For a day off I was sure the busy little bee

Moved lawn

Volunteered at the packet pickup area for the Chicago Half-Marathon. Didn't eat lunch until 2:45 because the group of volunteers that went to lunch first, were gone for at least an 1 1/2. Thank goodness they weren't with TNT

After volunteering, went to Borders spent money

Came home (which took forever!) and found $150 dollars in donations in my mailbox!

Checked email and my local paper the Streamwood Examiner is going to do an article on my efforts

My uncle got a job! He's only been unemployed for a month but had only been working for a few months after being unemployed for nearly a year. I won't mention names but your cell phone dollars should go towards companies starting with a V. :)

agy, i sent the 'salon' articles to debbie and asked her to send them to you. i will send them directly to you, but i think i need an email address. let me know.
keep being you--it works when one allows themselves time. life isn't an instant drink where one only need add water..., but i know you are aware of that.
ciao!

thank you david. my email addy is rhondagy@juno.com. i'm amazed how at one can put off thinking about life then, bam!, it hits...guess i shouldn't try to avoid it. but then life wouldn't be life if one had to only add water. thanks for the articles.
