My day has been non-stop making breakfast, making lunches, making coffee… Driving the boy to school, coming home, making graphics, working on blog, and then another….

Irene……. Irene hit the east coast HARD. Lots of places had major flooding and there are people who scarcely got out of there house with the clothes on their back. Now, a few days later, they are getting to go back to their mud covered houses to salvage what they can. The first thing that most of them look for is, a photo album.
