 The best thing about JAB is seeing it from the JABBER's perspective. Last week I was thrilled to get lots of great replies on my ant problem, and I want to say thank you. For those of you who wonder where those responses go, we are collecting your pearls of wisdom for something that will eventually be called the Treasure Chest. So,when you need help finding something, and you remember that you read about it in JAB, you will know where to look. That should be online this summer. In the meantime, keep posting your questions, and Happy JABBING! |

Families Looking for Missing Miami Teens
Nicole Marie Dones, 17, and boyfriend Jackson Wayne Powell, 18, haven't been  seen since Monday evening, according to the Miami-Dade Police department.
The families of two Miami teens who have been missing since last week are worried for their safety. Police say Dones was last seen leaving her home in the 11000 block of Southwest 87th Ave. with a few bags with personal belongings. The 5-foot-5, 120-pound teen is likely with Powell, police said. The families of both teens will be making a public plea to try to find out what happened to them. Authorities are asking anyone with information to call the Miami-Dade Police Department at 305.418.7201.

Diaper Free Baby From: Marley Aleman Reply I'm 6 months pregnant and I'm looking at alternative solutions to diapers. I have read about Elimination Communication and I was wondering if anyone has tried it. I would love to hear stories, successful or otherwise, tips and suggestions on how to even begin with this process. Also, if there are any support groups in the area, I would love to meet with them. Thanks! Cleaning for a Reason If you know any woman currently undergoing chemotherapy, please pass the word to her that there is a cleaning service that provides FREE housecleaning - once per month for 4 months while she is in treatment. All she has to do is sign up and have her doctor fax a note confirming the treatment. Cleaning for a Reason will have a participating maid service in her zip code area arrange for the service. This organization serves the entire USA and currently has 547 partners to help these women. It's our job to pass the word and let them know that there are people out there that care. Be a blessing to someone and pass this information along. Click HERE for more information.*

Are you looking for something specific but don't know how to find it? A handyman? A lamp repair shop? A personal trainer or caterer or piano teacher? Wondering where you can buy a new swingset? JAB it! Simply email me at courtney@justaskboo.com , I'll post your request on the next newsletter, and other readers will respond directly to you. That's it. No strings, no drama.
