New Year, new ideas....big differences~!

I am sorry that it has been so long since I have blogged.  I am a REALLY busy girl.  If you have me as a friend on facebook you will see that I like to hang out with my friends as much as possible. But, I just wish the facebook would talk about everything else that I do...

First of all.....  ONE WEEK TO VEGAS~  ONE WEEK TO VEGAS!  GOOD LUCK PAULI! 

Updates:  I have now committed (I think) to one community project: Tree of Knoiwledge.  I work with a wonderful woman, Marlene Graves.  She likes to include me all sorts of planning that goes on in the organization.  I like this partnersip because they are closely tied with the FLICKINGER CENTER...  That center is where I do A LOT of my volunteering.  Let me try and explain..  The Tree of Knowledge believes that books can make a difference and so do I.  So when I help the Treee of Knowledge gather, collect, buy books a lot of those books go directly to the FLICKINGER Center (after school program).  So I believe I have settled in.

BUT...that does not mean that I am not out working hard doing great things for other organizations.  I recently sent in my Yoplait: Save a lid to SAve a life.  I sent in 110 lids. 

I also sent goods to the soldiers overseas through the group that I am in at the American legion.  We also gave goods to the Women's Domestic Abuse shelter.  Every little bit helps.  I am waiting to get up to the Ronald mcDonald House in Iowa City and turn in all these pop tabs... I have a lot!

I continue to make a difference and I hope you do too..
