Introduction
Hi there, if you have made it to my page, you are probably wondering why in the world a 35 yr old woman has this template. LOL Let me explain!! First of all I am kimmee, I live in Montana with my hubby and 4 kids. I also have a part time job, answering the phone at a customer service desk. My life is a whirlwind of everything from teenage hormones to 3 yr old temper tantrums. And if you have never worked in customer service, let me just tell you customer service basically means the customer gets to scream at you and you have to like it. So my life is an adventure but I love every minute of it. Still wondering why the pink?? Well the story goes like this. My youngest daughter, Hannah is "THE BABY" I don't know if you have a "baby" in your family but if you do, you will understand where I am comming from. I guess "babies" get passed down from generation to generation. My sister is 24 and is still "the baby." "Babies" get certian perks, number one they never have to grow up, Santa Clause never stops visiting them, and I guess the tooth fairy will cart away their permanant teeth leaving coins under the pillow, when they are old enough for dentures. But we are all guilty of making the "babies" what they are. I can say being the oldest of 3 I certianly did my part in creating the "baby!" I was 11 when the first"baby" showed up, and I found myself at 31 laying my eyes on yet another "baby." Now, Hannah is in every sense of the word a true "baby." She is spoiled rotton!! We all do it, the other kids and my hubby are just as guilty as I am. What Hannah wants, Hannah gets. So, Hannah has a blanket she calls a "silk." She drags this thing all over the house and can't sleep without it. I am completely convienced that she will drag that thing straight up the asile with her thumb in her mouth on her wedding day. The precious "silk" is a twin sized satin comforter. It's purple on one side and pink on the other. It is extremely important that the pink side ALWAYS be showing. There is the occasional time that in a hurry we cover her up with the purple side on top, but don't for one minute think that this crime goes unpunished. We are reminded very quickly that Hannah in fact likes pink! How could we forget something so important? So in the hussle and bussle of everyday life I am constantly reminded that Hannah likes pink. As a matter of fact "I Like Pink" is said more in my house than any other phrase. So in the quiet of the morning after hubby is gone to work and the kids are still sleeping, I am online searching for a bit of quiet sanity, and a new blog template. Low and behold I come across this lovely pink template and the words screaming in my head, I LIKE PINK! So now that you know why I couldn't possibly pass up this template, on to other things.
I created this blog, in the beginning, to share my photos. But as I added photos the blog began getting really cluttered so I decided to expand. I have moved the photos to their own home on a brand new blog page. And I am eventually going to add blog pages for tubes I have made and photo manips I have done. So my little peice of the web has just gotten bigger.
I got a Husky puppy, and she's soooo pretty but lacking a name. Have any ideas?
My good friend Beth asked me to pass this on so I am it's a really good cause so give it a look:
This is my cousin Kenny.. He died at the age of 5 from cancer
He was first diagnosed at the age of 4 after his mom (my cousin) found a lump on his groin.
Kenny's cancer was undetermined. He had gone thru chemo, radiation and clinical trials, and after months of rigorous treatments they thought he became cancer free. One day his kidney had shut down, and while in the OR to insert a stent the docs decided to swab the area in the pelvis where the tumor used to be. Unfortunatley there were still active cancer cells there, and within 15 days Kenny had passed on.
I made a fundraising page over at "Alex's Lemonade Stand" so I can try to raise donations to help fight childhood cancer.
I'm not asking anyone to go out of their way to donate. But if anyone just feels like tossing some pennies on there it would be greatly appreciated. Every penny does count!
The MOST IMPORTANT part about this post to you guys is to help me spread the word.
If you cannot donate monetarily, you can pass this post or the link on to your friends, your families, your coworkers, your websites/blogs/groups/myspaces.
Here are 2 banners that you can toss onto your websites or wherever you feel you want to
I just got off the phone with my cousin and her husband a few minutes ago, we were all in tears as I showed them the page that was created. My cousin is a very special lady, who has gone thru hell and back and still has a positive outlook on life. I wanted to surprise them with this page as Kenny would have turned 13 on march 19th, and I know its a sad time of year. I cannot even begin to fathom what they have had to endure during that long and painful journey.
Here is the link to the page. Please please pass anything u can onto as many people as you can. Lets try to save another child from this terrible disease.
The fundraiser page is open until April 28th, 2008
Thank you so much Kimmee for reposting this for me! And thank you members of AIM..I hope you are all doing well!
