Christmas is a'comin' and the goose is getting fat...

jaylake has a neighbor who is raising her two granddaughters on little more than a social security income. There are details about the family at the neighbor link above, but in short, since August or so, Jay's been collecting donations via paypal to help them get along. It's made a huge difference to

Money sent

[janne]

I have been giving serious thought this year to giving money to charity instead of christmas presents for the adults I know (at least for those adults that I know won't hate me for not giving them presents...) So, uhm, Merry Christmas, and your present has been sent to the neighbor :)

*beam* Thank you. Honestly, as far as I'm concerned, this is the best kind of present people could give. *beam*

I was trying to think of something to send to the auction, but I don't think I have anything...

..do you think someone would be interested in a Tuckerization? Details are vague at this point--could be a short work or a novel, could be as a good 'un or a bad 'un, and I have no timeline. The work might not come out for *years*. But I would add their name and, if wanted, a few defining physical characteristics. Let me know if you think this would work, and if you want more details.

I think that might be very cool indeed! Email Jay (jlake (a) jlake.com) to discuss it!

I have some jewelry that I made and I can send it for the auction, if you think that might do. :)

Could we send gift certificates to the grocery store or wal mart to the PO box jlake gave on his site? That way the neighbor could use some of the cash for other things?

Thanks,
Mickey

Absolutely.
