I am so glad that the weekend is finally here.....
I worked a little late last night (~6:00, which actually is late for me, especially on a Friday!) then went by my new friend Jan's house to get some info from her. We are members of a board for a non-profit called New Friends New Life -- it is a ministry that was formed out of my church a few years ago to aid women who want to leave sexually oriented businesses and turn their lives around. It is a great ministry and very rewarding to work with as you can actually see results in the life of real people.
Our big fundraiser each year is a Home Tour that is held the first Sunday of December. We have three homes in a pretty swanky part of town that we sell tickets for people to tour. At one of the homes, we host a Holiday Shoppe with great little gifts and wonderful Incredible Edibles available for purchase. Anyway, Jan is the Home Tour chair this year and she is super organized and has everything running so very smoothly. But, I am helping her keep track of money stuff since that is one of my gifts and not one of hers! (Shameless plug and plea for money - even if you don't live in the Dallas area, but are interested in supporting this organization, tickets are only $15 and I'd be happy to sell you one!)
So, then I came home to chill out on a Friday night -- watched a little TV then off to bed. I just love Saturday mornings where I can sleep in! So far today, I've done some cleaning, some laundry, some organizing. Now I'm off to make a couple of cards (birthday for my sister and a wedding card for my friend Erin).
Happy Saturday to all!

That does sound like a great ministry. I can see how it would be very rewarding. God bless.
