Welcome

Just a few rambling thoughts and crafts from a mind that is full of both. I am talented in my mind but regularly run full throttle into the wall of procrastination. I have raised procrastination to an art form. A friend once told me I have a BS in BS and a minor in excuse making. If there is anyway to get out of doing my best, I will do my best to get out of it. Welcome to my saburban life. : ).. Lol.

Bingo!

Yay!  Another great, successful Bingo night.
The Bingo group raised over $1,200 for
a 19 month old boy who is a
brittle diabetic.  He has to get insulin
injections several times a day,
and has to prick his fingers to test sugar levels
a lot.  Their insurance keeps denying
an insurance pump for them,
so this will go towards the purchase of one.
 
Yay Bingo group!!
 
Here were a few of my contributions for the raffle items..
 I've had some wallpaper squares for a while,
finally put them to good use.
 This was a gift basket with regular hot chocolate with marshmallows,
some dark hot chocolate, a Ghiradelli Dark Chocolate bar,
a vanilla candle, some Duck Dynasty Peanut Butter cups,
and a couple shot bottle of Smirnoff's
Caramel flavored vodka and two mugs.
: )..
I kinda wanted to win it myself.
Lol.



And then some Fat Chef plaques to boot.
 
All in all, there were some great raffle items,
especially the ones with Missouri Wines,
and a lot of money was raised for a
great cause!  Woot!  Woot!
 
And..  As usual..
I didn't win at Bingo,
although I was a couple numbers away at times..
I won just by walking in the door
and helping to pay it forward.

Bingo for Brody

We've got one more Bingo Night coming up next week.
This one is to help a family with a two year old
with Brittle Diabetes.  He has to take
several insulin shots and they need to get an insulin
pump that their insurance keeps denying.
 
I think I will finally put some of my burlap
and wood to use..
 And some wood, maps and modge podge.
I think it's going to be a great raffle.

Bingo Bango!

Who could resist a cute little face like this?
Apparently 30+ people couldn't..
We had another rousing successful charity Bingo
game for another great cause.
Lexi's mom needed to raise some funds
so that she could take her over to St. Louis
for ABM therapy.
 
We raised enough money for them last night
to pay for five treatments and the costs
associated with the trip.
: )..
We had such a great turnout,
and there were so many great Bingo prizes
and raffle items that were donated.
 
I didn't get a lot of sleep last night,
but it was well worth staying up late!
 
Go KC!
Go Lexi!
: )..

Love for Lexi Bingo..

I've been trying to adjust to my early morning schedule
and trying to find someone who is willing to
switch to a later shift.  I'm a nightowl,
not an early bird.  It's getting
harder to get going
every early,
early,
early morning..
 
I've also been busy trying to get some items together
for another charity bingo game for an online
friend.  I've finally found an idea that
should really make for some great
raffle items.
 
I've got all of the supplies.
I've just got to get busy and put them all together.
 
 
It's another great Pinterest find.  : )..
