Well I have to say....when the hubby's away and your autistic son has no clue what Mother's day is...it kinda sucks. (Plus the school forgot to send his gift home too....made up for it with big appologies!) But with everything else in life....when your given lemons, make lemonaid...or if it's Koolaid....spike the crap out of it and make it Mike's Hard Lemonaid!!! (Only a saying...I don't drink!! )
So I first want to thank everyone who has helped me out with both trades, roaks, and donations for our family and our first charity garage sale! We raised $210.00 in the rain for Autism Speaks!!!!! People bought so much of my stockpile!!! I can't wait to see what I can raise during the next one at my Mom's place!

Also wondering if anyone in the Durham or Barrie area would like to do a bus trip to Rama on June 10 to see CCR!! $10 or more donation to Autism Speaks will get you on the bus....I hope they will still give us something for going up! Leave a message on this brag if you are interested! Myself and Fourfurryfeet will organize it if we get enough people to fill 2 buses!

Awesome brag WTG! When I lived near a GT I used to love checking their clearance and finding amazing deals! I was just in my son's closet today and found a Faded Glory denim jacket that I bought at GT last year the price tag says it was marked down to $3!!! He was only 3 last year and the jacket is size 6X but he is huge now and it fits perfectly just in time for spring I was so happy lol!! Love your brag and all your stuff you got!
