Hi Everyone, I'm back!
I know you just heard from me on Monday, but isn't it great that you get to read another chapter of my crazy life again on Thursdays too?
When I first signed up for the 3-Day I thought... "I'll be fine with the walking. After all, it's just walking, right?" Hahahahaha.
Today I walked six miles. It was no laughing matter.
Last week my daughters and I were in Los Angeles. While we were there we visited Disneyland and walked EVERYWHERE. It was 12 hours non-stop each day over two parks. So, Miss Melissa thought she had it all together since she had SO much experience at Disneyland that she would try something a little different today- more miles and hills.
What was I thinking?!!!!
Suddenly sixty miles is looking like a really long three days for my body and my feet; let's hope my spirit and my wonderful sense of humor can make the pain go away. I know what you're thinking-am I in trouble or what? ;)
Apart from the fear of aching calves and feet tomorrow, I actually have a lot to be excited about! Tomorrow is a big day behind the scenes for Miles & Memories for Melons. Tomorrow we will find out exactly how much Rodney's BBQ is going to donate towards our "Boobie-cue." They have been the sweetest people to work with and I can hardly wait to chow down!
Let's not forget about our T-Shirts!! If you read one of our first blogs, I had posted the picture of our first design. Well we kept the same concept, but brought in a 3 color design to make it pop. These shirts go to the press tomorrow! Take a look- Aren't they cute?? Leave me a comment and let me know what you think!
A big thank you goes out to our T-shirt sponsors for making this possible: Blue Sky Custom Apparel -Watkinsville, Cheatham's Garage-Athens, Beef O'Brady's-Athens, Fellowship Church (Meets @ Nebo Elementary), Mary's Tack, Feed & Pet Store, Brown's Wrecker Service-Winder, Exclusive Pallet & Service-Statham, Proteus On-Demand Facilities-Atlanta Metro Area, Jot 'Em Down BBQ-Athens and 1st Quality Construction- Athens. A Great BIG thank you to you guys!! The sponsors that have websites are listed on the right of our blog, please take a moment to visit their site or use them for future needs. Not one hesitated with our question about sponsoring our group. They have truly been a blessing to our team. Theses shirts will go on sale beginning May 4th, but all blog readers can pre-order exclusively starting today by emailing us at walkforthecure@yahoo.com . Get them while they last!! :D
Well, it's time for me to head to bed. I'm sure I need to get a head start with a bottle of Motrin ready for the aches and pains that I'll feel in the morning. Say hello to Cynthia for me when you read her blog tomorrow night.
Until next week,
Melissa
