#2: The Goodwill


In the early hours of 1902, a Methodist man by the name of Edgar Helms decided to open an organization, gathering up torn and broken items, only to be fixed by people who needed the $. Today, this organization earns billions of dollars every year, using 84 percent of the profit to provide those in need with jobs, training & support. Proof >>
Now I'm going to tell you why I enjoy the bright blue character's company.


Sweet, funky clothing that is CHEAP
I told my mom I wanted to go the Goodwill after Christmas- yes, for me it was PART of my christmas present. (I wanted some unique clothing pieces that couldn't compare to the plain black turtle necks and sweaters I got.) And I was ready to embark on the adventure of not knowing WHAT I would find. Well, this particular trip was one of the best, granting me 3 blouses, 2 sweaters, a dress, tee and two pairs of Keds for all under 20 bucks. Miracle? Indeed.

One find: An Anna Sui Dress.  How much you may ask?
   $3    
Another: A Kilamanjaro Safari shirt, with Tanzania & many happy zebras displayed proudly on it.    $1     : )

#1: My dog, Bianca

I like my dog Bianca.  She is a beautiful white Maltese, six pounds, ten smacking years old.


This is muah, and her on vacation this past year at Corolla, North Carolina.
She is nine here.  Such a cutie.  Hasn't aged a bit in years, if I do say so.


Bianca, A.K.A. "Bebe" lying down on her fluffy white blanket. (Or mine, but does it really matter?) That's a Carebear, I know, and let me just point out that its HEAD is bigger than Bianca's whole being.


A few years ago.  That bunny in her mouth... she has done many things to.  This is after it had lost an eye, tail, stuffing, dignity...
