It's May!

Wow, May is already upon us!

Happy Birthday all you May babies! Lindsay, John and Chris. I think there may be another May birthday but I am not sure who. Sorry!

Well my garage sale went pretty well. I made about $400 which sounds good until I remember that I am splitting that 3 ways! I am now wishing I had put my kitchen table out there too.

I got some good advice from a neighbor who did something similar to this walk we are doing. She raised $15,000 for pancreatic cancer. She said it is all about networking. So I am going to redo my e-mail letter and send it out again. This time I am sending it to everyone in my e-mail address book who is not on our team or involved with our team. I am going to ask them to donate and to forward it to everyone in their e-mail address books. Then I am going around to all the houses in the neighborhood and putting a letter in their mailboxes asking them to donate and then pass the letter on to someone else they know. I may also go into the next neighborhood and do that also. Hopefully I will see some results from that.

Also, I walked 6 miles in the rain today, it wasn't half bad. I found out my raincoat is pretty waterproof! I did have to change shoes after 4 miles though. I wore my more waterproof shoes to start out with but they hurt my feet after a while. So everyone get out there rain or shine and walk I promise you won't melt. After all I didn't and I am so sweet! :)

$400 is better then nothing!

And what is with this sweet thing? You may eat a lot of sweets but that doesn't make you sweet like it.
