Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

I know my posts are sporadic, to put it mildly.

I've been busy but not out feeding orphans or saving lives. Just wrapped up in my own world of frenzy.

This past weekend though Shawn and I did pay it forward. We adopted two kids from the Angel Tree. I read their tags and HAD to get them. The boy is 13 and needs pants and wants a telescope. Needs pants -- who needs pants??? Everyone should have pants. But a telescope? Heartwarming. The little science nerd wants to star gaze and wonder and dream as to what may be out there. So he's getting some new jeans, a cool v-neck argyle cardigan, a telescope, and an amateur's guide to stargazing. I hope it makes his day. (And that he really uses it for star gazing and not looking at the cute girls across the way.) The little girl we adopted is 11 and needed a warm coat and wanted an Easy Bake Oven. Uhm, did someone say dessert?? A girl after my own heart. Well, she can cook up a storm this winter. She even has enough refill packs to start a bakery. And a cute coat to boot! I wish I could do more.

Now we are off to Buenos Aires!!! A few days south of the equator doing absolutely nothing and being a tourist is exactly what the doctor ordered. The flight is a bit long but I'll get through it.

Not much all. Hope everyone has a happy, healthy, and wonderful Thanksgiving. Adios!

Hello! I would like to open cosmetology salon. Do you have an experience in this business? There are too many options in beauty salon equipment. Could you give me an advise? What companies are more reliable to buy 4 function facial machine and Electroporation machine skin?
