Last weekend I shared that I came across The Pink Slipper Project - a project in place to provide women & children in shelters with a pair of hand made slippers. If you really give it some thought, thats pretty awesome. When these women & kids find themselves having to live in a shelter, for whatever heartbreaking reason, it's nice to think they can slip a little something on their feet and know that out there in the world are people who do care - people who cared enough to make something for them by hand, love oozing all over it.
Sarahs Sweethearts has joined in...and you know that means something fabulous is about to happen! She'll work up something magical, I just know.
Even if you don't think making a pair of slippers is up your alley, do yourself a favor and at least go take a peek at their website. They've been posting lots of pics of the rag slippers coming in & its encouraging to see, it'll make you smile - and you know you want to smile!
Now listen to this (how warped am I??) After a week of dreadful blah rainy weather, today is absolutely beeeutiful. There is this event going on over at the waterfront called Bay Days and there will be booths set up for meandering thru, tall ships parked (parked?) at the docks for folks to climb aboard, carnival food (hello corndog, i love you!), music...all around stuff to do. We've also been invited to a beach house for a BBQ with friends. We live across the street from the beach...but these folks are in one of those delicious right on the beach beach houses. And you know what? I kinda want to stay home and clean and crochet. What brand of weird is that?? I totally won't. We are getting out of here in a little bit and enjoy what's out there to enjoy because if we don't, we will regret it when its over.
