Busy, busy, busy...that is me!

Another week has flown by and I have not been on to update my blog. I hope once life settles down again and hubby is back to work and Jordan is gone home and back to school, maybe my life will settle down enough that I can get on here daily with an update. We have been busy running to Winnipeg, etc and I was able to meet Dianne for a short visit yesterday. The only bad part of the day was driving home in that terrible rain and wind. It has rained here all day today.

I have most of my things organized for the Pink Party tomorrow night and I think I have enough help to decorate a bit tomorrow afternoon. Now I just need to pray that people will come out and support me in this fundraiser. Time will tell.



Dorothy sent me a link to the new pocket posties blog she has set up so please take time to check that site out at http://www.pocketposties.blogspot.com/ or click on the pocket postie link on my page to the right. While I was picking up items for the Challenge for Life walk yesterday, one of the girls asked me what the red ribbon was on my purse and I told her it was in memory of the soldiers and so I told her about the pocket posties and I left 100 posties for them to sign. I sent out over 3,000 posties last month and I plan on continuing to do this until our troops come home from Afghanistan. I have received several letters from soldiers that I have been writing to in the Chosen Soldier project and they are so thankful for all the encouragement, cards and gifts from home. If you are interested to signing some posties, let me know and I will mail some to you to be signed. It does not take long and all you need to do is write something encouraging or stamp your postie and mail it back to me. You too can make a soldier smile.
Three more of the soldiers have died this week in road side bombs and even if we disagree with the war, we can show support to our troops. Think about it, they could be your son or daughter.
