I felt fab in this. <br /><br />Yes, I was raised to give back to my community, either through donating money, raising money, or by shopping locally (I shop at charity-run thrift stores!). <br /><br />Thank you! It took a while, but it's good to have them packed away securely again. I love watching the squirrels in our trees - there are tons of them. They are so smart!
