I'm going to post a message my sister sent to me the other day. She's running her first marathon in January and is trying to raise money. If you're interested, just follow the link in the letter. Thanks! BriBlue


"Hi I am Bri's sister, Bobbi Jo. It has been a goal of mine to run a marathon (26.2 miles) , but when I trained a few years ago I wasn't able to run it due to being diagnosed with Lupus. I was sick for 2 years - in and out of the hospital, barely able to function. I have now been in remission for 3 years and am trying again to reach my goal. I am running with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team in Training. They train people to compete in long distance athletic events in exchange for raising funds for cancer research. In July I couldn't even run 1 mile. This week ago I ran 18! I did my first half marathon (13.1 miles) in San Antonio in November. If you would like to donate to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, here is my web address.

Also, I am still selling Pampered Chef stuff - it makes GREAT Christmas presents. You can order online off of THIS website and have it delivered to your door.
