No worries on the name. How did you send (UPS, USPS, etc) and to which address? I want to give her a heads up on what to expect.

Considering it is 1,161 miles (one way), um... no.

And I am not into fisting

OK, it took me some time to figure that one out....

Yeah, I'm an idiot

USPS to the second address you gave me (the post 6/7 one). It's a large Target Corporation box, about 16"x16"x24" with a big Mickey Mouse address label on the top.

Jen was going to be the handmaiden, but I think she forgot - the bags are still in our condo. We can deliver them to someone after the you-camping/we-anniversary weekend.

Thanks H! We'll get it figured it out. Maybe dinner

Can y'all help refresh my memory?

I just spoke with my friend. She has received my package (with the gift cards) and DP and FP's package with the Disney stuff (which the girls have gone absolutely bonkers over).

Has anyone else sent anything? If so, when did you send it and where to (which address)? She has not gone to the PO box for a while, so if you sent it there, she just hasn't got to it yet.

I just got off the phone with my friend and they are starting to get settled in. They moved into their semi-permanent home (while theirs gets rebuilt) over the weekend. Some things are still on order (for example, they have mattresses, but the bed frames, etc. are on order). Also, they are starting to face the shortage of all the little things (such as coasters - the last thing they want to do is ruin brand-new furniture). However, she (my friend) has not slept more than 3-1/2 hours since the fire. She has been taking prescription sleeping pills, but they are not helping. If it continues, her husband will be taking her to the doctor.

And as an update, we were able to send $225 worth of gift certificates to them ($125 for Target and $100 for JC Penney).

Lastly, I want to thank everyone who has stepped up with assistance: some with money and some with physical goods. I cannot recall who wanted to remain anonymous and who was public, so I am going to play it safe and send individual thank-yous via PM. If you not received a PM from me today, that means I have not received anything from you.

If you would still like to help out, it is still not too late! Just let me know.

Yeah! Non-profits rock! How wonderful that your friend has taken a personal tragedy and turned it into a way to make the world a better place. Thanks for the update.
