While you are online shopping please consider shopping with Pampered Chef. This event is a Fundraiser which means, from all of your purchases, Pampered Chef will donate 10-15% of the total sales to Joy Junction. In addition, I will donate all of my commission to this charity. There will be no online party but just a shopping link. This fundraiser link will be open from Nov 25 - Dec 12. THANK YOU and May you have a BLESSED Thanksgiving.❤❤❤ https://www.pamperedchef.com/party/joyjunctionabq
UPDATE - Jagger, my lost Pomeranian, may be with a homeless couple in ABQ. Please see latest text from an ABQ community member. My daughter works in the ABQ Uptown plaza center and she'll keep a look out in that area. If you happen to see a homeless couple, and they have a Pomeranian that really looks like Jagger, please let me know where you see them at. If my daughter sees them, she will take pictures and I know of community outreach affiliates willing to help me trade the reword of $250 for Jagger. If the homeless couple does have Jagger, they found him and likely trying their best to care for him.
Hi, everyone. I'm looking for my brother-in-law. He's from Az. Mental with dementia. No ID and probably lost his ATM. card. His name is Leonard Combest, 71 yrs. old, no teeth and hard of hearing. I'm sure he is exactly where he wants to be. Would just like to know if he's OK! If you wold friend me I could send a pic of the last sighting out at Fuddruckers by the airport. Do NOT want to file a missing persons, just a welfare check. God Bless and thank you for any and all help. My # is 928 567-6554
