Adopt A Family with Uppity this Christmas!

I emerge from NaNoWriMo and the inevitable few days of post-blitz exhaustion and what do I see?

That Christmas is only twenty days away. Jesus, how did that happen?1

…though I am still organizing my annual an Adopt-A-Family effort, courtesy of my employer and local charity Solid Ground.

This year it’s a family of five: Mom and her two girls (14 and 12) and two boys (7 and 1).

I’m buying their gifts this week – warm winter coats, shoes, and toys, plus a gift certificate from a grocery store for a holiday meal.

Righteous Ribs, come be a Secret Santa with me!

The easiest way to donate is to send the amount of your choice to me via Pay Pal – just click on the Coffee Cup in the sidebar on the right. 2

Every cent of every donation will go toward gifts for our Family!

Thank you so much and check back here at the Rib for updates, thank you’s, and pictures!
