helping folks during the holidays.

If any of you are in the position, you might consider donating to some of the places, like Safeway has donation things, Head Start schools, local food banks.

Especially this year. Families need it more than ever, beings half the people aren't working.

I was just informed by the boss lady that we bought "several" turkeys to donate to some of the parents at her school.
Ok, how many is several?

The grocer won't tell me, cause the boss lady told him not to.
So that means I probably won't like the answer.

She's happy, I'm happy.

Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    We have donated more than ever and helped out at a food giveaway.
    There are so many people that need assistance, but in all honesty 9 months into this and people are driving up to food giveaways in BMWs, Mercedes Benzes, Land Rovers and other high end leased cars. Laws have been made for people to opt out of leases without penalty. If your out of work get rid of the highend car and get a hooptie car until you go back to work.

    We will still continue to assist when we can especially the toys for kinds

    One of the things about the way the boss lady did it, is she knows these families.
    She feeds their children at school (Head Start). So she knows what they drive, she knows if they are working and she knows how they are doing financially.

    I would, but I have a packed tower and I don't need to win anything.
    As messed up as this year has been, I have a tremendous amount to be thankful for.
    Because of my work, being essential and working a little more than I normally would, my family and I will not lack for much this Christmas and I would feel better if my drawing went to someone else.
    I appreciate what you are doing.

    The Frank Rule says if you win you can pick someone else on the list to receive the winnings.... just saying 😉
