Phone calls, lots of phone calls

Drew called this morning at 3:15am. Then he called again this afternoon. It always make me happy to hear his voice, but I'll feel better when he's settled into his new home. I went to get xrays this morning and even though I'm not supposed to take them, I've been taking motrin and tylenol. It's the only thing that knocks the pain down enough for me to function. I stopped and bought a box at UPS. 6.50 or something-OMG for a cardboard box! I'm glad I'll only have this one big shipment once. The rest it will be just cupcakes and stuff like that. Russell's cousin John met him in Baghdad and although I'm angry at him for getting Drew into this shit-we are glad he's not alone. He sent 2 pictures. Still wish he was home. All in all we've heard from Drew about 8 times since Tuesday. I really hope we can get him a phone that will work over there. I really hope he meets lots of friends. I really hope he stays safe and comes home.
