Day 55 of...98 Days...The Juggler

I looked in the mirror and thought wow I looked tired and definitely a little beat up from the week.  I have very curly hair and as my husband tells me lovingly it can look crazy wild at times almost reflecting how I feel and today was one of those days.  I am doing all I can to balance work, this campaign and my daughter's wedding.  I have become this expert juggler constantly moving all three balls in the air always trying my best to move everything forward.  It's taken everything I have to be completely organized and dedicate times throughout the day and days of the week to certain tasks.

I was asked am I glad I am doing this campaign and how do I feel about it?  I volunteered to do this I brought all of this on myself. So I thought I would share how I am feeling.

When I was asked to do this campaign I just couldn't say no.  Everyone close to me thought maybe this wasn't the best time to take this on but I thought to myself I have to do this.  I can't bear to hear of another Parent losing a child it's not fair and with funding more research we can find a cure.  I am a Mom planning my daughter's wedding while other Parents to put it quite blunt are planning funerals.  Every 10 minutes we are losing a loved one to blood cancer.

The over 700 downloads on the free iPhone app Light The App dedications to be loved ones just reinforce that piece of our campaign was so well worth it and again confirms we just can't lose another to blood cancer.

Am I tired yes, am I stressed about wanting to fulfill my commitment to this fund-raising campaign and beyond yes but in the end with your help if together we save a life what in the world could be better than that?  So I will keep juggling and I am hoping you will all support the campaign and the efforts.  Every dollar counts to fighting blood cancer and finding a cure!
