Get Your "Look Good" On, While Doing Something for Others

Thanks to Suzanne of Santa Cruz for passing along the information about a wonderful organization called "Beads for Life."

According to their website:

"BeadforLife eradicates extreme poverty by creating bridges of
understanding between impoverished Africans and concerned world citizens.

Ugandan women turn colorful recycled paper into beautiful beads, and people who care open their hearts,homes and communities to buy and sell the beads. The beads thus become income, food, medicine, school fees and hope.

It is a small miracle that enriches us all."

Just in time for your holiday shopping!

(Model: Stephanie of San Francisco)

Time Flies. . .

I don't know about you, but I'm already calendaring dates for 2010. Every legal secretary knows that timing is everything.

That said, a big old "thank you" to Simone Robinson, Los Angeles Legal Assistant Extraordinaire for the 2010 Court Calendar. What a wonderful Veteran's Day Gift :)

If you don't have a 2010 Court Calendar yet, call your favorite court reporter, they usually have these nice, big laminated ones that last the whole year long (and they're free!).

Because - it's later than you think.

Have a great weekend!

"I Tink I Taw A Puddy Cat. . ." - I Did, I Did!

Even though we're only in the first week of November, it's starting to look a lot like holiday time - or holiday shopping time - well, that's great for those people who can still afford to shop.

I was strolling through the Embarcadero Center today and noticed that the building management was already decorating the trees for the holidays.

I swear it seems like only 2 weeks ago that they were growing herbs in those tree pots. Actually, I think it was 2 weeks ago. . .

Oh, well, it's never to early for retailers, right?

Community Service Opportunity In San Francisco

Thanks to Linda S. for forwarding this information

"I have just repeated my new-found holiday tradition, by volunteering to prepare food for The Glide Foundation's Holiday Meals for the Homeless. In the last few years, I have participated with my daughter, and it has become a wonderful part of our holiday celebrations. Especially in these hard economic times, it is good to feel that you are doing something so necessary and so useful to help others less fortunate than yourselves. Please take a moment to consider taking a few hours out of your family celebrations to help create a better holiday for someone else."
