I just got back from 10 days in Queensland and have been wondering if you were affected by the floods at all?

 

[nockosh]

no I'm no where near the floods, thank goodness. It's so heartbreaking. Thanks for checking up on me

oh my goodness! i haven't turned on the news in almost 2 weeks. i had no idea this was happening! (where have i been??)
how absolutely heartbreaking! glad to hear you are safe kaye. will definitely be praying for a quick disaster relief and effective follow-through for these poor people who have been affected.

Glad you are safe Kaye!
not sure if this is the thread to jump into with this, but there are some great flood relief efforts underway! There is an auction (I have it linked on my facebook wall) with all sorts of fantastic items & art supplies from fabulous artisans - Emily Falconbrige is just one of several!

Glad you are not near the flooding Kaye! I don't know if you guys know this, but one of the designers at SSD, Zoe Pearn lost her home to the flooding It is really heartbreaking.

It's so horrifically sad. Thank you for the link Andrea. After hearing of Zoe's situation I have been wondering how those of us out of country can help those who are suffering with the flooding.

 

[amandajane]

Glad you are OK Kaye!
Jenn thanks for the info on Zoe, it is just so tragic!

Andrea, I was going to post that link too, I plan on having a good look through that list later today.

 

[nockosh]

oh I didn't know about Zoe, I knew she was an Aussie but didn't know which part she was from. So so sad.
