Happy Holidays

As this year closes and a new decade approaches, my wish is for brighter futures for us all that will bring jobs to those that are unemployed; homes and food for those that are homeless, our soldiers safety and new homes to the sweet animals living in shelters.

It is with regret that Scents Of Humor will not be able to run our Support Our Troops campaign for 2009.

I appreciate all the past support for this program and pray for the safety of our soldiers every day!

I wish each of you a blessed Thanksgiving!

Upcoming Support Our Troops campaign

2009-06-08T10:20:00.000-07:00

I am in the process of planning another support our troops campaign beginning in the September/October time frame.

I hope that this year's chosen "Scented" Santa will provide us with pictures as I am very disappointed that we didn't receive photos from last year's campaign.

If you are interested in donating again this year, please watch for our newsletter or simply go to www.scentsofhumor.com and click on the support our troops page. I will be posting additional information in September/October.

2009-02-23T06:19:00.000-08:00

Well, it's been 2 months and still no pictures from our Scented Santa; needless to say, I'm rather disappointed.

The Troops Were Very Happy With Our Gifts

2008-12-27T07:28:00.000-08:00

I heard from my "Scented" Santa yesterday and she said that everyone was really happy with the Christmas gifts that they received from Scents Of Humor. She will be sending pictures of their Christmas gathering as soon as she can.

To those that contributed to the Support Our Troops campaign, thank you so much for making this gift giving experience possible.

May you have a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!

The Scents Of Humor Gifts are in the mail!

2008-12-06T04:43:00.000-08:00

I heard from my "Scented" Santa yesterday; when I told her that the packages were on their way, she told me how excited she was and that she couldn't wait to receive the gifts for her unit.

She also said that it meant so much that we are thinking about them and that we did something so wonderful for them. She felt that this was a true blessing and the it will mean so much to the soldiers this holiday season!

It was only due to the generous donations that Scents Of Humor received for this campaign; that we were able to make and send gifts for her entire unit! We mailed 20 boxes containing 315 gifts! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

When celebrating the spirit of this holiday season, I hope that you will include our soldiers and say a prayer for them.

As soon as I receive pictures; I will post them.

2008-11-29T13:03:00.000-08:00

Done and ready to go!!!

A Huge thank you to Nadine Oleksy for her help!

Join Scents Of Humor in supporting our troops

2008-11-25T09:12:00.000-08:00

Well, I'm getting down to the wire; I have 70+ items left to make! I am determined to make my goal of sending over 300 gift items to my "Scented" Santa for distribution!

Please consider donating a Scents Of Humor gift by going to http://www.scentsofhumor.com/ click on the support our troops page and add to cart. Use your own address and the system will calculate the rest.

Some of you may wonder what my motivation is for adopting a soldier to act as my "Scented" Santa. The reason is very simple, I picture myself in some soldier's shoes; away from my country, my home; family and friends. I don't receive any mail, not even a letter from home asking how I'm doing, if I'm making friends, am I getting any sleep, you know, just small talk. I look around my unit and see other soldiers opening letters from their loved ones, maybe a care package and here I sit; waiting for some word from home; anything from someone who cares about me...... and even if I'm one of the lucky ones who hears from my family and friends back home, it encourages me to know that there are others who want to know that I'm doing okay and that we're in their thoughts and their prayers.

These are the thoughts that drive me and I know that together we can let our soldiers know that they are loved, thought of and prayed for all of the time. And even if we can only provide gifts for one unit at a time; it warms my heart to know that we've done the right thing and more importantly, brought a smile to their faces and hopefully it will have brightened their day.

I know that there are many Americans like me who are terribly saddened by the thought of our soldiers not receiving anything from home. I hope that you will join the rest of us in supporting our troops by spreading the word to your family, friends and friends of friends and by donating a Scents Of Humor gift.

Thank you again to those who have already helped by donating to this campaign. Information can be found at http://www.scentsofhumor.com/

Many of you may or may not know that there are soldiers that do not receive any gifts from home. It's heartbreaking, really....

So, last year, I adopted a soldier that took on the task of "Scented" Santa and distributed a small selection of gifts from Scents Of Humor. I received a heartfelt thank you from this group of soldiers along with some great pictures! I decided right then and there that I wanted to send gifts to some of our soldiers every year.

This year's adopted soldier and her unit are stationed in Iraq and I'm delighted to say that she's accepted her role as "Scented" Santa. Over the next couple of weeks, I will be busy in my lab making gifts to send in time for the holidays. I have a lofty goal as there are many soldiers in this unit (over 300) and I would like to send a little something to each and every one of them. However, I need help - I've added a page to my http://www.scentsofhumor.com/ website where you can donate a Scents Of Humor gift to a soldier. You may donate as little as $5.00 plus shipping (minimum $4.80) for each gift.

What you get for your donation:

A smile on a soldier's face
Your name will be posted on this blog as a contributor
Joy in your heart for this act of kindness
My undying gratitude for helping me achieve my goal

January 10th 2008- Today I received the most beautiful gift you can possibly imagine from my "Scented Santa" and the soldiers who received the Scents Of Humor gifts that I sent over the holidays.

Honestly, I was brought to tears, my chest was bursting with pride and I was overwhelmed by the honor they bestowed upon me for this simple act of kindness.

I scanned everything and couldn't wait to post the pictures. (The flag was just too big, LOL). Rest assured that I will be displaying these items proudly in my home!

I was reading the http://www.anysoldier.com/ site and it broke my heart that there are soldiers fighting bravely for our country who do not receive mail or packages from home. And, I thought, my goodness, how selfish of me. So this year I felt that it was high time to get off my butt and do something that would not only make me feel good, but perhaps make others feel good as well. So, I adopted a soldier; well not literally adopted, but I asked her to act as Scented Santa for me. She was nice enough to agree to distribute the items that I sent her for this Holiday Season. Below are some of the pictures that were sent to me from the soldiers that have received Scents Of Humor gifts.

I would ask each and every one of you to say a prayer for our soldiers that they remain safe and come home soon. I would also urge you to look deep into your heart and look at the http://www.treatanysoldier.com/ website and order something for our soldiers. They have a variety of items that the soldiers would love to receive. Of course, you can also go to http://www.scentsofhumor.net/ and http://www.scentsofhumor.com/ and order something for the soldiers. I will make it my mission this year to send goodie packages to more of our soldiers. Who knows, I may just adopt a slew of them and have a franchise of Scented Santa's throughout the world!
