Game Plan

So, I had this lovely venting post in my head about my freakin fantastic Monday.
I am so so sooo thankful that I never actually posted it.
It was just one of 'those' days, ya know? What Monday isn't?
But as the day went on...my attitude changed.

I was driving home tonight and the song "Unanswered Prayers" came on. Which was followed by "Good Stuff". Sign? I'm thinkin so. If you don't know either one of those songs...look up the lyrics & you'll understand.

I started thinking to myself. Wow. You don't have it all, but sister you have a LOT. You have a family waiting on you at home. Wanting you to come home. You have a precious miracle kicking you at the moment. You have amazing parents. You have wondeful in-laws. You have brothers who want you to not only be their sister, but their friend as well. Your grandparents are as sweet as can be. You have aunts, uncles, cousins, friends all who love you.

Those are the things that count. THAT is the Good Stuff. It is good to have a little reality check every once in awhile. Just a little reminder that redecorating the living room and finding something to wear post pregnancy really aren't important. Soaking up every single moment with everyone I encounter. That is what I need to focus on.

Those two songs aren't really what REALLY what sent my on this hiatus tonight though.
THIS did.....We had a meeting planned for tonight & just yesterday I was informed that someone I hold very dear to my heart just found a lump in one of her breast :( So if you can only imagine the double dose of passion I have for this idea I put before you.

Ever heard of Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure before? Ya know, the HUGE breast cancer walk in St. Louis every June????? Well, The Office Bar & Grill had a meeting tonight and we are planning some BIG BIG BIG things to raise money and awareness for this year's race JUNE 11, 2011. See that I put that in all caps?? Mark your calender. And if you don't have a team or have never walked before PLEASE PLEASE let me know. I'll give you all the information you need and you can join in on the fun. And it IS going to be fun. This is a great cause. If it hasn't affected you personally yet, someday odds are it probably will.

So this is the Game Plan. I am going to set up an extra tab on my page sometime this week. I will be giving updates, information,and motivation so you have no excuse to NOT know what is going on at all times. Talk to your family & friends. They can all join in too!! We CAN make a difference.
