Yes, I know this is late, but I wanted to send you something!! Here is what you can expect, hopefully they do not substitute anything as they shouldnt since everything I found was in stock except for the pack of stamped envelopes. (frown) Order Number is EW-13270852 Order Date Aug 18th 2012... You should receive the following SIX items:

Wireless Notepad (Item 6501011)....
Wool Hat Oatmeal Grey (Item 2501011)....
Sweat Shirt XL (Item 2530065)....
Sweat Pants XL (Item 2520081)....
Grt Sport TShirt 2pack 2XL (Item 3025011)....
Jumbo Playing Cards 1pk (Item 6002007)

I really wanted to grab a few other things for you, namely the stamped envelopes but that was the only item the site kept saying it didnt have in stock. So Ill just send these items for now and hope they help some! (smile) Keep hangin tough and stay strong! If I add anything else to this order, Ill wait and do it when you let me know what you are currently needing the most as I know this post was not exactly new. Much Love, CC (smile)

I also went ahead and registered/signed up with the website you listed for inmate packages so now I can just add things to the shopping cart online anytime I visit the website, as well as check in on any items that were out of stock such as those stamped envelopes! (LOL thats still driving me insane, that was one of the most important items I should be sending!) -smile- I really hope that this is okay for now, I know I should have asked you first which was needed the absolute most at the moment but I dont have time and wanted to send something special on the way to you that you wouldnt be normally expecting in the mail. (smile) I def wanted to get it on its way before I started to prepare for my trip on the 25th, cos Im sure from the 20th forward Ill be trying to make sure Im totally ready for it. Basically wanted to send a nice surprise your way, because you deserve it and are worth it, and I want you to know that most of all. Much Luv and Best Wishes Always From CC

-Adidas socks- do you want crew socks, ankle socks, or the other kind? I wanna make sure even though the number matched up to crew socks I think.
-Du Rag- I could only find one and thats it, and I dont think the number matched up. Does that matter? Im thinking it only came in one color as well but may have been the packaging it was in & I wasnt seeing right!
-Adidas floaters/sandals- couldnt find the right numbers to make sure the ones you wanted were still available on both kinds, and as for the 2nd ones the closest to the Adidas sandals were about 2 numbers off from the item number on your list, and they have an adjustable strap running across the top.
-Wool Gloves- Im sure it gets cold up there and after this month it wont be any warmer, I dont know if they were out of stock or just not listed right now but maybe I missed them or got them item number wrong again. (I wrote all of the item numbers from your list down first, then went to the website from there). Im glad I sent you the wool hat though even though the item number didnt let me specify a color or anything, only came oatmeal grey.
-Norelco Razor- If you needed this months ago, how is the one you had holding up? Or are you real close to needing new one?
-RCA 13" Television- same as above let me kno! I hope yours you have now is not going bad or anything, as that or a typewriter is at least ONE of the two things Id require/ have to have while being there to stay sane!
--Other than clothing, which youll have to let me know whats needed the most for this winter etc (and what is most needed right now for you at this time) the items above were the others I looked into while shopping/browsing the website for sending packages your way. As far as clothes, will you be needing more t- shirts or more thermals (tops/bottoms both) or do you tend to rely on the thermals and sweatpants/sweat shirts together only? Let me know what works best during a WI winter so Ill know. And please dont feel odd telling me, cos Im asking and need to know for the next time I am able to send a package your way! And next time those stamped envelopes are coming your direction whether I have to wait forever for them to be available once again (smile) that was bad luck cos since were pen pals and all, perfect item to send, notebook paper AND stamped envelopes. Now, they had plenty in stock of regular envelopes and stamps that came seperate but only that one item listed under Writing Supplies I think was the single one choice for ANY pre- stamped envelopes on the entire list of choices! I take it you cant have them by themselves or order just stamps alone, right?
-Thermals/PJs/boxers/shorts/socks/and then def shoes of some sort are the only thing I left out so let me know what is the clothing you rely on most even its down to certain colors (white or grey this and that shirts and pants matching when it comes to thermals or sweat pants etc, you know) Let me know! -CC

(SMILE) Last reply for today (Aug 18th):

Just wanted to let you know one last thing: I am really glad I found this post again and was able to send you a package of stuff, Im so glad for that website cos you have no idea how many states LIKE MINE have no options like that for relatives/loved ones down. So please know that it made me happy and truly made me feel good to send you a few of the items off of your list of stuff you needed back earlier this year, and thank God you listed the item numbers too! -smile-

-I also found a photo album that I THINK was the correct one, but wanted to be sure first cos it didnt list a FULL item # on the online website catalog (their mistake, happens alot when doing online web shopping trust me lol). It was the cheapest compared to the other 2 picture albums listed along with it (only had 3 on the site to pick from total) and looked really durable from the front cover/listed its size/dimensions but not number of pages or photos that it held, etc? Sound right?

-Just want to order what you need the most AND even something youd maybe LIKE to have just for the heck of it too. Just like a want that youd enjoy to pass the time. They had alot of other "games" listed such as dominoes and others in the section where I found the Jumbo playing cards. I wish I could have sent more than 1 set of them, cos I had originally meant to at least send 2 as your list said you needed 3 decks of them. I messed up on the quantity and it immediately assumed ONE.

-I have not checked out the book and magazine website that you listed along with this one for sending packages with essentials & such... but I will check it out tonight before bed and see whats up but wont order anything until I find out from you (like with many other items -smile- just being sure!): If you have already gotten or read one of the books listed, ordered/subscribed to one of the magazines listed already for the year?

-Also, any new things you want to add onto your lists for both websites? Please let me know. As I said before, many months has went by since you posted this so I am going out on a limb here and sending stuff without checking first but I feel its allright as it hasnt been THAT long since you originally expected to receive any items as gifts for your bday in May. So thats not too bad! :)

**Please write me and let me know: if your list needs to be updated in any way, added to with items you have since came to need badly or just would like to have (it never hurts to ask as you can now see hopefully! -smile-) and also if you have any extra books or ANY other new mags youd love 2receive now also?
