How one practical woman sees it. Thursday, September 26, 2013. Because Edmonton Cares - Diaper Duty X 2. We're back at it again! Because Edmonton Cares will be volunteering at the Edmonton Food Bank on October 16th, 2013, and we are aiming to bring a boat-load of diapers and formula with us. Ok, maybe not a boat-load but for sure a car-load! Last time we had our Diaper Drive. Our goal this time is to collect 2,500 diapers and at least 25 containers of formula. With your help we can do it!

How one practical woman sees it. Sunday, May 19, 2013. March and April Book Reviews. Better late than never, here are my book reviews for both March and April:. 1 World War Z - Max Brooks: This was an awesome book! I found it to be a pretty accurate account of what I thought would happen in a zombie apocalypse. It's done in the format of interviews with average citizens, politicians, military personnel, etc. The story is told in such a factual way that makes it believable and entertaining at the ...I had...

How one practical woman sees it. Wednesday, November 6, 2013. A Job Well Done. I just wanted to send a quick post out to everyone who contributed to our 2nd Because Edmonton Cares Diaper Drive in support of the Edmonton Food Bank. We had our first company donation of 1,800 diapers which was a huge boost! We also had several people who asked their friends and family for diapers/formula in lieu of gifts at birthday parties; they raised hundreds of diapers and multiple cans of formula.

How one practical woman sees it. Tuesday, March 4, 2014. We're lucky. Not everyone has such a large family who want to help celebrate these special occasions. It also means they get royally spoiled! Don't get me wrong, it wasn't an easy conversation. There were a few tears at first because they didn't understand why they give gifts at parties and didn't get any back. Understandable, they were very young. It took many assurances that they would still have new toys and clothes, just not as much.

How one practical woman sees it...: It Hurt
http://onepracticalwoman.blogspot.com/2014/05/it-hurt.html
How one practical woman sees it. Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Yes, I saw that eye roll. Yes, it hurt. We were standing on the field watching the other parents refuse to step up and help when the coach wasn't able to make it to the game. It hurt to have to say no, it hurt even more to see your eye roll when I gave the reason why. Many people think osteoarthritis is just a few aches. That eye roll told me you are one of them.

This isn't always easy, cost effective, or convenient but in the end your community benefits more when you make the effort to shop locally. By greenUPGRADER. Everyone knows that it supports local business owners but I love that they find you tend to get better customer service and how local shops build character in a city - AGREE! I will ...

How one practical woman sees it. Monday, December 1, 2014. Kids Kindness Advent Calendar. Several years ago I purchased this wooden Advent Calendar we use to count down the days until Christmas. Each year I fill it with small pieces of candy, cool rocks, or small toys.The kids love opening the doors to find out what little treasure is inside that day and I like that I can customize it to what their interest currently are. At the end of Christmas I'll post a note letting you know how it goes. By the e...

How one practical woman sees it. Friday, December 13, 2013. Make Kindness a Lifestyle. It's that time of year where you see many people going out of their way to spread a little kindness or Christmas cheer. It's a wonderful thing to see and definitely spreads the warm and fuzzies. But after Christmas is done will people go back to their normal lives? Heads down and focusing on their immediate surroundings? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

How one practical woman sees it. Thursday, July 4, 2013. Snap Crackle Pop Part II. On Sunday, June 9th, 2013, some of my family members came and walked with me in the Walk to Fight Arthritis. It was my first time walking in this event but it won't be my last. As mentioned in my earlier post. For the most part I try not to let it get me down but it's hard to do when I see my weight creeping up. Those 5lbs that took me 4 months of hard work to get off have reappeared. When I do something slightly a...And I...
