Celebrate, Remember, Fight…what do these words mean to you?

14 May 2010, 8:49 am

I was diagnosed with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma on Dec. 31, 2008.  Currently I am in REMISSION!!  My 1 year birthday will be on May 19th 2010! God is good! I support the American Cancer Society & Lymphoma Awareness. In May, 2009,  I had the opportunity to participate in the Relay for Life for my very first time.   It will not be my last! On May 22, 2010,  I have the priviledge of being part of the Relay in a different way, not only as a Survivor but also as a Volunteer working with the children’s area hosting games & giving away prizes!! We are all aware of the group that supports Breast Cancer and does the 3 day but many are not aware of Relay for Life.  Relay is different because it focuses on ALL types of Cancers not just one type.  We CELEBRATE the Survivors, REMEMBER those we have lost, and FIGHT so that our families will not have to affected by this horrible disease in the future. Please visit my Relay for Life page and make a donation if you are able. Even if you are not able, please leave me a comment to let me know if you or someone you know is or has been affected by Cancer & what kind.  Our team, Heart & Souls, would like to remember or celebrate them on this night.

Thank you & God bless you.

Calling all companies willing to let an angry mom test their products for durability!!

14 May 2010, 8:36 am

Yes, you read that right folks, if you want to know if your product can withstand the hands of a toddler, teenager, klutzy husband or just a plain pissed off mom, then send it to me!  I tell you, I think cell phone companies should have mad moms as testers so we will know which phones to buy for our kids.  If I can hurl my Blackberry at the floor with all my might and it still works 10 minutes later, that is the one for my teen!  If I accidentally drop my Palm or iPhone and the screen shatters, forget that mess.  Who wants to pay the price for repairs.

While we are on the subject, this also goes for testing video game consoles (teen boys and husbands can get rough on those things), laptop computers, other various electronic items such as mp3 players, kitchen accessories and other small appliances.

I need the stress relief please!! My husband has still not found a job and we are going on a year, oldest daughter about to graduate, making me crazy, life overwhelming…if I could afford a shrink or kickboxing lessons, I would do that…but, seriously folks, I think mad “moms product durability testing” is a much better marketing strategy!!

Have a happy day!!
