Nothing More Than Apathy

Posted by Laura at 7:53 PM

So. Where have I been? Well, to give you the bare bones of the story (which is all I can give you, and honestly I don't know a whole lot more)

I finally started feeling better Thursday (which is also when I was contemplating a hospital visit)Well, guess who shows up at my house on Thursday? The police. My brother was arrested, and we're still not really sure what's going on, other than the fact that whatever he did (if he did it) is very serious.

To say I'm a wreck is an understatement. It's been a very long weekend and is looking to be a very long week and maybe months. The blog is on hold right now. I'm sorry.

Glad to hear you are at least feeling better.

I just wanted to pass along this link. I remember you saying on a few occasions how hard it was to find work where you lived, I kinda though "ya right"... but I am sorry, obviously I was completely wrong. The article is a little long winded but it gives outsides a better idea of the economy there.

I hope that everything has worked out with your brother and the only reason we haven't heard from you is because you are busy with babies and school.

Donations

Couple people have mentioned donations, either to me as a baby present, or to organizations, and from time to time I also participate in raising money for certain organizations (and you guys were a HUGE help raising money this past year for relay for life.) So I thought I would create a side bar where I could either put boons or links to various organizations. The "donation" button to pay pal goes to me, so PLEASE be aware of this - if you're looking to give to an organization, do NOT click the pay pal button. If you're looking to give a baby gift/thank you for the blog gift to me, the paypal is the button you want to choose. March of dimes: I cannot find a button, but here is the link to the page where you can donate: https://www.marchofdimes.com/giving/support_general.html?GIVE=*&AmountToGive=Other&x=85&y=18 First Candle (SIDs research): http://www.firstcandle.org/about/get-involved/donate/ Make a wish: https://secure.wish.org/ Operation Smile: https://secure.operationsmile.org/site/Donation2?df_id=4040&4040.donation=form1 Also, if you are looking for a great Holiday Gift (especially for a person who has everything) think about the heifer organization, which you can find out more about here: http://www.heifer.org/site/c.edJRKQNiFiG/b.204586/?msource=kw3102&gclid=CKTCpraOs6UCFUVqKgodPWMyYA If you have an organization you would like to see here, please email and let me know. I'd like to change them up every once in awhile :-)

Blog Laws

Hey guys- to cut down on any drama in advance (though, I can't say I have had any drama, probably because I have the best readers) here are my blog "laws" (I thought rules sounded kind of kindergarten)

1.) Like it? Comment about it. Love it? Comment about it. Hate it? Comment about it. Say what you want, when you want, just please make sure you're being respectful. You don't have to like me or what I write, but you don't have to be mean either. Any mean comments will be deleted (though I don't think I've ever had to delete a comment.)

2.) Want to talk about another blog? Go ahead. Have something to say off topic? Go ahead. Feel free to talk about whatever, just again, be respectful.

3.) I'm always open to suggestions. I can't promise that I'll take all suggestions, but I will listen to all of them.

4.) I will be returning September 8th and posting once a week on Wednesdays for now. Once I settle in, the posting schedule may go back up - we'll see how it goes!

If you have anything to add, let me know!
