So many thoughts..

SO Stressed out.
Last night I was talking to Gabe about something I read up on, on another blogging site. The lady talked about how she raises money for the walk and whatever extra, she then helps her friends with. This means we all have to raise the donation on our own not as a team, as I thought I had heard. Gabe thinks that's to much, but I told him I won't let something like that stop me. I will stand in front of Wal-Mart and Safeway or even do a bake sale to get donations. I have until October anyway!

I am looking for creative ways to raise money. I know about scratch cards and coupon cards and even bake sales. I just read about a lady who used business cards as she walked. I asked to see a mini copy of it so I can get an idea as well.

I won't let this be the one thing that stops me from doing the walk.

This is why...

Fundraising and our goal

Our goal is to raise $2300 as a team but we know how we just love to fund-raise. I'd like to make more then that. I was reading a blog today and I thought humm.. if everyone could just do something simple like this, then we'd raise enough money for our team's goal.

"I know that the economy has taken a toll on many and that financial circumstances may have changed. But contributions start at $5. And dollars add up quickly. How's this for a deal: I'll walk 60 miles in three days – in Chicago ... in August – if you'll skip one Starbucks between now and then and contribute that cash to the 3-Day. Ooh, or better yet, one Starbucks a month! Or whatever dollar amount is right for you, as they say on public television."

This week some time I will put on the blog a donation button linking directly to the Susan G Komen 3 day walk event. The walk we are doing is for the SF Bay Area in Oct.

Ready Set ... GO!

I am getting all geared up for our training for our three day walk!!
I am looking forward to working it up for the big day! 3 day walk, wow that is a lot!

I have been reading blogs on how to gear up for the big day. I think I've been touched by others stories and their journey with breast cancer, I feel the need to contribute.

Feel free to add me to your blog!

I just got it going today, I will be posting my journey on the walk and everything else to come.
