Hey- I know all our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of Katrina. Just a thought on donations- see if your employers have a donation match program. I am lucky mine will match my donation for dollar. We need to get the maximum help to these people who need our help so deperately. Peace, Terri

Thank you for bringing this up. I have a friend who lost everything and has family missing. It is very sad to see the mess and sadness Katrina left behind... Peace to all.

Tripper... excellent suggestion! I'm contacting my local Red Cross chapter this afternoon, I suggest those that can, do the same. I used to live in New Orleans.. went thru hurricane Andrew back in the 90's. That's nothing compared to what has recently happened. My heart goes out to the people there and the surrounding Gulf coast area.

Thanks to you mentioning this, I paid more attention to my office's webpage. They are starting collections today and are going to match us dollar for dollar. I'll be taking $ in Tuesday.

| It's wonderful that your family is going to donate food. Just make sure that if they donate it, that the shipment can actually get there. I know that some organizations are accepting food, but they are being discouraged from even coming into certain areas until next week. Just keep that in mind ok?
