Supplies to expand my new hobby....jewlery making

Recently out of sheer boredom and need for something different, I began making feather extension hair clips and earrings. Now that I see this is something I can really pick up I want to expand and learn more. I started dabbling in beadwork and LOVE IT. I am constantly reading on line different projects. My only set back is that I need some supplies. I just had surgery on June 3 and my next couple of checks are going to be SQUAT.....so I dont have extra to spend. I already have one person who wants me to make a few things to consign at her Hair salon......I just need to get started. 30.00 will get me the basics of what I need to get going. Thank you for viewing my wish!

money to buy school supplies and clothing

My baby is starting kindergarten this August! Im trying to get a head start on making sure she has all her school needs. I edited this because I ordered her backpack but I just found out she will need a uniform. They recommended atleast a skirt, 2 pairs of slacks and 2 shirts. They didnt say anything about shoes so I dont know if the ones I have for her will work or not.

Domestic Violence Awareness

Domestic Violence Awareness

I would like everyone to be aware of what domestic violence really is. Its not only men beating wives and girlfriends. It can be physical, emotional , sexual, financial, even legal abuse that is meant to control someone else. Its perpetrated by those who we are supposed to be able to trust the most--those we live with, love and create families with.

It can happen to anyone, male or female. It can happen to adults or children. It doesn't matter if you're educated, wealthy, or religious. It can happen to your closest friends and family; you may never know because its something most people keep a dark secret by covering for their abuser, since it may be the person they cherish most in the world.

The abuser can seem like the nicest person, best father and amazingly attentive and kind husband, but this may be a facade. You may be abused for years yourself before you even realize what is happening.

Here are some signs from the hotline [ link ]

You may be in an emotionally abusive relationship if your partner:

Calls you names, insults you or continually criticizes you.
Does not trust you and acts jealous or possessive.
Tries to isolate you from family or friends.
Monitors where you go, who you call and who you spend time with.
Does not want you to work.
Controls finances or refuses to share money.
Punishes you by withholding affection.
Expects you to ask permission.
Threatens to hurt you, the children, your family or your pets.
Humiliates you in any way.

You may be in a physically abusive relationship if your partner has ever:

Damaged property when angry (thrown objects, punched walls, kicked doors, etc.#.
Pushed, slapped, bitten, kicked or choked you.
Abandoned you in a dangerous or unfamiliar place.
Scared you by driving recklessly.
Used a weapon to threaten or hurt you.
Forced you to leave your home.
Trapped you in your home or kept you from leaving.
Prevented you from calling police or seeking medical attention.
Hurt your children.
Used physical force in sexual situations

If you or someone you love may be in a domestic violence situation, call 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)

Tessa is expecting a little cutie in October and I'd like her to be able to get a Halo Sleepsack for him or her. They are so comfy and they reduce the risk of SIDs, so they are always on the top of my lists for baby gifts.

They are wearable blankets that you put over the baby's sleep clothes so you don't have to worry about them kicking off blankets in the middle of the night. They also come in swaddle version to keep babies even more comfy.

So I asked my wife rebelwithkidz to make a wish for me but she said no to make it myself so here I am. My wish is for the money for two dodgers tickets so I can go to dodger stadium with my daughter on Ethier bobble head night. Ethier is my favorite player and I would like to see him play in person and get a bobble head too. The wish money would cover the cost of two tickets. I want to take my daughter with me because she is a big dodgers fan just like me even though shes only 10 years old.

5th Grade Workbooks and Supplies for my Daughter

5th Grade Workbooks and Supplies for my Daughter

I just had a meeting last week with my daughter's school principal and teacher and they are concerned because every year she falls behind in school and just manages to scrape by. Now that she's going into 5th grade the work is going to be a lot harder. Since summer school is no longer offered to regular ed students they suggested a couple of workbooks I should get and have her work in each day during the summer to help keep her skills fresh and get her off to a good start in 5th grade. I just really don't have anything extra right now and could really use some help getting her workbooks, a journal for writing and a few cute school supplies to make it fun for her.
THanks for looking at my wish!

sheets,2 twin,1 queen

I put this as needy cz they dont have any sheets right now. I have no clue what happened to the twin sheets during the move but Liv's queen sheet has reached its last leg. I know sheets cost more than what Im asking but I think we're going to look at the thrift store up the road and be creative with what we find. Id like to let them decorate the sheets with fabric paint and homemade stamps. Used is of course fine.

I don't have any type of summer shoes and would really like to have a pair of sandals or flip flops for when my feet and ankles swell in the summer heat. It would make it so much more comfortable for me to walk. Thank you for taking a look at my wish.

Money to go towards my pets surgery

Money to go towards my pets surgery

My dog Jade, twisted her knee while running and needs surgery asap. I found a surgeon, hes not an orthopedic surgeon but has performed the ACL repair-TTA procedure hundreds of times and will cost about $2000. I have totally racked out my CC with almost $400 for emergency visit, follow up with regular vet Ortho consult, and pain medication.

I am collecting items locally for a fundraiser yardsale/bakesale/kids games sometime in June to raise funds so every little bit adds up.
I have a WUAH with $120 so far, that was from me, my daughter and niece.
I have a Giveforward with $100 so far, again from my daughter and me.
I also have a chip in, those donations are from GON members, thank you.

I am hoping to get her surgery this week, using the Care Card I was surprised I was approved and use donations and fundraiser money to pay it back as I could not add another bill to my budget.

Thank you everyone for reading my wish.

Im putting this as needy because I am in need of some new tops to wear this summer. Most of my clothes I have already outgrown. It is already starting to get hot, and im already getting miserable.
None of my old tank tops fit anymore, and I thought this would be a nice way to cool down a bit, and still look nice.
