A So Fun Swap JINGLE FOR THE CURE



Just some ideas..these were made by my friend Sally


OK, I'm so excited, let's do a Pretty In Pink Christmas ornament exchange
just sign up with Mr Linky & make & purchase  ONE ornament. Each of us will send their hand did ornaments to their partner.I have  opened  up a YAHOO Group too for the swap..like Speckled Egg,  SO SO FUN..we'll show our pink trees online when we decorate them. Ornaments should be mailed to your partner by Dec 1st . I  will make a donation to the Komen Foundation for Christmas too for each ornament exchanged.  I challenge you all to make a small donation.it's a GREAT day here.
Please sign up by Nov25 th & I'll post partners on the 28th


I'm going to have tree for JUST pink and as many ornaments as are exchanged,  I will send ONE dollar to the Komen Foundation~ Jingle for the Cure

    Count me in Deena! It's funny, I found a little pink artificial tree, and am collecting pink ornaments for it. It's such a coincidence, and am excited to participate!!
    Blessings to you,
    Laurie

    Deena, it is great to "hear" you sounding so great. Yesterday after getting your news, hubby brought out trees and put them in their spots---I know--too early, but with less energy, it will take me a month to get it done. I will think about the pink ornament swap, but it sounds super fun and I kept a small spot for a tiny tree of pink. Will check back for details. Have a wonderful day today. Prayers, love, and hugs, Pat

    I'll have to try to do this. Sound like fun! It's good to "hear" you are doing better. Sounds like it's been an exhausting week or so. It's amazing how we unknowingly let our families define us, isn't it?! I guess God knew that we'd do that and that's why He said He's Abba, Father. Have you read "The Shack"? I know some theologians are up in arms about it but I thought it was wonderfully insightful. Anyhow...=) Have a beautiful weekend. Blessings... Polly

    I've had a pink decorated tree for years but had to put it away after I lost Jenny. It was too hard to deal with. But I think I can decorate my small tree with pink ornaments and bows like I used to.
    I would love to be part of the ornament exchange, I have just the ornament in mind. In fact if you need extra's I can do that too. Just let me know and I'll start making them now. Make sure you let us know about the details.
    I'm just so thrilled after reading your email yesterday, miracles do happen every day.
    Hugs
    Bernie

    I have never done this - so this swap is all new to me! I will make a pink ornament - but persuading my husband to live with a pink tree (never mind that most of the house is green and pink)is probably not going to happen! I think he and his 5 brothers and 2 sisters must have all been frightened by a Christmas tree when young - they don't like decorations (But I do them big time, regardless!) Andrina X

    Well, The Museum (me) had the Tea...the speaker/exhibit was beautiful. Centuries of clothes, like a time line. One thing BIG missing, your laughter and glee. A lot of women/people are kinda dull after you Deenz. My husband and I have not had a tree in the 17 yrs since we lost our son. Tried one Thanksgiving dinner a few yrs back together once but it felt flat. I'm really really mad at God right now for allowing this to happen to you, and to me, cause I miss the you also before C. Because you always are coming up with another happy plan for beauty I get mad at myself for not being more positive.
    When I met you I said "all my friends have died, I have no family left and I don't want to be serious anymore. I want to have fun." You said "OK, my old boss used to say I could make a train wreck fun." He was right. But you got diagnosed 2 months after we became friends. You bring light into the world that never was there. I've never liked pink ever, but I've learned to look at it in a different way now. I really like your new site graphics, the pink on black with pretty script. I'll do an ornament for you to use. But I can't do a tree. Whoever "Bernie in Comments" is, that hasn't been able to do a tree since their Jenny...tell them that Jenny I'm sure would love them to have a tree again.
    Your friend's ornaments are very feminine and romantic too.
    You Deenz, you are breaking a heart that I was sure was too hard to break ever again.
    God bless you always.
    Nancy/Church

    Dear Miss Deena,

    I really would like to be able to spend so much more time to research your history on your blog. I really would like to know more about your precious story. I started to do a blog on Xanga to journal my journey through my breast cancer. I didn't do very well.

    I was given a journal book as well by a family friend who thought I might like to write my feelings and thoughts with what I was going through. I suppose for most people, it probably works. But it just wasn't for me. I would much rather write about it now, but I couldn't handle it back then.

    I believe you sent me an email on yahoo to add me to your "list of friends". I'm not sure if I responded. I'll have to check.

    You are a true inspiration... you keep putting one foot in front of the other... you have the victory through Jesus every day.

    I'll check my yahoo email.

    Hugs,
    Penny Sue

    HI Deena. Just checking to see when we are to display our pink trees. Are we doing them all the same day on our blogs or just on the yahoo group? Hope you're having a beautiful evening. Blessings... Polly
