Thank you for visiting my page! I am excited as this is my very first time participating in this walk. I can admit it is emotional overload! I'm excited because I get to walk to celebrate everyone who has been touched in some way by breast cancer. I'm even more excited because I'm walking in memory of my grandmother who passed away due to breast cancer. I'm nervous because this is a huge commitment. I am confident because I have support and I appreciate it all! Thank you.
With this...
Please support me as I take an amazing journey in the fight against breast cancer! The Breast Cancer 3-Day is a 60-mile walk over the course of three days. Net proceeds benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure and National Philanthropic Trust, funding important breast cancer research, education, screening, and treatment.

My friend made these, and I thought they were really cute, so she and I made a fundraiser out of it! I took some pictures to give you an idea...

Domain!
So to be creative... I'm putting a magnet on my car... and the new domain to bring everyone here...

I love it! I know it may offend some... but the magnet will be clear of what the site is about!

Excited!
Last night I had my first meeting at the local hospital. I met some wonderful women who are walking and crewing this wonderful event. And I can honestly say after last night... I don't think this will be my first, last and only year I walk. I can definetely see this as a yearly thing I do. I'm looking forward to this and last night really renewed my energy that was already abundant. The Lord has truly shown me what path I'm to take right now.
I am soooo excited!

So yesterday... although emotionally challenging... was alright. I had a pretty good day. I've come to realize that things in life happen for reasons that are completely unknown. And yesterday... I was shown the reason why I'm walking.
I have the hugest smile on my face right now thinking about all of this.

Today's rough...
I warned everyone yesterday... that today will be a not so good day. Today will be hard on me and basically don't mess with me. As bad as it sounds. But I know how I get on 4/22. 8 years ago today, I lost my grandmother to breast cancer. I wasn't home. I was at a wedding that started the same time as her death. When I got home, she was already off to be cremated. I didn't get to say goodbye. I spent many years upset at her because I wanted to stay home and she told me to go that she would be waiting for me when I got home. Well she wasn't. And I was angry that she lied. Then I realized, she did what every grandmother would do. She spared me the pain of that day. Even though I'm in pain now... she thought I would be better off not being there when my mom or her boyfriend Roger couldn't wake her up. I love my grandmother, but she was a stubborn lady. My mom says I'm just like her. I miss her. I love her. And she is the motivation I need to finish this walk. I am doing it in honor of her. I just hope today goes by fast.

It is a beautiful day!
I'm at work right now... got here at 9, here until 7... yea it's a long day, thankfully I love my job!
I got sleep last night... so waking up this morning and popping out of bed wide eyed was a great feeling. My daughter didn't fight me too bad... except she wanted to watch the rest of Caillou... which would have made her miss the bus, so she was a little upset. My youngest daughter was happy go lucky.
I take my shower, get dressed and walk outside... it's not even 9 am and it's gorgeous! Has to be in the high 60s. I get to work... and UPS is there to meet me with 2 cases of one of the most valuable products we sell. We cannot keep them on the shelf. I get to fill the orders and get them ready to send out!
This day started out good... and it's beautiful out.
I sold my first ribbon which made me grin ear to ear. The support I am receiving from family and friends is overwhelming. I don't have enough words to express how happy I am right now.
Here's to a continued beautiful day!

1st Fundraiser!
I wanted to do something different to raise money for walking the 3Day Breast Cancer walk...
I've had a shirt custom designed... here's the deal...
For 1 of the days I walk, I'm wearing this shirt... and I will be pinning pink ribbons all over my shirt, front and back... on these ribbons will be celebrating different people.
If you want to celebrate someone... you can purchase a ribbon for $5 each.
On the ribbon, you can choose:
"In memory of...." or "In honor of..." or any other phrase you want.
Payment can be made through here!
If you pay through there, please leave me a message and say it's for a ribbon, and then email me what you want written. Or you can put what you want on the ribbon on the "honor roll".
Thank you in advance!!!

Reflection
I'm pretty excited to see how much support I have from people in my life. I did my first day of training on Sunday. I walked for 2 1/2 hours around a mall... I know it's not "real training" but my butt was whipped after that!
I've been given quite of bit advice... and I'm writing it all down. I got some new shoes... one pair is pink! I'm thinkin of some fundraising ideas... and I'm so excited!
