Dear :
 
May is Military Appreciation Month.  
Armed Forces Day is May 15th
Memorial Day is on the 31st
 
 Take the time this month and every  month to say Thank you to our brave men and women serving this great country!
 
Last month A Rose of Thanks went out to Seattle for the National Tattoo Association Convention & family reunion!   These are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet and gifted artists.  Also at the end of the month we ere again out at the Cabarrus County Special Olympics to have athletes sponsors and volunteers sign cards for our troops.
 
Now for the plead for help..... after I got back from Seattle I  got into a car accident and lets just say my Mustang did not survive...So if anyone out there has a spare car that they would like to sell or donate to me & A Rose of Thanks that would be awesome. No Car Payment would equal more money into A Rose of Thanks! :)
 
 
The Country Throwdown tour www.countrythrowdown.com, let me know we have the dates we requested about half of the tour so I would like to ask for some help printing cards, gas cards & or a used RV. Rose Art is helping with pencils, markers, and Crayons. I have friends helping in OH IN IL & CA do the shows I can not make personally!

Book & Quote of the Month

 

 
The book of the month, "Shut Up, Stop Whining and Get a Life" by Larry Winget.  This is an awesome book, an "in your face" message that is a lot of common sense.  Chapter 7 - The Enjoyment Factor - is one of the best!
 
Quote:  "You can't learn anything from experiences you're not having."  Louis L'Amour
