The Latest NieNie Update

by

Gorgeous blogger Practically Perfect in Every Way alerted me to the latest update on NieNie, the blogger who was critically injured in a plane crash last summer. I urge you to read the story and check out NieNie’s blog here. Yes, she’s back to blogging. It’s a miracle.

Last year, you generous blog readers helped me raise nearly $3,000 for NieNie’s expenses, with Deja Pseu leading the way. (DP, your earring design is underway at last! You’ll see it in 2009, I swear!) For all my NieNie posts, click here.

UPDATED FEB. 6 TO ADD: Don’t panic, people. There is a Blogger error that temporarily has NieNie’s blog down. Her sister says they’re working on it.
