Frequent Philanthropy Friday

I have decided to change my Friday theme. It will now be known as Frequent Philanthropy Fridays. I mean, who are we kidding here. I am a lazy person and writing is no exception. I cannot be expected to write every single Friday. Why do you think I gave myself until 40 to write a book? I set that deadline when I was 15! No really. I know I have two kids and my husband works weird hours and I feel like a single mom half the time, but none of that is an excuse for the dishes that don't get done, the washed clothes that don't get put away, and the dinners that do not get made. Unless you count cereal. I do slice the bananas! Anyway, the really real truth is that I am a sloth. Seriously. Ask my husband. I do pick up my clothes and make the bed and things like that. I'm not a slob. I am just a little more laid back than some. Most. Whatever. At least I admit it and admitting it is the first step to fixing it, right?
So I plan on occasionally, excuse me, frequently, telling you about a charity or organization that I give to, love, etc on Fridays. Frequent Philanthropy Fridays. But not this one. Happy Friday!

(FYI: Seeing as how I am almost 38, my new deadline for writing a book is 50. I just found out that my magnificent and extremely original idea for a book was recently done by someone else. Obviously, someone less lazy than me. Makes sense. And the reviews were exactly what I had expected, "this is such a new take on this", "he really made me understand what he has gone through", "so different from all the other books I have read on this subject, and that's a lot of books", blah, blah, blah!)
