Well, it would seem, I am famous. One of the parents at the school where we made the lunch bags for, works for the community press and they publicly thanked me, my daughter and my mom for our generous gift to the kids for Earth Day. It had a picture of the kids holding the lunch bags. I was unable to attend the Earth Day thing, because we had already promised a BBQ for one of our Associates. Tom has Fetal Alcohol Sysdrom and every year Tom walks to raise money for the awareness of this uncurable but 100% preventalbe diesease. Oh no I sound like a commercial now. Anyway, the BBQ made $505. and it was fun to do something other than sit in the office all day, and it was a beautiful day. I have a picture of me BBQing so I will get it downloaded on the computer and post it
I do not want anyone to feel obligated to pledge me for my relay for life. Our team goal was to get $100. from online, $100 in person and walmart is giving $100 to each of our 20 team members. I have already accomplished my $100 online and I have $30.in person and with all the fundraisers we have done lately I got my $100 from walmart, so I doing good, dont feel bad if you cant.
I get at least 4 call a week for donations and I have to say no. Last summer I ended up with a credit card bill of over $100. because I couldn;t say no. I say it now.
I know we all do what we can, we just good people us MacAulay's.
As some as you have experienced, I think I can post on facebook, I think I did it right, if no one has heard from me let me know, because, obviously, I'm wrong and didn't get it.

Hello there:
I am missing the boat or are we all going to facebook instead of blogging, or are we doing both.
By now everyone should have got my Relay for life e-mail. I updated my personal homepage twice and I am still not sure if it took.
I joined facebook, but I am still not quite sure what to do, so I will be practicing, so if you dont see any updates soon, I am trying, I promise.

Funny that Alberta was posting about grocery bags, April 20th is Earth Day and our store manager is Wal-marts Earth Day Champion, so we had to come up with ideals for our Adopt-a-school. One of which will be to go to the school and plant some flowers and shrubs. Another was to donate re-usable lunch bags, as this is a very poor community school we support and supposely alot of the kids bring their lunch to school is old shopping bags or paper bags creating more garbage. So for the past two weeks, me, Candice and mom have been doing a little asembly line of clothe lunch bags. I do the outside square, Candice sews the tops, and mom puts through the string. We have about 175 done and should have the rest of the 251 done by the end of the weekend. We had alot of material that we were not using and so much of it was really nice floral patterns, fitting right into our Earth Day theme, I did however, have to get Walmart to purchase some plain grey fabric for the grade 5 and 6 boys, I dont think they would want to carry around a flower covered lunch bag. I dont care how poor you are, you still dont want to get beat up and called a sissy. So this has kept us very busy and so I have been neglecting the blogging thing. But we are almost done, so I will be back into the swing of things soon.
I got Heather's invitation to facebook and Candice is going to get me set up with an account, so thank you Heather.
Keep posting pictures, It's a great way for me to keep in touch.
