Dear Friends and Family,

I recently accepted the challenge to raise funds to support the Susan G. Komen
for the Cure in its efforts to end breast cancer forever, which a woman has a 1
in 8 chance of developing in her lifetime. I will also take part in the Komen
Tidewater Race for the Cure as part of this program.

Please help support me in this important project by contributing generously to
Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Your tax-deductible contribution will fund services
in the Tidewater and Southeast Virginia area that include education, screening,
treatment and patient support.. It is faster and easier than ever to support
this great cause - you can make your donation online by simply clicking on the
link at the bottom of this message. If you would prefer, you can also send your

Julia Ruane-Smith

I discovered this wonderful charity that teams people up with patients who are going through chemo and we send letters, cards, and little gifties to the patients while they are going through chemo to brighten their day. My first patient is about to graduate and I am now anxious to get my new patient! It is fun and it feels good to give back! Here is the addie if you are interested:

My picture "Guardian Angel of Dogs" won 2nd place in the Drawing Category!!!!!




Funny thing is someone spelled Guardian and Dogs wrong!




Now I want to know who that plump person standing infront of my skinny self is! LOL

According to the media it has basically been decided that the light in
the sky was a part of a Russian Rocket that took off on "Thursday" and
it landed in the ocean. Well, okay, but I would think that the "space
junk" would have been burnt up a long time ago and isn't it convenient
that it crashed into the ocean especially since according to what I
saw on the news it was last seen somewhere over the middle of NC.

It is fun to think that it could have been Aliens....
I haven't seen Fox but I have smelled a sensual perfume in the air! Oh wait, I forgot, Spring has sprung and flowers are blooming...
