Oh...we're half way there. Ohh....Livin on a Prayer!

It's the song that I've kept singing to myself these past few weeks as I've watched the thermometer on my 3-day site sit at 59%. This chorus of my new "theme" song is my motivation:

"We've got to hold on to what we've got
cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and thats a lot
For love - well give it a shot

Whooah, were half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and well make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer

We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when its all that you've got"

I can't help but giggle as I try to visualize our team decked out in 80's wild Bon Jovi crazy hair and blasting this song for all to hear. Apart from silly daydreams, it also reminds me that we are fighters; fighters for a deadly disease -breast cancer. After humming the chorus (or loudly singing it in the comfort of my own car) it helps me reflect on the fact that there is so much going on behind the scenes. The "Boobie-cue" this weekend, the Parent's night out for Fellowship Church in June and the movie under the stars in July. It's not just that, but the wonderful outpour of support I have received from the people in my neighborhood, The Georgian and my community. I've been asking donations for the raffle this week right and left and the businesses have jumped at the opportunity without any hesitation. I've had donations, but in other ways.

So if you're sitting at home, and it's been a rough week. Play BonJovi's video above, have a moment and reflect on the past week. Remember that sometimes the things that you hope to happen, do, but in different ways.

IN OTHER NEWS...
If you live in the Athens' area, Oconee is having their Relay for Life on Friday. Our team has volunteered to help the organizer's team out by manning their moonwalk booth during the team lap at 7pm....so if you want to see our team in action, we'd LOVE to see you!

Also, the "Boobie-cue" is this Sunday. Hope to see you there!!

To thinking pink (and great Bon Jovi songs that inspire)...
