DEATH OF A SISTER....

My baby sister, Tina, passed away yesterday morning.
Tina was an ER Trauma Nurse for 25 years.  She loved being a nurse. 
She graduated from collage and it was off to the races for her.  She loved working with people and helping them.  She took care of our parents when they became ill.  Tina has 3 children...Brad, Heather and Zoe.  They were the love of her life.  Tina recently became a grandmother, Jaylen is now 18 months old, and she loved him so much.  Tina will be missed by family and friends very, very much.
Love ya sis......

MONEY......

I saw this cool idea on facebook....I think I'll give it a try.

You start with 1.00 and the next week add 2.00 dollars and the next week add 3.00 dollars.  Just keep doubling every week.
