I made an embarrassing discovery as I was kind of straightening up at home last night. (My modest activity could in no way be called “cleaning.” It simply didn’t rise to the level. Not even close.) I discovered I had broken Blogging Rule No. 38. If there were such a place as Blogger Jail, I [...]

Well, I didn’t intend to spend so much time in the Medical Tent, especially not halfway through the first day. Having done so, however, I have the unique opportunity to talk about the sheer awesomeness of the medical staff caring for Susan G. Komen 3-day for the Cure walkers.   So, here’s the deal.

Each bracelet represents a warrior, a survivor or somebody who is missed each and every day.

Can you believe it’s been more than seven months since I signed on for this crazy thing we lovingly (most of the time) call the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure?
