NOTE FROM SHIRLEY:
Interestingly, I think I am the very first person to join their site! How fun is that? I think I'm going to actually try it out. Now all I have to do is figure how what or who I want to raise money for, take some pictures, and see what happens.
And for those of you who remain interested in the Praying For Prosperity project, Here's A Concept.

Wow, that is an interesting website. Maybe you can create a money drive for yourself, maybe for fixing your burnt siding on your house. You could post pictures of it and say you are raising money to fix/replace it. Did you know there is a website where women who want boob jobs can go on there and guys will actually donate to pay for them? I would much rather donate to somebody wanting to fix their house or pay their bills! Maybe I should start a "get out of collections" drive for myself? What do you guys think?
I like it Cindy A "Get out of collections Fund Raiser!" Great idea.
And yes, I think I'm going to do the siding thing - I just have to get out there and take some pictures... etc. How can it hurt?
