Norma--I have been involved with Toys for Tots for several years, firast as a Marine wife, and now as a Realtor.  I head up the Toys for Tots drive in our office.  Last year we collected close to 1000 toys.  I hope to double that this year.  Good on you for supporting this worthwhile project! Your heart will feel good!!

You're right, now is a good time to work on the whole you.  The holidays are agreat time to get back to the basics of life.

Norma,

This is a great blog - I think people need to do this all year long not just around the holidays or when the market is slow.  So lets promote it today but also in June

It is amazing how a simple reminder is what some need Thanks!

Norma - This year our office, Keller Williams Metropolitan, is delivering HEB grocery bags to neighbors, family, friends and clients and asking them to fill them with canned goods for the Houston Food Bank.  We'll pick them up from the homes and deliver them to a specific HEB . . .who'll then get them to the Houston Food Bank.  We've ordered thousands and thousands of bags to deliver.  Yeah . . .it always feels good!!!!

Thanks for pointing this out because we all really do need to take this time of the year to sit back and reflect on just how good we really do have it!  It really does make you feel good when you give back, especially if you do it as an office!  Last year we went to a homeless shelter and brought our own food and fed it to the people staying there that night!  What an eye opening experience...

Good work, Meg!

Michael, yes it's easy to get so involved in our own lives that we forget to help those in need in our community.
