Comment for a Cause

OK Ladies, I'm gonna say it - I'm disappointed. I thought I would certainly have 100 comments on my 100th post to contribute $100 to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, but alas, we are nowhere close. Just because I'm not giving away fun jewelry or monogrammed gifts doesn't mean we shouldn't be just as excited!! You see that pink banner to the left? Not one person has posted that on their blog yet. It's surprising how quick the free gifts catch on when we have the chance to win something, but when we have the chance to give something, not so much excitement there.

There, I said it.

Oh, and I've committed to doing the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in DC May 2-3, 2009. You'll be hearing about all of the training for the 39 mile walk. I've been inspired by my friend Katy who has participated in the walk two times, has crewed once and is walking in the DC walk as well. Walk on!

  2. Gah - so frustratingly typical. Someone gives away a $10 gift donated by a retailer who's looking for free coverage and it gets over $100 hits and you graciously ask folks just to leave a comment and it barely registers with them.

    Sheez... are you still doing this? I'd love to post about it and maybe share some of my readers with you as a result! Shoot me an email - Lisa (at) RaleighwoodMediaGroup (dot) com, if so!

Happy Pills

I'm a crazy person. At least, that's what I feel like some times. And it runs in my family. No, not really crazy (and don't take offense if you are one of me), but just clinically depressed and filled with anxiety. It's as if I don't have something to worry about in my head constantly, then I don't feel normal. Luckily, there's a pill for that. It's a bitter pill, one that I'll basically have to take the rest of my life, but I've slowly accepted that it's like any other disease, and just like diabetes or heart disease, that little pill is gonna make me better. But that little pill makes me gain weight, gives me the brain shivers when I miss it, and although I've tried to get off it multiple times, I just can't. So I guess that makes me an addict as well. But it's a pill that my grandparents and family didn't always have, and they suffer from it as well, so I should be thankful for this little red capsule of happiness...
