I almost forgot to post a blog today! I’m not ready to use my one ‘free’ day this early in the 30-day challenge process. I do need to get a couple extra ‘in the bag’ so that I don’t have to write at post at 9:30 p.m. on Saturday night.
I attended the summer season mentor meeting today. I will be fundraising this time so I have to start thinking of my approach.
This time will be different. This year I feel like I have a broader reach because of the connections I now have on Facebook and through Twitter. How I would really like it to work is that I get 100 people to donate $25 each. That would bring me to $2500 which is just 300 short of my goal, but I’m sure a few people will want to do more than that so the difference would be eliminated pretty easily. I think it’s doable. I think everyone I know should be able to give $25.
I began my holiday baking this evening. I made pumpkin bread, fresh apple bread, rocky road, and caramel layer choco-squares. I still have some lemon loaves, cranberry bread, double chocolate crinkles and a couple other things to make. I’ll have my daughter Claire make a couple of types of cookies and then we’ll be done. I love baking. Like crocheting, I like to make stuff that I can share with others. It brings me joy!
Now it smells like Christmas around here as much as it looks like Christmas. The wreath that I ordered from BHSME and the poinsettia I ordered from the BHS Ski Team were both delivered today. I do love the smell of a fresh wreath. I got a pink plant and it is very pretty, a nice shade of pink.
Time to prepare for bed - getting up early tomorrow to go for a walk in North Portland. I hope it's not too cold!
