And hey! Would anybody in the local area be interested in getting together with me for some coffee and maybe dropping in on a homeless shelter or nursing home or something, and finding if we can get a list of residents to maybe make a few handmade Christmas cards or cookies or something for? Ki's going to do it either way, but it might be fun to have somebody to come along.

This also sounds awesome, Ki put her name in for two of the spots on there, hopefully one of them gets back to me. Looked into the Boise Lighthouse, and the Malamute Shelter.

I would be up for helping out with something involving the homeless..as some know, but still yet many dont, when I lived in PA/NY for about 4 months, I lived in different homeless shelters and I know what its like to be in that system, and how good it feels to know someone cares..plus for all they DID help me out with, I like to give back. I used to never give the Salvation Army bellringers money...but after I lived at one of their shelters for a month, every year I make sure to give them what change I can spare!

Yes, did the same thing in California. Well, never stayed in a shelter, was too nervous to go to one, since was a minor, but spent a lot of time under the overpasses and things, and would talk to a lot of the older homeless people. We should get together and make some cards or something sometime during the week, let me know when you're free.

Yeah..if you want I can call different places and see if we can get names of the residents *oversnights are hard to get names for* especially for like the battered womens shelters..we could try something for the kids. When it comes to things like this...alot of them wont release too much information...but they will release like first initials and their age or just their first name and age. Would love to do something like the cooking baking as well...but as with all things..I would probably call them and ask them first and find out their policy on things like that. We could get together sometime and go downtown and chat over some coffee/tea and a pastrie and make some nice crafts..plus we could catch up and you could tell me all about your trip to the UK! *you know I am thinking of one day living there fulltime*....

So just let me know!
BTW...home phone number is : 208-323-9342

Give me a buzz today or sometime this week!
