Haiti Relief Auction goes live tomorrow

Baby Maddie will go up for auction tomorrow! Please help us help Haiti, one stitch at a time!

Help for Haiti from my Daughter

I thought I'd post an email from my daughter that I thought might interest the knitters out there or those who know knitters. We can all help the people of Haiti one stitch at a time!

Those of us who are knitters are Knitters without Borders. That said, for the remaining month of January, 50% of all profits from my sock patterns will be donated to MSF (Doctors without Borders) to aid in emergency relief efforts and medical services. I know some of you aren't knitters, so please pass this email down the line to any knitter friends you might know. I've also included a link to Ravelry, where MANY more designers are offering similar efforts. If you have already donated... Thank You.

Happy New Years, my friends!

As I review the past year and look towards the new one, I'm reminded of how important friends and family are to me. We traveled 3000 miles to a new home, leaving behind many wonderful friends as well as moving farther away from our extended families. However, since our relocation, we have met new people, started new jobs we love, and established our new home in Northern California. We have enjoyed our many outings, some with visiting friends, welcomed daugher Jacqueline and her husband Jeff into our home, visited Tabetha, Jeremy and the grandchildren several times, and quite frankly, fell in love with our new locale.
Some goals were accomplished, some not, and some I'll continue to work on in 2010. I want to stay connected to family and friends, reconnect with lost ones, and build new friendships in the upcoming year. We stay on our path to become debtfree, living and loving the life of frugality. We look forward to continuing plans for Adrian's wedding in 2011, continuing to nurture our relationship with the grandbabies, and continuing to explore our area.
I have a long list of projects I want to complete this year and perhaps will keep a running tally in a sidebar. I want to not only continue to build my business but to work on marketing. I'm my own worse enemy and a terrible business woman. I miss many opportunities to promote myself and I seldom even carry business cards or brochures! Thats my main goal this year, promote, build, market!
I hope your new year is filled with love and happiness, health and hope, and more than anything, I hope you use the year to chase your dreams.
