Pictures of bags? That was the best I could do? Well, those bags were FULL of pop tabs and sample-sized toiletries that friends and family had donated for the Ronald McDonald House. Friday was the two year anniversary of Eli's death and we followed our tradition of purchasing the linking crab toys (200 this year) to donate to the children's hospital. We drove up and made our two stops at RMH of Houston and Children's Memorial Hermann to drop off the items. I guess that's better than sitting at home drowning in our sorry.
Coffee is great. Coffee with a friend is the most special of treats. On Saturday I woke up early and headed over to my friend Fran's for some coffee and girl time. Those are the mornings that I cherish the most. I miss having a best friend so much. I love just hanging out. Just talking, sharing, getting out all the pent up frustrations or sadness that always build up. Most everyone I know here has kids which means no time to do anything but parent. To meet up takes much planning and most of the time, the kids have to tag along. Obviously that's not the idea situation for me, so I'm lonely. Very, very lonely. I keep joking with Jason that we need to move and become urbanites, but lately I'm not sure that I'm really joking at all. Suburbs are for families and we don't fit in. I hate it. Anyway, that's my pity party for the week. Moving on...
Finally, here's how I spent my Saturday night and Sunday. I made 4 sets of each of these to sell at the consignment shop and on Etsy. I now have 4 things in my Etsy shop. :) Now if I can just sell something!

Wow - two years. You did great honoring Eli's special day, and I'm so glad were able to spend time with Fran.
The cards are so cute!
I actually registered an Etsy shop for the book and my mother's CDs, but ask how far I've gotten with it.
I need to get on the stick!
