Remember to Help Others

Good Day Folks!  Hope you and yours are doing well.  We are doing better but crazy busy.  Natalie and her bro Ed have finally gotten over the chest cold bug.  Thank goodness, for it is really hard to keep them and their bugs away from our Nana, so far so good though...knock on wood.

Natalie's been a lil discouraged with her rehab progress lately.  Hard for an athlete whose mind says "let's go" but the body says "hell no".  She did progress to running in the therapy pool and kick board.  Of course, great to progress to new tasks....but she just can't see it yet.  All she can see, I'm not on the court yet.  

Today, will be a great distraction.  As promised, I will spill the beans.  Just dropped Natalie at the airport, from which she will fly to New York for the day.  Yes....I said for the day.  Our hot shot has an important meeting today, which of course will have a major impact on her 2015 and future.  More on this as it develops.  Fingers crossed and prayers please!

After a great weekend of football and an Ugly Sweater Poker Party, kinda of hard to think about being overly productive today.  Will attend lil Ed's first football banquet as an assistant coach and then pick Nat up from the airport.  Tomorrow, will pick up the new puppy we will foster and Nic from the airport.  Then Thursday, we will travel to Ft. Benning to witness Robby's graduate from the training he is completing, something we will cherish.  

I guess today may be slow, but the week will be very productive.  As we all ready for the holidays, let's try to remember to help others.....I mean really help....hands on.  Not just write a check and mail it....although that should happen too.  I hope you find time to call or visit a local school and ask the principal if there is a student or family that needs help.  Trust me, not only will the experience be very rewarding....but 100% of what you spend is going directly to who needs the help.  And the principals know who needs help and makes sure they are double dipping for help.  What is double dipping???  That is a family that is getting help from more then one organization.

Time to be semi productive....Love and Blessings....Sherry!
