One week to go.....

The party is only one week away. I'm VERY excited. I can't wait to see/hear melaniejane perform. And, what's also cool -- a couple people from high school are coming and I haven't seem them SINCE graduation in 1992! That is going to be so cool.

I hope everyone who's in town that night can make it. Some peeps are taking much-deserved vacations. Thanks to all of you for your notes!

New Raffle Item: A Frank's Christmas

Thanks go out to Let Me Be Frank productions who donated two tickets to its holiday show, a Frank's Christmas, to be held at the Meyer Theatre this November. If you want to laugh so hard your cheeks hurt, don't miss one of these shows! www.meyertheatre.org

Two new raffle items!

Big thanks go to Green Bay Packers Community Outreach for sending me a 2008 autographed football for the raffle! For you Packer Backers - these are transferred signatures - not original. (Don't want to be misleading.) :) But, very cool indeed. (Favre signed the left top corner with Favre, #4, maybe, kinda, sorta.) LOL.

AND --thanks to Dino Bilotti @ Bilotti's Pizza Garden who donated a gift certificate for one large pizza! Yum yum. If you haven't had their pizza, you're missing out. So yummmmmmy. Check out Bilotti's in De Pere right on Broadway. http://www.bilottispizzagarden.com/

My cute lil car!

Ah. Isn't that adorable? Look at my cute lil car? Larry Oberman at FastSigns donated my vehicle graphics as part of its the Signs of Kindness effort. I dropped off my car last Friday and voila, thanks to Paul (FastSigns staff), they had my car done before 2pm that same day!

I'll sport the graphics on my lil beetle sport through the marathon!

If you can't read that, it reads "Fight Leukemia and Lymphoma. Runformydad.blogspot.com.

I am SO grateful for all the support offered to me by local businesses!

Thanks, FASTSIGNS!
