Thanks for dropping by my corner of the internet; grab a chair and sit a spell. I have all sorts of things to share. Things I struggle with like fibromyalgia, my son’s learning disabilities and trying not to gain back lost weight. Things that make up my work like homeschooling, feeding my family and volunteering. Things I do for fun like biking, gardening and reading. Things I think about like politics and how to make the world a better place. All sorts of things that spark my desire to write.

Haiti
The reports about the earthquake in Haiti are heart rending. Having lived through a natural disaster myself, albeit on the fringes, I have an inkling of what it can be like. They have it far worse, however since they didn't have a good infrastructure to begin with. The White House blog discusses the US response and suggests making a donation to the Red Cross if you want to help. If you have your cell phone on you you can text "HAITI" to 90999 and a $10.00 donation will be charged to your bill. Makes it quick and easy- you don't have to go hunting for a credit card or anything.
