_____________________________________________________________
 
  • On July 25th, 2010 we hosted a Brat Fry at our local Piggly Wiggly.  It was an easy way of raising funds for our cause and everyone loves a good barbeque!  Hope to see you next year


  • Riah's Rainbow hosted the 1st Annual Scouting for Smiles Donation Drive with the Girl Scouts of the Northwestern Great Lakes.  This service project had an overwhelming response in the number of Girl Scouts that participated.  These wonderful girls collected 1,487 items from their neighborhoods!  Way to go!  The combined effort of every Girl Scout that participated made this project a success!  We thank you!


  • Cardinal Health of McGAW Park, IL held a donation drive from August 16th-August 27th, 2010 and collected over 1200 items for Riah's Rainbow!  This was a wonderful surprise! 


  • The 50/50 Raffle at Scenic View Drive-In Theatre in Freedom, WI on August 27th, 2010 was by far the easiest fundraiser and the most fun we've had working!  In an hour and a half we raised $252.00!  So one lucky winner got to watch 2 amazing movies and go home with money in their pocket!  We will definitely be doing this again next year....stay tuned starting in May 2011 for dates.


  • Our Arizona Chapter of Riah's Rainbow had an amazing event on September 11th, 2010 called Got Ink? Fundraiser.  With a bucket raffle, entertainment from sword fighting pirates and bellydancers, henna and kids tattoos, plus REAL tattoo being done, I'm sure this fundraiser was a treat for all that attended.  The event raised over $850 for our AZ Chapter!  Way to go Susi!

Riah's Rainbow *In Memory of Mariah Jean Klein*




Your kindest assistance? Please?

Most of you remember Baby Mariah...

Mariah Jean Klein
Click for her Caring Bridge Site

Miss Micki (Mariah's Mama) has formed Riah's Rainbow. (For my own entry Click here).

From their site, Micki describes Riah's Rainbow:

"Our mission is to be able to give local hospitals new coloring books, crayons, markers, colored pencils, craft items, etc. to pediatric patients.

Each time they visit they will receive a new coloring book & box of crayons to take home with them.

We also offer alternatives such as puzzles, project bags, or paints.

Often times, cancer patients are offered "community" craft items. With comprised immune systems, the threat is always there that the child may develop an illness. Riah's Rainbow eliminates that fear for parents.

It is our hope that in the future we will be able to provide parents with the resources to take their children out for a day adventure...maybe to the zoo, or dinner and a movie, for the whole family."

Riah's Rainbow
is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, established to enrich the lives of children who have to endure any length of stay in the hospital.  There are no salaried employees of Riah's Rainbow, the foundation operates solely through the generous efforts of volunteers.

Riah's Rainbow will be a featured story in Woman's World magazine in the October 11th, 2010 issue in stands on October 4th, 2010!  (Facebook entry says October 11th, 2011?).
Heck- Buy them both!!

I have a question for anyone that knows...

With Riah's Rainbow's tax exempt status, doesn't this mean that all of your donations are tax deductible? (If that's the case, then kwitcherbitchin' and donate)!

Girl's death inspiration for organization to bring joy to sick children.


By Ilissa Gilmore
gilmore@greenbaypressgazette.com
June 17, 2010




SUAMICO —

Micki and Michael Klein's daughter died from an inoperable brain tumor two years ago, but Mariah lives on through an organization that offers activities to hospitalized children.

In the kitchen of the Klein home, pages of their daughter's medical information line the walls, and her bedroom has been lovingly preserved. A Disney calendar on the wall shows August 2008.

"That's when time changed," Micki said.

Mariah's parents started Riah's Rainbow, a nonprofit organization that provides children in the hospital with materials such as crayons, markers and puzzles.

Mariah was diagnosed in 2007 with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma, a pediatric brain tumor that affects 150 to 200 children each year. In and out of hospitals, Mariah would distract herself with coloring and drawing. Every item provided by Riah's Rainbow has a sticker with Mariah's face, her story and the organization's information.

"We want children and others to know about her and who she is," Micki said.

The Kleins have sent 100 to 200 materials each month since January 2009 to hospitals in Green Bay, Chicago, New York, Minnesota and Michigan.

Each hospital that receives materials either provided care to Mariah or her family knows a child who spent time there, Micki said.

Mariah's family eventually wants to get supplies to hospitals across the country.

The organization also receives money from grants and donations through fundraisers. Their Smiles for Miles fundraiser raised more than $4,000 — half of which will help buy gifts for hospitals and the rest will go toward supporting clinical trials by The Cure Starts Now Foundation, a nonprofit researching cures for the disease that killed Mariah.

Micki said the organization is growing and "gets better every year and reaches more kids."

"We need to get over our grief and it's a good way to do it — to see other kids happy," she said.

Catfish ~n~ Cookbooks!


Good Morning!
I hope you all had a splendid weekend!

I was going to sit and catch up a bit here. Not going to happen as my back just will not be comfy any which way. (Might have overdid it on the outside work). But that is almost all done for 2009. (Say "YAY")!

.
Recipe?  Food?!?!  Mmmmmmmmmmmm
Being partial to Parmesan cheese, I chose Oka's recipe suggestion for my catfish.
It was SO very good! (And I am quite happy to have a few pieces leftover too)!

Good Evening;
I caught myself- for the 100th time, looking out the kitchen window- specifically to look toward the kennel.
Wonder how long it takes to settle in that she won't be there no matter how many times I look? (And she has been INside all winter too).
Of course there are still times that I think to call Mom, just for that split~second... (And she's been gone 10+ years).

Punk is getting along well enough
Every now and then to just stare into the distance, to cry a bit...
But we have been playing outside lots too.


Nothing like sunshine (and many spent calories) to help!

Just 2 days ago my yard was an ice rink!

I do think there is more mud in my yard than ice. (For now anyway).

I also realize that Groundhog Day only marks the halfway point of winter; so there is plenty left.

I have the news on in the background... I hope everyone is safe from the tornadoes in Oklahoma, and that you remain out of harms way.


On to a bit of the paranormal...
"At the heart of science is an essential tension between two seemingly contradictory attitudes - an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new."
- Carl Sagan
.
As many of you know, I probably don't live alone.
But what you don't know is that I finally got a new camera.
It has night vision on it. Infrared. And I have been having fun just taking random shots every now and then.
On the first night, I probably took about 20 shots just sitting on the couch after waking up about 2Am.
As I uploaded them the next day, I realized something was quite weird-
About ½-way through the pictures I'd taken on that night... (I hadn't moved either the camera or myself).
.
.


Cnv1246
Please forgive my mess! hehehe
.
.
.
And then this one...
Taken right after that first one,
& in the midst of all my snapping that shutter.
.
.

Cnv1247
What IS that???
Maybe the cat sneezed?

Know that the following shot was the same as the top picture here.
.
.

Sunday night I had gone upstairs to see if I could get a decent picture of the moon.
It was too high in the sky to do so.
I had been upstairs all of about 2 minutes.
Snapped a few pictures of my bedroom too. Nothing there. (Story of my life)...

But Sputnik decided to come up the steps and join me, so I snapped a shot of him.

.
.



?
Cnv1309
Not too sure why his eyes make him look like a Nazi?

But do you see the two people standing in the bathroom door?
Back up a bit from your screen if you do not see what I see.
Weird.
But I am glad they are quiet. hehehe

Methinks I really LOVE this camera!
.
.
Casey and I have been having fun too!
I bought her a little sewing machine for her birthday!
.
.

Cnv1311
She is thrilled that in about 2 short seconds
she can sew the buttons back onto Greg's shirts! hehehe

.
.
My dad used to comment on how strange Mom was!
He found it odd that she would go to the store, buy some pretty material; only to cut it apart, and then sew it back together.
Too cute!

Not me though. I just find little treasures in the shed, or at Goodwill or St Vinnies.
(THEN I cut them apart and sew them back together). hehehe


Tired of having Master Gabriel look like a ragamuffin every time I see him, I finally broke down and bought him a zillion clothes, then dropped them off.

.
.


Cnv1291
Here he is, waving at Casey and I as we left!
.
.
No one hears from Berta much. Last we heard anything, her new (now ex) boyfriend was fixing to throw her out. He'd called Casey and asked if she would take her in.
Casey said no. And hasn't heard anything since.

As for me... I worry; then I remember to "Let go and Let God."


I'd better close for tonight.
Hope all is well in your little corner of the world.

XOXO
Anne

Written by Baby Mariahs mother, Micki

"
I’m asking something of each of you…

I’m doing a project this year to benefit the patients at St Vincent’s Pediatric Floor.
When Mariah was ever in the hospital we would always bring her own crayons, coloring books and puzzles because she enjoyed doing those things.
I want to collect enough new coloring books, crayons and puzzles to be able to give each new patient something to be able to do in the hospital and to take home with them in memory of Mariah.

I’m naming this project Riah’s Rainbow.
I want to continue this throughout the year, not just for Christmas. I want it to be an ongoing contribution to the hospital.

(Won't) you help out?

I think this project will really reflect all that Mariah was about. She loved to color and to draw.

This project will definitely keep her memory alive in all of our hearts."

This is the Riah's Rainbow logo we chose...
we will be putting a sticker on each item we donate.

Daddy please don't look so sad,
Momma please don't cry,
Cause I am in the arms of Jesus and
He sings me lullabies.

Please try not to question God,
Don't think he is unkind.
Don't think He sent me to you,
and then He changed his mind.

You see, I am a special child,
and I am needed up above,
I'm the special gift you gave Him,
The product of your love.

I'll always be there with you,
and watch the sky at night.
Find the brightest star that's gleaming,
That's my halo's brilliant light.

You'll see me in the morning frost,
That mists your windowpane.
That's me, in the summer showers,
I'll be dancing in the rain.

When you feel a gentle breeze,
From a gentle wind that blows,
That's me, in the summer showers,
I'll be dancing in the rain.

When you see a child playing,
and your heart feels a little tug,
that's me, I'll be there,
Planting a kiss on your nose.

So, daddy, please don't look so sad,
Mommy don't you cry.
I'm in the arms of Jesus,
and He sings me lullabies.

Good Evening!
I am not sure if I am ahead of the game with this entry- or severely behind (most probably), but am going to post my ten thoughts today.
After all, SOMEWHERE it is already Tuesday...


1.

A bit of a complaint with the weatherman today, but otherwise no huge news.
He says we were only to get to 32° today, tomorrow too.
(But hey, the sun was shining so at least it looked nice out there).
To get down to about 17
° tonight.

A good time for something spicy,
(and just a little hot)!
.
.
Chili by you.

Chili?
Smells good enough to eat!


(OK, so I cheated and used an old photo.
But "Mmm" anyway)!
.
.

2.

I slept nearly until 11 this morning. (Forget the fact that I didn't actually fall asleep until after 4AM).
.
.
04-29-06 Asleep in Mamas House by you.

Punk, quite young, in Mama Milly's house
Yeah, my sleeping was kind of like that!

And I wonder if I'll sleep tonight?

.
.
3.

Dogs?
.
.
Mr. Miller did not come over today...
.
.
Cnv0911 by you.
He is very sad about that...
.
.
Miss Milly is in the entrance.
.
.
Cnv0855 by you.

Yeah. Not so sad!


And I didn't even have to fight with her (overmuch).
She piddled, and came straight in!
It is just So breezy out there, and I worry too much.

.
.
4.

Oh I said "Breezie"
.
.
Cnv0907 by you.
May on the left- Breeze on the right.
.
.
The teaser last week, about what had happened to her. (I am almost positive you may remember this photo.)?
.
.
Cnv0883 by you.
.
.
Seems Kelli's horse "Breezie" was a bit under the weather.

.
.
And after seeing her sick, Kelli decided to call the vet...
.
.
Cnv0866 by you.
.
.
After checking Breeze over, front to back and top to bottom,
the vet mentioned some "high colonic"

OK, so that is not what she called it;
it's only
my own loose interpretation.
hehehe
.
.
The teaser photo above (with the nasal gastric tube)
was to be able to put warm water,
down the poor horses throat.

.
.
Let's not forget that GALLON of Mineral Oil
That Casey and Kelli prepared.

.
.
Cnv0888 by you.

.
.
MineralOil

OOF!
..
(I don't think I would have drank it willingly either).


.Time to pump...
.
Cnv0890 by you.

While Miss May (and everybody else) looks on...
.
.
Cnv0893 by you.
Miss Breezie was NOT impressed though...
.
.
But all was well once again...
.
.
Cnv0900 by you.
Incidentally, I took this picture a mere millisecond
before Breeze bit Miss May HARD
...and sent her scampering.

.
.
Casey and Kelli...
(Both of them sicker than Breeze too)-
.

A "job" well done Girls!

Speaking of a job well done,
we now have our (Flintville Version) of The Bridge to Nowhere.
.
.
This was a lot of hard work for a Saturday too.

And we had just the right amount of help.

I am sure you all remember Baby Mariah?
.
Her mama Micki posted an update on her CaringBridge website a few days ago. In that posting, she shared that she had seen a medium to contact Mariah. Mariah came through loud and clear.
She has taken a bit of chastisement for it.
Please CLICK HERE to visit Baby Mariah's site, (keeping in mind that if you haven't anything good to say, then please don't write anything).


7.

If you are new here there are a few things you might need to know about me regarding the paranormal.
Please CLICK HERE to read of my own beliefs and experiences. (Yes, there are a few pictures).


8.

Also if you are new, and do not know me very well; please take a moment or two to CLICK HERE to try to understand where I come from, and what is in my heart and soul. (I have transferred all comments from my original posting on my Y! 360).
.
.
9.

Another thought crossed my mind today... All of the times that Casey has been hospitalized in Green bay, the hospital has ALWAYS asked what parish/congregation she belongs to, and if she would like a visit from them. She always tell them it is Celebration. (I thought it was called Bayside, but she has corrected me on that).
Anyway, NOT ONCE has anyone from that church ever even contacted her while she was hospitalized, let alone visited her or administered to her. That's plain weird, especially around here.

10.

It is chilly and I believe I would rather be in Alabama.

~~~~~~

Hope all is well with everyone!
I must go eat my chili now!

My love to all.
