I have been doing crazy things lately. Like committing myself to blog EVERYDAY for 30 days. And, the craziness is continuing... Last night I signed up to walk the Breast Cancer 3-day in August of 2009. I am extremely excited and nervous about this comittment. For a couple of reasons. 1.) The training is pretty intesnse. More time consuming that anything. 2.) I have to raise $2,300 and if I do not reach that goal the balance is up to me.
SOO, this means I have to get on the fundraising band-wagon. I have a couple of ides and they are very fun. 1st, I plan to sell used books. I am going to ask friends and family for donations of old books and I am going to sell them at a craft fair or a Flea Market. 2nd, I am going to host a poker tournament at my house with half the proceeds going to the 3-day/half going to the winner. 3rd, I am going to have a garage sale. I will probably also do a Pampered Chef fundraiser, and some other things I haven't even thought of yet.
Do any of you Dear Blog Readers have any other suggestions for me on how to raise funds?
Anyhow, I will start training for the 3-day in February. 6 months of training. I will be blogging about my progress on here, so be sure to check back in the following months to see how I am doing.
Next week I should get my clearance from my OB to start exercising and I have a lot to do to even prepare myself to start the 3-day training. I am honestly out of shape! ;)
This time I will NOT be getting pregnant to ruin this goal for me like happened after this post.
