The Good, Bad and Ugly...

I'm going to be honest, I had written a really long, whiney post about how I had all sorts of crappy luck and stupid car problems over the weekend.  I (as I often do) was focused way too much on myself.  Yeah, I had some bad luck over the weekend, but my "good, bad & ugly" was nothing compared the devastation and heartbreak those in Newton, CT felt.

Tomorrow, December 18th, will be a day of blogging silence. 

We will post the button and that's it. Please try to not post anything else that day if possible.

We are also raising money that will go to an organization in the memory of this tragedy. The organization is called The Newtown Family Youth and Family Services. Here is the official description of the support service we are donating to: 

"Newtown Youth and Family Services, Inc. is a licensed, non-profit, mental health clinic and youth services bureau dedicated to helping children and families achieve their highest potential. NYFS provides programs, services, activities, counseling, support groups and education throughout the Greater Newtown area.

ANY DONATIONS MADE TO NEWTOWN YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES WILL BE DONATED DIRECTLY TO THOSE EFFECTED BY THE SANDY HOOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SHOOTING."

You can make a donation HERE

We can't imagine how they must be feeling, especially this close to the holidays. We would love for you to spread the word on your own blog, Facebook, Twitter, etc. Let's make a difference and use blogging in a positive way. Thank you in advance for participating.

Linking up with Kate & Kati for a GBU Monday.
