I forgot as well:

2 parcels from home - possibly my last before moving back to the US :o

Cheetos
4 Carters sleepsuits for the boys
1 pair of jeans and 1 pair of trousers for Sammy
A fleece for Sammy
Chocolate chips
Jell-o pudding mix
and the Maryland drivers handbook for DH!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

A small parcel from a very dear friend back in Austin; it's a birthday present arrived early, so I'm saving it and not opening it until then. I love her and miss her; this is a friend I most likely will never see again in person before she passes away since she is up there in years and I have absolutely zero plans to return to the US anytime soon. I never got a chance for a last visit in the horrible time before leaving when I had so much to do, and I always regret that. I feel like crying every time I glance over at the package; I miss her so much.

a DVD from Lovefilm... not sure what it is, as i've not opened it yet, but i'll bet it's the 2nd series of Seinfeld.

A huge box of American goodies from someone who I don't think realizes just how much it made my day.

mobile phone bill and those annoying credit card blank checks that I just shred every single time.
Good things come to those who wait...a really long time.

An awesome collection of audio CDs for the BF. They're a series from BBC4 about the history of Britain. And the 'Chinese Cooking Made Easy' cookbook from the BBC series.
