Disney

Ryan and I are planning on getting a Disney Annual Pass - YAY!!! We have gift certificates that we can use for the day pass (thanks for the Christmas gifts!!) and then Disney is now offering monthly payment plans to pay off the rest. We can pay it off in monthly installments and then on our birthday since we will have annual passes if we go on our birthday they will give us $70 in Disney bucks that we will be able to use to pay off the balance. So in total I think we may be paying about $20 for annual Disney passes!! YAY!!! I did some research online about the monthly pay plan and I found this great blog that a woman spoke about it, check it out here. We are planning on going up on Sunday with some friends!! I'm sure we will post pictures later!! YAY!!! YOU SAY MICKEY I SAY MOUSE!!

Annual Pass Monthly Pay Plan

Hand Model

Last Friday I was a hand model for our company. Sounds weird, but we are adding some websites and they had an idea of using the employees in the pictures. I will post the link to the website when the sites are done, but I thought I would post the few pictures that my hands made it in. :) Do you think I have a future in this?! HA!

GO WINGS GO!!

Walking For a Cause

Dear Friends & Family:

A life is lost to suicide every 16 minutes in the United States. Suicide is the third leading cause of death among fifteen to twenty-four year olds and the second leading cause of death among college students. However, most Americans remain unaware that suicide is a national health problem. The impact suicide has on the lives of family members, friends, co-workers and the community is devastating. The loss of human potential is enormous.

On October 17th, 2009, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) will host its fourth, annual 5K Out of the Darkness Community Walk in San Diego, CA. We hope you will consider walking with us as we travel the beautiful paths at De Anza Cove in North Mission Bay to raise awareness and funds for suicide prevention.

A major goal of this event is to show support for the families and friends of the 32,000 Americans who die by suicide, and the 20 million people who suffer from depression, each year. Support of the community walks also helps to raise funds for suicide prevention research and educational programs, erase the stigma surrounding suicide and its causes, and encourage those who are suffering from mental illness to see treatment.

On-line registration is now available at www.outofthedarkness.org. You may register individually or as part of a team. Please consider inviting your family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers to walk with you or to support your walk. If you are not able to join us, perhaps you would consider sponsoring a walker or making a donation to the San Diego walk. Check out my personal walker page here: http://afsp.donordrive.com/participant/mcdot.

Thank you ahead of time for your support in bringing suicide Out of the Darkness.


Sincerely,
Carlee

Dear friends,

After a lot of years of devastating setbacks in the fight for marriage equality, it seems like we're finally moving in the right direction. With marriage legal in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont and Maine, and the fights going strong in New Hampshire, New York and California, this movement is gaining more momentum every day, and I'm excited to be a part of it.

To that end, I wanted to let you know that CREDO Action is giving away some awesome stickers about supporting gay marriage - I think you'd really like them. I just got mine - if you have a minute, click this link to check out the stickers and get one of your own (for free!).

Sneak Peak

Check out part of my new blog... This is what I have been working on lately... I don't want to put the Scrabble jewelry on my Etsy shop yet (since there are costs on posting every piece to my store, so I think I will put them up when people are interested in them). These are not the finished pieces... I have since put the bails on the Scrabble pieces. I hope to get new pictures taken and updated on the site. Let me know what you think - I hope you like them!!
