Giving Texas a Hand

I have been to Texas a few times and have enjoyed my visits there. The destruction and devastation that has taken place in there the last few days from what I have seen does not look like the place I remember. It makes you think that it could have been you, in that situation and that things can change in an instant. I am trying to figure out what I can do assist and if you want to assist as well, here is a list of organizations that you can contact to see how.

I am not endorsing any of these organization, but sharing resources of who is taking donations. Check out these articles about how not to get scammed and on how to ensure your donation goes where it is supposed to in Forbes Magazine and The New York Times.

I pray that the people of Houston stay resilient and strong not only through the storm but also through rebuilding.

If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7. The longest sleep I've ever had was I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If you know any great places to go or see in the state of Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall. Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
