Sam; you have apparently turned your PM off? Remember me? I have made my 3rd donation this year, after reading your plea, rant or whatever. Doesn't matter: It's all about the kids!!! Keep Up The Rants!

Just saw this post, will be sending a little bit of money. Wish I could do more, but I will see if next pay period I can send a little bit more. I will also be bringing the usual - aspirin, neosporin, etc. with me in November.

Best of luck to such a great organization.

Mama, Russell and I were just discussing this. I found out you were bringing 6 suitcases down and I told Russell I bet much of it was stuff for Angel Notion. He will be bringing you down to tour the clinic and meet the staff while you give your generous donations.

You have such a good heart and I am so proud to be your daughter.

i am sorry i was unable to respond before this due to circumstances beyond my control
my acct was deactivated for using the word "wussie" in a joke
wow, i have certainly read and been called a lot worse, and the people doing the calling were not joking, either

anywho, i am happy to be back to thank you all and apologize for the long delay

thanks, every bit is appreciated, and the meds really are nice for the needy folks who really can't afford them

Keep up the good fight!
thanks, michele, i know that
personally i would rather not be involved in any public way
soon the angel notion acct will be going and snappy will be out of it where he belongs

You're making an impact even if you can't see/feel immediate results. Keep fighting the good fight and maybe your select charity might some day get ahead of the game.
thanks, russell, i know that's all true
was having a hard day, seems like a long time ago now

i would like to report that thanks to the generosity of those who donated we have been able to complete some of the projects that have been held up
the kitchen faucet and supplies have finally been replaced and we are leak free for the first time in a long time
also the shed improvements are continuing, plus the regular day to day maintenance

thanks, guys, for your continued support
from everyone at angel notion

well, when i got to the clinic today there was a bit of bad news
the pump that sends the water to the roof has burned up
we have a temporary fix to get some water to the tinaco we just installed, but "temporary" is the operative word

if anyone would like to be the hero of the day, we can get a new pump for less than $100
of course, lalo and i will do all the labor at no cost to angel notion
don't be shy, just got to the angel notion website and hit that paypal button

angelnotion.org

thanks in advance

wtf???
Hey Sammy. Donīt let it get to you. Your pleas are being read. I think itīs going to take people a little time to find the new Charity section though, as we forum members are creaqtures of habit. Anyway, Iīm here now and will be bringing down 2 bags of medication for Russell to deliver. Maybe on the way to Bad Boys tonight.
