I am sooo guilty of this, I like to gripe about all manner of things but rarely do much more than that. But, the recent turn in the economy has so me so tired of hearing everyone whine. We will get through this no I don't know how or when but we will get through it. Hopefully, we will learn from it so our kids don't have to go through something similar. Please don't think that I don't know that things are bad, I do get it! I also get that it sucks and A LOT of people are suffering, but you know what A LOT of people have been suffering for a lot longer. Go to Mississippi, Louisiana, or even D.C. and take a look at the vets who served our country so long ago ,and gave so much and have needed us for a long time and no one helps. We just shake our heads and say how sad it is. Again, I am so guilty of this. Every week I watch with tears in my eyes some family on Extreme Home Makeover and think I should do something to help someone.
I am not independently wealthy as the checker at Price Chopper suggested because I could afford to pay for my daughters formula without the help of W.I.C. But, I definitely have enough to help other people. I have time, and I am a resourceful gal. So, I am pledging now I will do something just one thing every week to help someone in need. I hope I can inspire others to do the same. I will keep everyone updated on how it it going!

Jen this is a great idea! You are an inspiration. After all you have been through, you would be justified to complain a bit. This is impressive! - Catherine
