those are PEAS in the header there! AND pumpkin pie! oh my!
it makes me laugh just looking at it...i was going to 'fix' it...and
make it prettier...but it's too funny...so i kept it just like this!
i'm hungry, i'm thinking of thanksgiving dinner, and i can't draw.
so this is what happens.....thought if we put enough peas in the
newsletter anyone who's havin' peas at their thanksgiving meal
will think of us!! we'll have some on our table! and we'll think of
us! and YOU! cause we're grateful you're out there!
happy november! happy thanksgiving!

~~~in our hearts!!!~~~
two years ago, thanskgiving time, we lost someone special.
she was young , just 18 years old, depressed and desperate.
i think of her constantly. she's the inspiration behind our
book 'honor yourself.' we wanted to hold everyone who's
struggling like she was in our hearts this month.
if you think that you,
or someone you know could use a
little extra light right now
and are interested in receiving a
copy of 'honor yourself,' we'd
love to gift you with one.
we just ask $5 for shipping, and we'll
handle the rest.
the holidays can be so great. and they can also
be so hard.
if it's hard for you right now, we'd like to reach out.
we all need candles passed our way at different times.
if you think you need one, we'd like to pass one to you.
you matter. please, please remember that you matter.
and for those of us feelin' steady this holiday season, let's
be sure to hold all those feelin' a little bit shakier in our
hearts
this month!
~~~you guys!~~~

we wanted to remind you that we've got holiday cards and hoodies (now in

long sleeve tees and now noah's art! all good stuff for this time of year.
but if you're like me with people on your list who have everything and don't
need another thing but you want them to know they count......well.......
maybe you'll consider giving a donation in their honor! we've made up a
special card for you to give to someone when you donate in their name.
i think it's a great idea, and i've already got
that in mind for several people
on my list! and if you missed ToughAngels.com,
my gosh, please go over and
check it out. there's also art over there that if
you buy, all the proceeds go to
tough angels! the tough angels story totally
stole our hearts. please go over
and check it out! and keep those donation
cards in mind this holiday season!
OH! WE JUST GOT THIS NOTE FROM PATTY! YOU WANT INSPIRATION?!
check this out! straight from patty...........
I have terrific news. I went to the site today with Jaco (pronounced yah-coo),
the man that helped me get the land for Lady Fair. IT is a beautiful location
and they are currently running water lines and Jaco said he would pull out all
the stops to try and get as much done as possible before I left. One discussion led
to another and another and with the money I raised, he is going to let me use his builders,
(without going through a contractor), charge me only for materials, and I nearly have
enough money sorted out to actually build Lady Fair a real house with a bathroom
and electricity!!! Lady Fair is over the moon and tears run down her face and she picks
me up and swings me around the room. I will have a proper contract drawn up so there
shouldn't be any loop holes to fall into. He has also given us carte blanche to use his
office to do counseling work with children. There is a small office that has in the past
been storage, but we can certainly make a counseling room out of it!
you guys did this! YOU GUYS HELPED MAKE THIS HAPPEN!! HOW TOTALLY
AWESOME COOL IS THIS?!!!
~~~donation news~~~
speaking of donations...we wanted to let you know that we continue
to donate bone sighs as best we can! we just supplied the women's home
in houston with gifts for all their graduates! stop on over and check out
their website. and if you'd like to help us spread bone sighs around,
we'd love to have you on board! one dollar to one million dollars, we'll
put it all straight to giving bone sighs to people who need a little light
in their lives. feel like donating? come on over!
as the holidays approach, we'd like to remind you to please
honor yourself
