The difficult life of a Military wife, part three

The army has thrown up in my livingroom!

That's a lot of gear!


Can anyone guess what movie is playing on the TV?

I have lived with that for almost nine years now. Jake has givin up on his space in the house and has filled his car with his crap. Organized to his liking (like a teenage boy who knows where everything is until mom cleans up).

I deliver pizza a few times a week and drive his car so he has freedom to take the kids places and his car gets better gas mileage than the van. Man! I gag every time I have to get in the car! That gear smells like it was used during WWII and never cleaned since then! Sometimes I think of letting it back in the house that way I can secretly clean it on him and keep dibs on the stinkiness of my husband. But then I see pictures like yours and look into my toy cluttered living room and think to myself " if he wants to stink let him!"

I bought it off of craigslist! And, I totally agree about the smell!! What is that smell anyway?? Seriously! Because Ryan is starting to clear, he is trying to figure out what stuff belongs to the army and what stuff he gets to keep. I am pretty sure he gets to keep all the stinky stuff!

Is the movie a holiday classic? It almost looks like a Narnia thing... but not quite... Can I get a hint?

BTW the stink isn't noticeable after a couple of minutes. We don't deal with it all the time, just for the first two minutes of "all the time."

I wouldn't call the movie a holiday classic. Here's a hint: It is based on a book (not narinia!). I have decided that the stink smell is "storage". It smells like something that has been sitting in storage for a few months would smell.
