Countdown!

This will be one of my shorter blogs due to the holidays.

I was supposed to do an interview with Sarah on Wednesday, but it got canceled. However, I have mostly been working on last minute details for the Healthy Holiday event that is just one week away!!! Missy and I have been in contact all week talking about the fliers and exactly what should be mentioned on them. She is even making business cards for us!

I have been checking in with my friends who are participating in the food aspect of the event because I don't want to let any concerns they may have slip through the cracks. I am having coffee with one girl this week who wants to go over some of the food details, she is a perfectionist and is worried about making just the right thing. I ran into another participant on Saturday who wants to go over her section on 'healthy fun.' She is getting her masters in Social Work and one of her teachers wants to use her idea for another project. I am definitely blown away by how many people want to participate in this event and are willing to help out.

My Mom, who is addicted to knitting scarves, donated about 25-30 scarves to the event. They are tied with a ribbon, so thoughtful.

We are planning on holding a clothes drive, possibly at the Polish Home Hall. If we do not use all of the scarves for the Holiday event, we will hand them out during the drive. We are prepared to host the drive after the semester is over due to time restraints.

I have e-mailed both Carol and Sarah about locations for the drive and am waiting a response. I also mentioned it to Gail in an e-mail I sent asking for a moment at the CCBB meeting to talk about the Holiday event.

Tomorrow, Monday after class, the ladies and I will be passing out fliers for the event and then attending the CCBB meeting. Hopefully, we will be able to stand up and talk about it for a decent amount of time.

The rest of the week will be full of scrambling to get last minute things done, meetings, and possibly a re-scheduled interview with Sarah.
