Here is the official flyer for my adopt a grandparent campaign. I currently have taken in $20/$300

The second photo is to show that I do have socks and the lip balm already. I just need to buy the candy and start wrapping everything up. I will keep this updated as I get money in. Last year I spent $700 of my savings thinking I was going to be able to get it back fairly easy. I did not get it all back and it was like pulling teeth to get anyone to donate anything. The newspaper would not help me unless I bought an ad and the Chamber of Commerce told me they did their own charity work and they did not promote anyone else's.
I actually got more money from people on Tumblr that I had never met than I did any of the people in the community who actually knew the elderly patients these gifts are going to.
You can click on the top picture or the bottom picture and enlarge it for the donation information. Please pass this along. I would be very grateful.

$60/$300

Perhaps I am showing my age, but I miss giving/receiving gift baskets for holidays. Who doesn't like a little bundle of random treats and a mug that isn't your style and some brand of cookies that you've never heard of and are insanely delicious but aren't available commercially?

As she does every year, Princess Grace presents gifts to the elderly of the principality on behalf of the Monegasque Red Cross during Christmas 1975.

Baby boy brother birthday photos from last year that I just realized I never uploaded!
#cats#also hopefully it's not weird to still post photos of George (the brown cat) even after his death a little while ago. I just have so many#beautiful old pictures of him that I still love but just never had the time to sort through or upload (my cat photos folder on my#computer had like 450 pictures in it or something lol... SO many). I feel like it's kind of just honoring or appreciating him#and not actually strange or anything. like what am I supposed to do. delete them?? I want to share them still because he is beautiful and#perfect ! idk. aNYWAY. Also this is their 2022 birthday when they turned 14 years old. (even though I think when I posted#their 2021 bday I might have said they were 14 then too. I was off by a year lol). 2023 when they turned 15 I unfortunately#was feeling kind of sick at the time and didn't really have the energy to do the decorations like I usually do. So they just got a few#treats and stuff. But I didn't know that would be george's last birthday lol. :/#They also do not really know or care though. they're cats who cannot process it or know the concept of birthdays so. eh#I still have no idea how these got lost on the computer though. Like I had them fully edited ready to post but just sitting in a folder??#Since MARCH 2022 lol... ??? the folder was in another folder of pictures so maybe that's how I overlooked it#But it's my 'once every 4 months computer organizing and clean out time' so I was going tghrough looking for pictures#I could drafts posts out of or sort or etc.#They got lots more treats for this birthday because one of my friends actually game me a few gifts for them#elderly boys.!!!!#I used to write in the little caption/image description sections to talk about them all individually but at some point tumblr broke that#feature and for so long they never saved or weren't visible so I stopped doing them and just ramble a bunch in the tags instead#but I kind of miss them. Thinking about old posts of the cats where I commented on each photo individually too lol.. the good ole days

As a queer person it is your life's work to grow old, and that is enough. For many who came before you, survival wasn't an option. Simple existence is an honor to their memory. Just being, in whatever form that takes for you, is an act of rebellion. Whether you are out and visibly queer or closeted, you are the culmination of every secret smile and stolen kiss that came before you.

The Beauty in Growing Old
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I truly believe it is such a beautiful thing to have the privilege of living a long life. An even greater privilege to live a long life full of love. Everyone is so scared of aging, how their faces will change and how wrinkles will form on their body. But I think every wrinkle tells a story, that they're souvenirs you earn along the way. There is nothing scary about that.

I have finally encountered a sudoku puzzle that I cant do, my experience has caught up to me and I am now being forced to do the big-boy puzzles that require you to think even more deeply about the hidden clues in the numbers and their placement.
I am self-imploding
ITS ONLY LEVEL TWOOOO

I am starting to put everything together now. Putting cards in envelopes and labeling them as men or ladies to go with the appropriate gifts. I got half of the candy bagged today and will probably start wrapping up the men's gifts tomorrow. I did have to order a little bit more of the Christmas ribbon candy which has turned out to be really expensive this year. I can remember when I used to get a can for about 350 now it is about $9.
I am going to have some of my students signs some more cards and I have about 25 more cards to sign myself so I'm about halfway done and I am putting down the names of every person that donated or the initials.
I still have a week to go. I am going to deliver them on December 16th which is the anniversary of my father's death.
Thank you to all of those who donated.❤️❤️❤️💚💚🎄🎄🍬 I could not have done any of this without you !
If anyone would like to make a small $5 to $10 donation here is my info:
Venmo: @coldeternal
Paypal: PunkRockTeacher

That whole “only children are spoiled” stereotype doesn’t take into consideration working and lower middle class families. My guy I quite literally did not have cable growing up. You also grow up extremely isolated and burdened with responsibility. I grew up to have the worst case of eldest daughter syndrome while being the only child my mother could have.

If your grandad has a more adventurous spirit, outdoor gear or experiences could be the ideal gift. A thermal flask for his morning walks, a comfortable camping chair for relaxing in the garden, or tickets to a sporting event he loves are all great options. Alternatively, consider gifting him a subscription box tailored to his interests, whether it's food, beer, or gadgets.
For the grandad with a sweet tooth, a gourmet food hamper filled with his favorite treats is sure to delight. Or, if he's a tea or coffee lover, a selection of premium teas or coffees and matching accessories would be a thoughtful gesture.
Remember, the best gifts often come from the heart. Consider creating a personalized gift, such as a photo album or a framed family portrait. Alternatively, you could spend quality time with him, going for a walk, playing a game, or simply chatting. These shared experiences are often the most treasured gifts of all.
