November 9th Progress Report

Our prayers and hearts go out to the families, soldiers and folks around Fort Hood. There is lots I'd like to say about this cowardly act.............but it's better I don't. No matter what, we still have the best darn Military in the World!

So here's the tally:

Total stockings done (not stuffed like the Turkey will be in a few days) = 250. More of Karyn's pals (Susan and Leslie) have a few to be picked up.

We have a source for the mouthwash and baby powder and the powder drink mixes.

We expect 100 notes from Illinois, 50 + or - from Minnesota, ?? from Missouri, 70 from Texas, the rest will be filled in from Michigan folks.

Matt supplied the address so once we have the boxes filled - off to the shipping dock.

Cards made by Karyn's pal Mary

2 machines, bunch of fabric

Partial filled stockings - patiently waiting

We have been so Blessed by folks who want to help and have helped by giving of their time, talents and treasures.

I do have to make a huge confession - tonight was the first night I made any real contribution. I ran the quality control program. Karyn has been so forgiving - after all it's hunting season!
