For A Good Cause

I have been fortunate to spend the last seven years as the co-chair for a major fundraiser we do for our school district. What started out as an idea morphed into a reality where we make in excess of $30,000 each year. The monies have been used to make fabulous upgrades of all kinds in each of the five schools.

Check it out: LIVE 2014

It is a wedding without the bride and groom.

We are a committee of 23 women. Each one of us does our part to make it happen. This year we are hoping to make it happen seamlessly. Some parts are bigger than others, but each and every person makes a contribution to the event that is worthy and important.

Watching this event unfold through the years has been such a joy. I have met countless amazing women. I have worked hand in hand on every part of this event, from beginning to end, and I know just what goes into it.

This will be my final year involved behind the scenes of LIVE.

I will always be a proponent of this school district; I will support it in any way I can. As long as I live here it just makes sense to be that way.

I know the event will be a huge success - it can't be anything but tremendous with the people involved and more importantly with the guests coming.

If you haven't already bought your tickets (if you live around here, of course) I urge you to do so within seconds of reading this. You won't want to miss this.

Updates: Evelyn, Jake, and Nancy

Yesterday morning, I sat at my desk and wept when I read that my friend Evelyn Hathaway's mom died on Tuesday. I am so happy I was able to know and work with Arlene Paterno. To have a poncho she made for me out of pure love. To eat some of her delicious biscotti. To share a part of my life with a genuinely wonderful woman. I know she is soaring among the stars keeping an eye out for us. We're lucky to have such a special angel in our midst. Please keep my friend Evelyn in your thoughts as she begins the process of saying goodbye to her mom. She will need all the light we can muster in the sky. xo

This morning Jake is heading into the hospital for a CAT scan. He has been having headaches and vomiting. Amy said he is quite upset that he didn't have a new T-shirt to wear this morning. You gotta love the 12 year old mind.

Nancy's second mass in her breast was benign! I think it was the prayer shawl from Suz Crew coupled with the multitude of good thoughts of many. Please continue to keep Nancy in your thoughts as she continues with her treatments for breast cancer.
Come on people now
smile on your brother
Everybody get together
try to love one another right now
