The Early Bird ...

so i am not really a morning person ... but i got up early this morning because i thought Buddah had a practice (yup, - i got him up, fed and dressed before i realised my error ... sorry Buddah!) so we ran some errands, had a cuppa, got my garden chores done and talked to THREE people ON THE PHONE (and you know how i feel about talking on the phone!)... peuf! you early birds really DO get the worm!!! i think i really will feel good about my nap later on!

don't forget the Roundhouse (attached to Steamwhistle Brewery!!) has model train rides from noon til 4 today - look for Papa in his overalls and Engineers cap! and then enjoy a cold beer after ... xoxo

ok, off to run a few more errands before we CHOO CHOO it!

The WALK!

Hi!

The Weekend to End Women's Cancers is ALMOST HERE!!!! It is a seriuosly fun weekend hosted by the Princess Margaret Hospital. I have chosen to channel my donations to the Breast Cancer program there. During the Weekend, Participants walk 60km thru the streets of Toronto. On Day 1 we start at the Ex and walk 30km up to Downsview Park. Over night we camp out at Downsview Park in tents (or in the case of the Super Boobie Fairies - at the Holiday Inn). Day 2 sees us walking 30km back down to the Ex! Please support my journey - i am not quite at my fundraising minimum in order to participate! thx!

Use the link below to donate online. THANK YOU!!! If you have already supported another walker, THANK YOU, its such a great cause!

Please Support My 60km Journey

Please Support My Journey

This will be my 9th year walking in Toronto and by next Sept, it will be my 18th Weekend to End Women's Cancer Event! WOW! Thank you SOOOO much for continuing to support me! My team, The Super Boobie Fairies thanks you too!

My 3 best reasons are at home - i do it for my kids, so they can live in a world that is not so scary. I do it for my family. I do it for everyone who has been touched by cancer in their lifetime. Approximately 23,400 Canadian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and about 5,100 will die from the disease. Additionally, over 8,000 Canadian women will be diagnosed with ovarian, cervical, or uterine cancer this year, and nearly 3,000 will die from one of these diseases.

The Weekend to End Women's Cancers is a two-day, 60-kilometre walk through the neighbourhoods of Toronto. I have committed to raising $2000 for this event.

Proceeds from this event benefit The Campbell Family Institute at The Princess Margaret, funding important breast cancer research, education, services and care. Also, this year we are celebrating TEN YEARS STRONG of committing to conquering cancer within our lifetimes! So be a part of this historic journey
Please Give NOW! Your donation goes directly to PMH. You may also consider giving a re-curring monthly donation.

Thank You ! Without YOU, I could not do this!

cheers!
