My granddaughter showed up at my house unexpectedly and went to the pharmacy and the grocery store to get me essentials, that I didn’t feel well enough to get for myself. She even did a quick vacuum of my place as the cat hair may be one of the reasons I’m still feeling poorly. Not to mention the fact that I keep smoking in spite of having a cold. I’m my worse enemy! On a sad note, one of my 8 year old granddaughter’s teacher has a year old baby who is hospitalized as the baby has leukemia. When you live in a small town like my granddaughter does, and go to a small school, you get close to your teachers. The teacher had just come back to school from maternity leave when her baby was diagnosed. The school is having a bake sale to raise money for this family, and teachers from other local schools are also providing baking. We think we have problems but our problems are millionaire problems compared to what some people face. Looking for something meaningful to do this Christmas, donate blood and/or register with the bone marrow registry. We can all make a difference in the world. Carole
