I ordered a bunch of gifts off of Amazon from my hospital's wish-list of young adult cancer patients who are stuck in the hospital for the holidays.

Also will be dropping off a large bag of goods to the Bowery Mission next week.

I put together a handbag drive via Facebook in response to a request from one of our shelter/women's program directors. I am amazed at the support received from women in the Wantagh Mommas group. Probably over 100 handbags donated (and still counting as more arrived at more door last night) many filled with everyday essentials and warm winter gloves, scarfs socks. The director was so overwhelmed as was I at the generosity and thoughtfulness a simple Facebook post gathered.

My DH has his own business. So a new girl started there 2 weeks Ago. she's 22, a former marine, down on her luck. He asked her how she gets to work each day? She borrows rides from people, she also has a young child to, whose maybe 2. . Anyway, he heard her talking about a used car for sale from the mechanic around the block. It's only 2500, and she had only 750. DH went and bought the car for her, and will take a nominal amount of of her check to repay him over time. Awww
