		<description>OK, well then, less flowers and more comedy on my blog might help.
Done!
Now, as for winterizing, there I can help also.
Sort&#039;a
If you can get your hands on newspapers, there&#039;s a quick trick for insulation.
Two flat sheets, glue then together,
on top, tape or glue loosely rolled newspapers...
-------------------
ooooooooooooooooooo
-------------------

repeat a couple of times.
That will create a square of insulation
As for doors, next care package to arrive, cut the cardboard into strips long enough to cover any gaps, duct tape it to the door.
(you can fix ANYTHING wiith duct tape)
I have no idea if we can control what gets put in those care packages, but, be aware of some clowns who think that claymores are packages for their own private stock of C4.
We had some of those fellows in our unit in Quang Tri, and they would remove the stuff for heat cubes rendering the clay worthless (dumb asses exist everywhere)
Anyway, I&#039;ll talk to some folks and see about having some &#039;toys&#039; replaced with utility items.
Window caulking comes in long, clay like strips and will fill all kinds of gaps. If you&#039;re allowed to, poke your apo address in any of my comment boxes, I&#039;ll write it down and then delete it.
I ain&#039;t rich, but, I can send some useful stuff.
After all, I was an insulator for near a quarter century.</description>

		<description>Thanks for a more vivid description than is likely elsewhere. I know you are sick of being told to stay safe (but please do). If you send a *for real* list of wanted stuff, I&#039;ll do my best to fill it.</description>

		<description>Since space is limited and it seems like care packages are not in short supply, what items are needed and wanted most? And, delivery takes a month?
How about books and movies? Maybe some moth balls to discourage the mice? Hygiene items? Hand warmers for the winter coming?

Stay alert outside.</description>

		<description>Blue is a good color. Your eyes are blue, no? Stay safe, relatively speaking. Thinking about you and I hope you get your laundry done!</description>
