Thanks for your reports of the monthly meetings. Sure wish we'd get something like that going here. Maybe I just have to thnk harder about what I could do to get enough people who are interested together. I know a few people who are on boards of foundations who could tell me what I need to do to get money.
Maybe there IS a support group in your area? Go to the Neuropathy Association home page and click on where it says support group. I think they ask for your zip code or something like that. Just poke around.

You may actually find a group not to far from you. Wouldn't that be cool?

Oh, I solved the CAKE CARRIER FIASCO.

I went to my local retail store which SELLS EVERYTHING. And not the cheap stuff. I bought this nice cake carrier with a locking mechanism that twists and it LOCKS. Can't fall apart.

But I didn't like the top of it. The handle part. I need a handle that I can slip my fingers through, not some plastic holding thingee.

So I know me. I'm like Macguyver. If I can't find what I want, I MAKE WHAT I WANT.

So I bought the cake carrier for $8.99. Took it home. took one of my old knives that I used for crafting, put it in the flame of my stove, and stuck it through the top thingee. I made MY OWN KIND OF HANDLE.

Works perfectly. So now I have brand new cake carrier that won't break apart.

For $8.99

lol lol lol

Next time. BOSTON CREAM PIE!!!!
