For anyone who wants to send a care package to an evacuee, the address here in Oklahoma is:
Any Evacuee c/o Camp Gruber
100 Highway 10
Braggs, OK 74423
I'm thinking about things to help stay busy, cards, games, craft kits, stamps, envelopes, paper, notebooks, writing utensils, small toys, books...as well as things people have to be asking for all the time...toiletries, treats, makeup, hair bands...I know there are some other things, I just can't think of them offhand. If you can think of anything I left off, please post in the comments!
I've sent them to soldiers and now I'll send them to evacuees, too. I'm sending at least one on Tuesday.
I just can't IMAGINE having everything swept away and having to rely totally on strangers.
Vague ramblings by me, behavioral med/research nurse extraordinaire, widely-collected artist (OK, so I've only sold 4 paintings) and ebay queen. Delve into the life of a not-so-average, overweight, over-the-hill single mom...such crazy excitement (yeah, right)!

Thanks so much for posting this information. I'll be putting something together with the kids this week. You're right.. it is hard to imagine dealing with all of your possessions gone.
Thank you for posting this!
