30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 2

I am most thankful and grateful for my PARENTS.

My parents have helped me alot with my son, I could NEVER repay them.  When I had to go on travel for my job, they took care of my son for the week.  That's just one example.  There are so many more examples.  They are truly a blessing.

What are you thankful for today?

30 Days of Thankfulness -Day 1

Awhile ago, a friend of mine told me her "gratitude" journal opened her eyes to see how blessed she was.  I know, I am blessed, however, I sometimes (when it gets hard) do think some folks grass is greener, if you know what I mean.  I decided to do the "30 Day of Thankfulness" to help get back on track, as I know my "grass" is green.

I am so thankful for SUMMER DAY CAMP!

My son attends private school and his last day of school was in May.  In fact, he graduated this year from 5th grade, so his last day was even earlier than the other students.  The county public schools last day of class was June 17.  I had three(3) weeks of pulling my hair out trying to figure out what to do with him while I went to work.  Not only am I thankful for Summer Day Camps, but I am so thankful and blessed to be able to afford to send him to camp.

What are you thankful for today?

Be a blessing to someone ...with a small donation, you can help send a kid to camp.

Helping A Neighbor With Cancer Stop Foreclosure

My neighbor has been battling cancer, which seems to have been most of her life.  In high schoo,l she had ovarian cancer.  Physically having children of her own would no longer be possible for her.  As she grew older, she came to terms with not having a child in her life.  However, in her late 20's she was blessed by receiving temporary guardianship in raising her 2 week old cousin.

When the little girl turned two or three, yet again cancer knocked on my neighbors door, breast cancer.  She was devasted, but knew she had a young child depending on her and she fought and won.  In her late 40's, she is in her 50's now, cancer once again has come to visited her, the "little" girl no longer in her household is of age and "writing" her life chapters. I've noticed the fight seems to have dimmed.  I remind her that Cancer has knocked on her door several times and that she's kicked it out each time and that she must do the same this time.  She confided in me that she was behind in her mortgage and that it worried her that one day she would come home from the hospital to find that she no longer has a home  She's been in the hospital numerous of times to the point where she has exhausted all of her leave, exhausted leave that was donated to her and is strictly getting paid for the days that she actually works.  There are good and bad days, however as of late the bad are outweighing the good.

After contacting Chase Mortgage, her mortgage broker she filled paper work in hopes to have the mortgage adjusted.  She was informed not to pay her mortgage and wait to hear from them regarding approval.  Doesn't that sound shady.  I couldn't believe it when she told me, but I have researched online and found that this has happened to others...only to receive a letter stating the mortgage adjustment has been DENIED!

She just returned home today from a stint in the hospital and I have discussed with her that she needs to talk to a mortgage counselor.  I researched on Hud.gov and provided her a listing in our area.  Meanwhile, I have created a Chip In  account in hopes to help her raise the funds in which she owes... just in case.  If you, feel it in your heart to help her out any amount (i.e., $1 etc.) it would greatly be appreciated.

I will keep you posted.
THANKS!
