Personal and Off Topic

 I was hoping maybe some of you might consider sharing my blog post I put up tonight. It's not weight loss related, but a couple of dear friends of mine are in need of warm thoughts and prayers.

Thanks.

I always try to remember no matter how bad off I may have it (or have had it in my life) there is always someone else who has it worse.

I am by no means perfect, but at Christmas I always try to get 1 or 2 names off of the local "Angel Tree" and buy presents for them. Animals are my weakness, so throughout the year, whenever I see a collection jar for the Humane Society I always put something in it....even if I only have change.

And I always give to the Salvation Army, and the local fire department. It sounds like a lot, but usually donations from me (since I live paycheck to paycheck) are either what change I have on me, or a dollar or two.

It's not much, but I try because every little bit helps! 

There is one thing I have wanted to do for awhile...I want to help in a food bank. After I heal up from my surgery, I will try to arraigne it for next year.
