Katrina.....sadness....my thoughts

I'm just at a loss. I want to say how I feel about this horrendous destruction our fellow Americans are facing right at this moment. I wish I could go over there and take in at least one family and help someway in the slow relief effort. All I can do is look from afar and donate as much money as I can. I rallied a few co workers together and was able to donate $200 dollars to the relief efforts yesterday. I know it's not a lot but I hope that it will help in some way.

While at work, I was brought to tears reading all of the incoming news and photographs of the disparity. How does this happen? I just can't fathom their current situation and I just don't know what I would do. My heart hurts for all of them on both sides of it. The people waiting for help and the people trying to get that help there. I'm sure it must seem like an impossible task.

I thank GOD that I have my husband, child, family and all of our regular day amenities. We take those everyday things like showers and clean bed sheets for granted. I, by no means, live in the lap of luxury but I live a good life and I'm thankful for everyday that I am here on God's green earth.

I don't say "I love You" to my family and friends everyday as I should. I don't want to miss those opportunities anymore. So to all of you, I wish you good health, a happy life and lots of love............if you can find it in your hearts to dig deep in to your pockets and donate something, anything to the American Red Cross or Salvation Army or any organization that is helping with the relief efforts. Thank you.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!!

It's May already? Where has the time gone? We are almost halfway through Twenty10! I've been playing with paper and glue lately and recently came up with this layout featuring the new Spring Tags from Shabby Shic Crafts! Loving the awesome Springtime colors and cute designs Veronica and Albert have come up with this time around. This silly little picture of me and my daughter was taken from one of those token taking machines that take your picture and the computer "draws" it out on paper. You know the the ones they have at Chuck E. Cheese type of places? Of all the pictures I have, this has got to be one of my favorite ones I have of me and my baby girl when she was about one and a half. A little closer. loving the cluster above the picture. To celebrate NSD, Shabby Shic Crafts and the Design Team Members are hosting a fun Blog Hop and giveaway! Leave a comment for a chance to win a package of 30 fantastic Tags from Shabby Shic!
