Such a fun spirit in this family it's to bad were so far apart. I did a live shot at a retirement home the other night so they could officially light the side of there building were this big tree was. All the elderly people were looking at us like theyed gone back in time as if they hadn't seen us younger folks in years. I felt bad that must of them wouldn't have much of anyone let alone anything, so I am so very happy to have such a wonderful family.

I think jess' idea about drawing names is a great idea. I'll put that together this week and see who gets who. If you guys can give us an idea on the $$ limit then we can try and get everybody to the store soon. Online is just as easy.

Jess Im up for sending Mike a care package. Let me know what I can do to help.

I know christmas can be a really hard time when we all think about all the money we don't have. One thing that is nice about this job is I spend a lot of time outside with the public. We have done a lot of dinners for homeless people and covered stories of kids with tumors getting new homes to live in. In every situation the giver is just as fullfilled as the reciever and in every case the reciever is able to give back with gratitude and love. That's all I really want for christmas is to be more greatfull for the things I already have. ...Oh and maybe to find someone to marry.
