Helloooo!! And happy summer! It's definitely been a busy one for me. This summer is the first time in my life that I've had 2 jobs at the same time. They're both part time, so it's not too crazy, but sometimes schedules are crazy, and then life gets crazy! And not to mention that when I'm not working, I'm volunteering at the library. It's better than sitting on my butt and being bored and lazy all summer though!
It's also helping me earn up for a camera, like a really nice one. Which reminds me, are there any photographers reading this? If so, would you kindly comment or contact me with what camera(s) you love and why you love them, or ones you hate and why? I'm trying to decide what I want to get, and want to hear some reviews!
Speaking of crazy... My best friend comes home from his mission next week! Like in 4 days! The closer it gets, the more excited I am. It doesn't seem like it's been 2 years already, but it has. Time flies when you're having fun at college I suppose haha.
The last thing I want to write about today is a family that is very dear to my heart. I have known this family since I was 3, and the husband was my science teacher in middle school. Within the last 2 years, he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's. His wife and family felt it best to put him in a care facility (about $4,000 a month), and that has put some financial stress on the family. To add to that, the wife had to undergo radiation for a meningioma (tumor) in her right eye. There is a GoFundMe page set up for the family to help them pay all of their medical bills.
I'm not normally one to post donation pages and ask that people donate, especially if they don't know the receiving family personally. But this is an exception because of how close I am to the family, and I know that they can use all they help they can get financially right now. So, if you have a few spare dollars that you could donate, that would mean a lot to not only the family, but to me as well.
I have included the link to the page in this post, and there is also a direct donation widget on my page under my profile.
