My recommitment papers were due back to the TNT office on April 1st. No fooling around for them--they want to know we're serious!
I got the call tonight to confirm my travel arrangements. I plan to extend my stay a few days to visit with friends Adriana and Todd. Seattle, here I come!
I am both excited and admittedly, nervous. You get to a certain point where you think, "what did I get myself into?!?" I have committed to a lot here! I am testing both my physical and my mental/emotional strength. My anxiety is at a high right now, and it's affecting my sleep. I can't say the stress is all bad, some of it is good. I felt awesome running 12 miles around the lake on Saturday! You'd think it would tire me out so much I'd sleep well! But I think I am nervous about being able to raise the last half of my fundraising goal. I have to get creative now...
Speaking of creative, I started making handmade bracelets and necklaces. I plan to sell them and contribute all of the proceeds to my fundraising campaign.
Here are a few examples:
These are just a few of the ones I have made. They will be available at Macha Teahouse (www.machateahouse.com), or you can request one from me directly!
I was having technical problems and wasn't able to upload photos of the necklaces... I'll work on that--never claimed to know what I was doing with these posts!
Another fundraising idea I am tossing around is to host a "Speed Dating" session. I'm still working on a location, but I think it could be fun! Pass the word onto all your single friends! More info to come... (I promise!)
