New or Gently used Jackets

I am need of a lot of help. Our Jr. Girl Scout troop is collecting new or gently used jackets for boys or girls. We need to try and do three community service projects in one year. And well our girls went door to door collecting canned goods so we are one down. Just an FYI, in that one night we collected enough food to feed my family for two weeks. That is a family of 7. I thought that was really good for just one night.

Anyways, If you would be able to donate anything, Please get in touch with me and I would love to come and pick them up from you. We need all the help we can get. Thanks so much.

Work and the glory

Okay I just have to talk. I am so ecstatic. Like I said in an earlier post, I have never as an adult read a book, (well big book). Well about two weeks ago I finally finished the Work and the Glory I. I was so excited. I ran over the next day and go the Second one from my mom and I am already on page 211 out of 506. Let me tell you for those of you who read fast, I am not one of those I read slow. I feel that as I have been reading more I am getting faster.

I just want my kids to know that yes if MOMMY can do it you can too. Keep reading even as an adult it makes me feel so good to know that I still know how. LOL Since I am just a mom I haven't had much education over the past 12 years. So I feel like this is helping me.
