Treasure Box

I bought a little box on clearance at Hobby Lobby for $2, and altered it to make this Treasure Box.


Comments are appreciated! Happy Monday, em

My top-ten prize pack arrived from Hallmark yesterday. Check out all the yummies:

But BEST of all ... the cards!

This article ran on the back page of our employee newspaper, BJC TODAY:

Aunt Paula sent me this super soft robe, it rocks:

It's not every day you get to come home to so many goodies.

How sweet it is

My co-worker, Donna, brought me this yummy treat Friday, how cute is that? Laura brought me a fabulous pastry also (forgot to take a pic, dern.)





The number of email responses I've received since the contest is crazy! Another thank you to everyone. luv, em

Perspective

What can the Global Fund provide in Africa with the $4,750 that it will receive from Hallmark? This amount can cover the cost of antiretroviral treatment for one year for 20 people living with HIV; provide 450 rapid tests to detect HIV and deliver instant test results; cover the cost of 2,083 single-dose nevirapine treatments to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother to child; and provide a year's worth of school materials and daily hot meals for 10 children orphaned by AIDS.

Thank you for hanging in there with me. Looking forward to tomorrow ...
