I am on a team named Lois's Angels for The Relay For Life. This is our 2nd year and we are still learning what fund raisers work. The containers are donated and I paint on them and then the team sells them! Total profit for the Cancer Society so I love doing them but I am running out of ideas.... <br />So far we sold 6 out of 8 at a church event! We were so pleased!! Then 7 more showed up at my door. Take a look and let me know what you think:)<br />And don't forget to donate to the Relay For Life / The American Cancer Society.

After being confined to my daughter's room for over a week, I am ready for SPRING....<br />Poor thing, she was sick,sick,sick. First the doctor said an intestinal virus but when she didn't get any better but worst he decided to test for salmonella food poisoning! UGH! She lost a total of 8 pounds taking her down to 101. They just let it ride its long ugly course with lots of fluids.<br />I am happy to say she is much better in just a few days of solid foods. Back to school to make up lots of homework.<br />The doctor just called to tell me the results of the test WAS NOT salmonella!!!!! It was another type blah blah... THANK GOD! <br />Well at least I gave her room a good cleaning and went through all her clothes..WOW did I have bags and bags that don't fit or she just doesn't like.
