New Additions received in July - August

It has been a wild summer with a niece having heart surgery, step father having disks removed from his spine and then my Mother being in the hospital for about a week. Granddaughter has gone home to begin school so I now have a moment to post what I received this summer. Some of these are from a group, Crochetlist Crochet Along (CLCAT) on yahoo groups. They sponsered this charity for a month.

Jean Martin: 3 hats (CLCAT)
Beth Parsons: 5 hat and scarf sets (CLCAT)
Kathleen Scott: 3 hats and 3 pair of slippers
? Lewis (MA): 5 hats
Jackie Larson: 16 pair of slippers, 2 pair mittens and 2 hats

I know there are more to post and will post them soon.

Thank you everyone for the donations.

Linda's Lists has officially moved to a new url

With Geocities going down later this summer I decided not to wait and lose everything I created so I have moved my entire site to a new location including all my patterns and recipes.
My new url is:

http://www.lindaslists.net

I will be updating this new url and will no longer update the old one. I will be dropping the old site at Geocities the end of June to give people a chance to update their links.I enjoyed working with Geocites but now am looking forward to working with this new company. I still have the increased bandwidth so people can be able to access my patterns and not see error messages when downloading patterns. There area few links I need to update but otherwise, everything is there and working great.I'm looking forward to an even bigger and better website for all.

Steven's Comfy Toes Delivery for December 2008

All of the donations that were received were delivered to the White Pine County Santa's Elves program to help make children warmer this winter. So many have been hard hit by the economic changes in the world yet they still donated slippers, hats, scarves, mittens and skeins of yarn. I didn't get a picture of the donations but there were several big black plastic bags to deliver. I've already seen several of the hats and mittens on children in the store. I just smiled knowing that this is the face of a child we have helped keep warm. I am going to scan a copy of the letter to post for all to see. One of my resolutions this year is to post the donations one my blog like I originally planned on doing in the first place, then life changed things. thank you to everyone for helping keep a child warm, especially since last night we received over a foot of snow in one night. It is think, wet and deep. We haven't had a storm like this in a while and there is still more to come today and tomorrow.
