Mothers Day was an extremely windy day. I was outside for about 13 hours vending at the Lilac Festival. After the last 40 mile per hour gust of wind rattled my booth I decided packing up a tad early would be forgivable. As I started to box my earrings, Lucas, Jason, Sara and Elizabeth surprised me at my booth. I was so happy to see them except I was very run down and flustered. It wasn’t until Lucas and Jason left that I acknowledged the card and present they left. Their sweet card was a terrific end to a very difficult day of vending. I even got an awesome book that I have had on my wish list, Parenting: Illustrated with Crappy Pictures
Come out and see me next weekend at the lilac festival:

Meet Mouse, my new (pre-owned) car!
Today I sealed the deal for the Honda Fit Sport 2009. I’ll be eating rice and beans for the rest of my life.
My friend Erin, owner of Sunshyne Silverwear, recommended the Fit as a very practical way to travel from show to show. It’s just enough room. Thanks Erin, you were dead on with this car!
Soon I’ll be wearing the same socks as Erin, looks like I’m following in her footsteps.

Park History
Established in 1887, Highland Park was the dream of George Ellwanger and Patrick Barry, two leading Rochester citizens and prominent nurserymen. Owners of the world-famous Mt. Hope Nursery, they endowed the community with 20 acres of their nursery’s land and enlisted the help of noted landscape engineer Frederick Law Olmsted to develop the park.
The relationship with Mr. Olmsted lasted into the twentieth century and today Highland Park has grown to comprise 150 acres of rolling hills filled with botanical delights, magnificent gardens and the largest collection of Lilacs in the United States.

A note from my uncle:
Dear Friend,
Please support me in the Tour de Cure! 2013 marks my 9th Tour. What started for me as a fitness goal with a charitable benefit has turned into an annual ritual for me as I raise funds for this important cause. We all know folks impacted by the effects of diabetes. Please support me with a donation by selecting the “Donate to Me” button or by selecting the link below to my fundraising website.
By making a donation on my behalf, you will be helping the American Diabetes Association change the future of diabetes by providing community-based education programs, protect the rights of people with diabetes and fund critical research for a cure.
Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin, a hormone needed to convert food into energy. There are over 26 million Americans living with diabetes. If current trends continue, one out of three children will face a future with diabetes. This is a startling statistic and your donation will help to change this.
I know my participation in this year’s Tour de Cure can and will make a difference. Please help me reach my goal of $1000 by supporting me with a donation.
You can follow the link below to my personal webpage to make a secure, 100% tax-deductible, online donation.
Together we can Stop Diabetes!

THANK YOU for your past and present support. It is GREATLY appreciated!!
