The joy of giving

   Sometimes when dealing with our own economical issues and daily crisis we forget that as bad as we may have it there are others that have it even harder.  I was on one of my forums today and came across a posting for Kiva.  I had visited their site a couple of years ago but did not know or understand exactly what it was.

   Finding out more about it and the fact they are giving a free trial of $25.00 that I could donate to whom ever I wanted I decided to check it out.  What could it hurt they did not require I sign up for a dedicated monthly subscription.  Even better the money Kiva does get they do not keep, they use it all for distributing to the field partners who distribute the loans.  They also do not charge interest.

   For every person that signs up through my link I get another $25.00 that I can donate towards another person.  For my initial donation I chose a woman in Kenya who is asking for a loan to buy supplies for her Cafe.  The link below you can find out about Joyce and her story.

   The money you lend you will get back as the loans are repaid and you are then able to re-loan the money to help another person.  Though $25.00 may not seem like a lot to some it can go a long way in other places.  Personally I do not have an extra $25.00  at the moment but as soon as I do I think I know what I will be doing with it.

  Again if you are interested please use my link as everyone who signs up I will be able to help that many more people.  It is a difficult choice as there are many seeking.  Hope you all have a wonderful week and your Monday feels more like a Friday.

Really feeling this today.

Someone pass me the Advil.

Elkhart General Hospital

   I have to say I was not thrilled about going to Elkhart General, in the past I have had some very bad experience's including an extremely sadistic doctor.  This time the staff was prompt, friendly and the place was clean.  I think Memorial taking them over was a good thing.

I love this!

It has been so long ago, I am not so sure it is true anymore.

More excuses

   Lots of excuses as to why I have not posted in the last while.  I will just say that with the new business it has been insane.  I will find the time to post the reviews I have been promising this weekend.  I decided to give Julep another chance and glad I did.  It was a lot better than last months box to be sure, I have as well received my first BirchBox and Glossy Box so reviews on their amazing products will be posted this weekend.

   I have my first glam bag coming, I got my dishwasher today! Woo hoo!!  Cook top by Thursday and the house is still coming along slowly.  We have gotten accounts approved for our business through a lot of exciting companies.  Lip Service, Tripp, Chic Star, PopSoda, Medusa's Makeup and several others.

   Go check out the website I have listed a few more things.  Mainly been working on setting the accounts up, but in the next couple of weeks everything should start filling out nicely.

Been busy

   It has been a crazy few days, we finally have all the cases of wine out of the house and it has made it possible to move!  I can now start getting more things done with the house, Eric has been released from the Dr to return to work. All I can say is after eight months I will be glad to have my insurance back but sad because I have adjusted to having him around so much.

   I did receive my first Birch Box and will be writing a review on the lovely products from that, an update on my order from the Sugar Works company and a few other items that I have been trying to get a review done on.  I may have to take him to Texas to get his work truck so start looking for the above mentioned and other things mid next week.

   Enjoy the weather everyone!
