Hey Farmgirls,
Just talked with Karen again about 4 PM (MST)today . . . she is doing good, her family is doing good. Things are moving along with recovering, however, there are some insurance settlement issues that are causing some frustrations. She asks that INSURANCE ISSUES BE PRAYED ABOUT for them!
Still no clear direction as to rebuilding, etc. but hopefully that will come soon. More than likely it is related to the insurance issues.
She asks that I communicate for her, again and again, how GRATEFUL SHE IS FOR ALL OF YOU AND FOR ALL YOU ARE DOING FOR HER AND HER FAMILY!!!!
THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!
We'll be talking again tomorrow morning . . . she needs info I have at home (I'm at work right now). If any of you have any info/questions you wish to pass along, just post to the forum.
Sherrie, Karen had a variety of vintage items on her etsy shop. She also makes jewelry. I can't recall if there was something else . . . I'll try to remember to ask her. She lost all of those items in the fire so she "shut down" her etsy shop.
THANKS AGAIN!!! CJ

Thank you Cee Jay for keeping us posted about Karen. Please tell Karen that I'm working on her farm friend package. I'll let you know when I'm sending it her way. Thanks once again for being a wonderful farm friend and helping others. Hugs, Laurie

Sherrie . . . and other Farmgirls
Karen said that the jewelry items were the basic things she made to sell on her Etsy. There were antique items and some beanies, but her grannie makes them so that is the source for those.
So, she said if anyone wanted to help her get some things back on her Etsy . . . BEADING SUPPLIES would be the ticket.
ALSO . . . she says she needs some SCRUNCHIES for her hair. Not the elastic ponytail holders but the cloth SCRUNCHIES. Could also use a barrette or two . . . good holding ones, about 2 1/2 - 3 inches long.
That's it for today . . . we'll be in touch again as I'm getting more information for her.
AND, if any of you want me to communicate anything to her, just let me know.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!! CJ

I just sent a package, but will be sending more again next month. thanks for the beading idea and scrunchie. She'll probably be overwhelmed now! CeeJay, thank you for sending her address to me constantly. I've completely lost my head already this year!

Can I get her address?! I was also wondering what ages her kids are and if she has specific homeschool things she is needing? I'd love to help them out with that.

Sherrie, Sounds like you have some goodies she can use. Her favorite colors include, browns, reds, oranges . . . YES, she does have a digital camera. The charger cord was lost in the fire and she is trying to replace that. I don't what kind of camera it is, but she seems to think she would be able to find a replacement cord.
April, I will email you her address. Her boys are 15 and 13. I'm not sure about the homeschool materials.
THANKS AGAIN FARMGIRLS!!!!! CJ

Ceejay, If you will email me Karen's address I am sure I can put together some beading stuff for her.
(Also, from another post, please send your daughter's address and I will get something off to her.)
Thanks, Kathy |

Sherrie, Thanks for all you're doing . . . and I know that there is no hurry for the beading supplies. Karen is still in the middle of the insurance stuff, cleanup, etc. I do hope that she can find some time to just relax and do something creative. I believe that she plans to check at Walmart for the charger cord. The nearest one is 15 miles, but they go there frequently. THANKS AGAIN!! CJ

I dont know if I can type this without crying so if I make mistakes please excuse them. First of all I want you all to know when I joined this forum I never imagined I would have such a great group of sisters!!!!. With all the love and support you all have sent, has been amazing and as CJ has said for me before no way of saying thank you enough!!! I so appreciate every thought , cards, gifts, phone calls and prayers! You all are the best! Prayers are still need as the insurance will pay the morgage off with 3000 to boot and our contents of the house was over 55k and they will pay 14k so not much to rebuild with. My hubby is self employed and the bank does not want to give us a new loan because I dont work either so that does not help. So everything is up in the air, and is very hard not knowing what our next step can even be. I know God is with us and we will pull thru, so just continue to pray for our family. I know many have asked what we need or what is still need, I can tell you I still need a 9th grade Science book and if possible test book that goes with it if anyone has any of the such, we use Abeka but at this point anything would be a help. Thank you again for everything I really appreciate everything!!!! and most of all appreciate all of you! Blessings, Karen
Ps. I hope to get a computer soon so I can be back on the farm with you all!

Oh Karen ((((Hugz))))) It is SO good to hear from you! I'm so sorry things are so tough right now, but with farmgirl frugality and ingenuity, I know that you can do it...I know, I'm a world apart, but if there is anything that I can help with let me know...is there a list of things that you need floating around that I've missed?
Love and light
