OT: Who has started Christmas Decorating

Maureen Miller — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 22:30:15 GMT

Who has started Christmas decorating yet? I want to sooooo bad, but
although there are decorations going up in my town, I'd be the first in
my neighbourhood. So go ahead everyone and tell me you decorate by day
and stitch by night. :)

Christmas cards for soldiers (Xposted)

lewmew — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 20:38:27 GMT

Today, I recieved my first email asking me to "include recovering
soldiers" when I send out my Christmas cards. While I appreciate the
thought, PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL VA
FIRST!!!!

Around this time of year, many emails along this line circulate, often
suggesting you send cards to Walter Reed. As a Girl Scout leader, I
too thought this would be a great, easy service project, but checked
into it and discovered that Walter Reed and other hospitals WILL NOT
be giving these cards to recovering military personnel - and in fact,
they may simply be discarded. There is too much risk for someone to
boobytrap a card, enclose anthrax, etc. The USO also does not accept
cards.

If you would like to do this, contact your local VA hospital and talk
to someone in volunteer services. They will let you know if they will
accept the cards (which they probably WILL, if you call ahead and
arrange to let them know they are coming) or possibly suggest another
group for you to deliver them to.

The key is you need to have a contact or name to put with the
delivery. It may be the volunteer coordinator, who will then
distribute them.

I am not trying to discourage anyone from spreading cheer to our
military personnel, but I would also hate to see your hard work and
money be wasted.

Also don't forget the children's floor of the hospital, group homes
for the mentally disabled, halfway houses, homeless shelters, the
Salvation Army, kids in foster care and senior citizens living in
subsidized housing would also all be grateful recipients of your good
wishes.

I usually embroider birth announcements for friends and relatives. My niece who
just had her second daughter lives in a small NY coop in which almost every
surface is covered. The not too large piece I did for her first daughter is
propped against books. I've found a free Star of David pattern
that
could serve as the starting point for name, dob but what can I do with it
besides making a picture?

New bracelet jewelry site

ToddSvec@gmail.com — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 18:35:41 GMT

A friend of mine has been making bracelets for years and decided to
try her hand branching out and selling on the Internet. So far
interest has been high, she was even on CNBC "Big Ideas with Donny"!
Her bracelets are pretty unique with inspirational messages adorned
with beads and ribbon. I'm trying to help her get her web site name
out there, she could use some Internet traffic. Take a look at her
site at www.jmhjewelry.com

And feel free to email me any feedback and I'll pass it along to her

Sharon Schamber Network

Kay Ahr[_2_] — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 14:40:27 GMT

Does anybody belong? I've watched some of her freebie videos on YouTube. I
know people rave about her as an instructor. The yearly fee to join her
network seems kind of steep. Maybe it worth it? . . . . . I'll probably
never go anywhere that she's teaching.
