Hi! Welcome...

Wired For Noise I\'m Summer, a mouthy, sarcastic bitch. I\'m passionate about natural birth, long term breastfeeding, and living naturally. I curse too much, love tattoos, and will some day be crushed to death by my book collection. I homeschool, dream of gardening, and swing to the left.

Thankful

Today I am thankful for:

  • sitting in the sunshine reading a book
  • Boy giggles
  • The crunching of leaves
  • A full belly
  • A warm bed

But this family, and so many like them, what do they have to be thankful for today? While you enjoy plates overflowing with turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and pie, what are they eating today? Tomorrow? The day after?

Last year 1 in 8 people went hungry, how many will it be now?

    Honestly I didnt even click the video. I am positive i would cry. I already starting crying just thinking about it. Growing up there were times when i know my mom went without eating to feed us. I wish i could do something so that noone would ever go without food. I hope our children never have to know what thats like. My heart aches for everyone in need.

    That does give you a new look.
    I don’t do Black Fridays.
    I did once years ago and swore I never would again.
    I’m not sure about Christmas this anyways.
