This week

This week I have made progress in my journey. I have officially raised $599 with another $60 that hasn't been applied to my 3-Day account. I have officially hit the 20% mark...Woohoo! I know I still have a long way to go, but I really a little better with 20% of my funds raised. I have several great money makers coming up...2 garage sales, my flamingo flocking, and my friend who for her house warming is asking for donations to support me. Here's the specifics on the fundraisers you can have a part in.

Garage Sales: I'm having one in Wichita, KS on Saturday, May 29th 8am-2pm. If you have any items you'd like to donate please let me know ASAP so I can arrange to get them from you. Than I'm having another in Omaha, NE mid-June (I'll give you the specific date as soon as I have it).

Flamingo Flocking: I have a collection of 25 PINK flamingos that will migrate to your friend's front yard for a day for a $25 donation. Contact me to pick a date ASAP!

I'm also hoping to get permission to collect donations in front of some local stores for a few weekends during the month of June.

Also, this week I have walked 7 miles and I have a 7 mile walk tomorrow and another 6 miles to do on Sunday. I'm getting more and more excited everyday...I look forward to my walks and I love getting outside.

My 3-Day purchases this week will also involve my fanny pack and shopping for shoes. I'm going to get professionally fitted tomorrow and will then be looking for the best deal on my "ideal" shoes.

I love this challenge and I can't believe that 14 weeks from today I will be camping out in a sea of pink tents with a couple thousand other walkers. I can't wait!!!!
