deployment with internet!) so I have sent one themed box. It took a lot of effort.<br />And I don't iron. That's why they went to boot camp, so they could do that shit themselves. <br />And I once packed love notes in each of his pairs of underware. Then he came home from 3 weeks in the field and I realized he hadn't found ONE. So I don't because ew. It's better I not know. reccewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13181330296277335441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-15364282903102185152014-11-17T15:27:00.640-07:002014-11-17T15:27:00.640-07:00All of these are the same for me.
