As long as I am asking for things...

We have some needs that are big to us but might be small to others.

1) Your old local-to-Ottawa cel phones that can be put on pay-as-you-go.

2) Someone in the SCA community willing to take one of my houseguests, the one who proves to be a reenactor, under their wing and introduce them to the local group.

3) Someone in the queer community who hangs out at the Lookout and similar social venues, willing to take the other houseguest under THEIR wing, for the same social purposes.

4) Clothes to fit a very tall 2-year old boy (he's about as tall as a 3 1/2 year old.)

5) Sturdy winter boots, men's 12-12 1/2 EEEE or wider.

Anyone?

I'm not local enough to help with any of this, but I did want to express my support and respect for what you're doing.

I'll put a link the group on my LJ in the next day or two (trying to work out exactly what it is I want to say about it).

Much love

Catherine

I do have one old cell phone I could contribute.

[commodorified.livejournal.com]

That would rock. Thank you! How should I get it from you?

I can swing the boots, perhaps: How sturdy and how soon do you need them?

[commodorified.livejournal.com]

That would be amazing. Thank you!

"With enough wear in them to keep a person warm for one winter" and "before it's too cold for sneakers" which is probably about November 1.

Okay. Mail to you?

[commodorified.livejournal.com]

Yes, please.

Have I told you lately that you are the sort of friend and honourable opposition it's a privilege and a joy to have in my life?

You are just the best kind of people.

Thank you: one tries not to be a complete pinhead and every so often succeeds.

Boots are en route.

[commodorified.livejournal.com]

If you have to try very hard, it doesn't show.

[commodorified.livejournal.com]

They came! They fit! You are wonderful!

Am giving him your email addy to send a thank-you note.

*hugs you lots*
