Yes I know it's been a few weeks. I don't think I am asking anything you haven't asked too. Where is the time going? December flew by so freakin' fast it is actually scary. I have been having issues with my computer, Mozilla actually. Then the blog wouldn't let me post for whatever reason so I had to fidget and reload, upload, upgrade, run, save and who know what else. Whatever it is I am finally back.
I sure hope that you have had wonderful holidays so far. If you are in Los Angeles you know that it has been weird cold. I am not a cold weather person so I am very uncomfortable. I am very lucky to have what I need to keep warm, I can't help but think about all those who don't and I wish I can help them all. My friend Linda Offray is the CEO of a The Shepherd's Door a Domestic Violence Resource Center in Pasadena. www.shepherddoor2001.org This year they collected gently used coats for the mother's of the children receiving toys from her program. Often when a woman seeks shelter and help from a domestic violence situation they make sure the kids have their things and mom leaves with the clothes on her back. I found the coat give-away a cause one I had to get involved. I was able to give away a few coats and hope it makes a difference. I imagine coats will be accepted at any time so if you feel so inclined as to want to part with a coat, please contact me via email. sukimoonpie@gmail.com; unfortunately with my computer acting up I was unable to get the word out earlier.
I guess if nothing else I'd like to just share my gratitude for the things I have. I have to tell you, after the fire scare on December 1st I am looking at my material things a little different. Perhaps as 2012 comes barreling in I will sit down and post a few things I am doing differently to be better prepared for emergencies. I did okay for having to evacuate immediately but could do a few things better. Tamara suggested that I share some organizing tips throughout the year. Some of you who know me personally might know that I am a fairly organized person. Tamara wants me to show you pictures of my art room and share my storage ideas to help our fellow artist and friends who are; let’s say ‘clutter friendly or organized challenged. So look for them as the year begins.
Okay friends I’ll catch up with you later.
Whatever you do, do it in color! Suki
