Yes ineedee we are all doing it! If you’re communicating with someone, you’re networking….plain and simple. Just this morning I talked with a friend of mine who has a house for rent in Hood River. I called another friend who now lives in Hood River and is looking for a house…….BINGO!!

Last week I got a call from Huy Nguyen of Metro Toy Drive He asked me if I knew of a child who was hurting in some way whether it be health, wealth, family or whatever that he could share toys with. Huy’s mission with the Toy Drive is not to focus on toys only at Christmas, kids need toys all year round and especially if they’re hurting in any way.

I called Danyel at NW Eyecare Professionals and she gave me Susan and Trinity’s phone number. I then gave it to Huy & he got in touch with Trinity’s mom Susan. Trinity is very sick spending alot of her innocent 10 yrs. in and out of Doernbecher Hospital. Long story short, they were the “representatives” of what the Toy Drive is all about last Sunday at Huy’s Christmas In July Fundraiser. Bringing a smile to a child and hope to a mom. Hope because of a man named Gregory Cox, who is using his contacts at the Mayo Clinic to find grant money to pay for Trinity’s next transplant. He is also checking into monies to help with Susan with living expernses.

See what I’m talking about???? Embrace communication and you can change the world. It’s all about networking and it pays off for everyone!!!

Enjoy your day……………it was made for you!

It wasn’t that the weather was so great, however it was pleasant. It wasn’t the fact I got a nap in today, although that felt nice. It wasn’t even the fact that when I discovered I forgot to buy fresh vegetables for dinner while at the store on Sunday, I improvised.

It was because I got to visit with one of my closest friends, Fern Wilgus and discuss some really cool things coming up for both of us. Talked with my sister Shawn and was elated to hear she joined a painting class to brush up (good one huh? ; ) on a style of painting she wants to learn more about. Fixed a dynamite dinner for husband and he’s doing the dishes. And last but certainly not least, sent a great picture to my nephew Jacob who is in boot camp at Camp Pendleton, he’s becoming a Marine and I couldn’t be more proud. The picture will bring a smile to his face and that’s my goal!!!

Thank you God………….You done good!!!
