[emoji16] I'm headed into the Yard shortly for a day of A-N hoops. Met friends at Grump's Cafe and split a cat head biscuit. It's going to be a fine Naptown day.
With regard to "stuff," I say again, they figure it out. Teaches them some good skills, especially if they are in and out of the Yard over the summer and need various things or uniforms. A precursor to putting things in storage, getting ready for deployment, etc.
We limit our sponsor family to a max of two clearly labeled plastic storage boxes. We have had bad experiences with garbage bags of mildewing damp laundry, the infamous box that had apples in it, and unclaimed stuff. I still have one complete, freshly dry cleaned men's mess dress uniform, a set of service dress blue, plus shirts, hanging downstairs from a few years back. Anyone need 46L?? We text or email the mids pics of unclaimed stuff. They usually reply "not mine." One mid, a firstie, commented that she had lost her bridge coat over youngster summer, and had to borrow one ever since. I looked at her and told her to look in an unmarked box from 2 years ago, which all the mids had said "not mine." She came back upstairs with the OMG face, bridge coat in hand.
End of academic year can be a crazed flail in Bancroft.
