Fundraising

I am a fundraising fool!!! I have started to sell mark...yes, mark...it is an avon line of makeup for youth. As unlikely as that may sound...they are giving me 50% of whatever I sell which means a better chance that my lovely youth will be able to go to new horizons.



I also participated in a car wash.

Soap was also made and sold.

But nothing can compare with what is happening next. This saturday...at my house...there is going to be a....

SPA DAY!

Manicures, pedicures, makeovers, you name it...might...be there!! yeah. hopefully this will make us the hundreds of dollars needed. come...ya know...if you aren't too busy.

I am almost expectant of hearing the doorbell ring and having Ed Mcmahon at my door, with one of those huge checks. He will let me in on the nation's largest practical joke ever...the SAT. Haha, as it turns out, he will tell me, the nation just wanted to freak you out about college with ap tests, sat, and act tests! they don't really mean anything, but if you take so many, you recieve $10,000 for college! Score!



But the bit of realism in me knows that if the doorbell does ring, it will be little Gabrielle down the street wanting to know if fluffy can play and, can she have something to eat?

If you are aware of Dante's Inferno, then you will understand when I say that this past week was lowest level hell week. I had four tests this week, two of them AP, I worked every night, was getting sick, had the SAT yesterday and was attempting to plan a meeting with the youth that fell through. Oh man. I have never felt so successful...oh wait. Yes I have.

Tonight we are having a Cluster Reflection meeting and I am all about it! Bring it on community!!! Show me what you got!!
