Please stop by and click "Like".  I sent out invites, or a page suggestion, to all of you I am Friends with on Facebook.  I hope I didn't miss anyone!  If I did it surely was intentional!!!

It's all brand new to me, so things may look one way today and another way tomorrow!  I'm sure I'll be playing around with the page for a while before I get it right.

Love and Thanks to you all!

Oh thank you both!   I'm sure I'll be adding and subtracting things, as I have no idea what to put on there as of yet.  We also haven't started our web page yet, so maybe Facebook can at least get some people aware.

I recently started a facebook page for the Kidney Foundation here on PEI.. I spent most of the day cursing at it.  But I was able to post 2 notes that I was asked to post
