Welcome to Blogathon 2007!
Good morning, and welcome to Blogathon 2007! Mike and I have been anxiously awaiting this day for a couple of months now.
Thanks to you all for stopping by and lending your support! We will be posting at least every 30 minutes for the next 24 hours. If we’re coming up on 30 minutes with no post, please wake us up!
Thanks to our wonderful sponsors, we’ve raised $293 for The Glaucoma Foundation. And with your help, we can raise more! We’re only $7 away from the $300 mark! How about tossing in a few bucks if you haven’t already made a pledge? Remember that every $5 in pledges will give you one entry into the drawing for a $25 Amazon.com gift card to be awarded at the close of Blogathon 2007.
A special thank you goes out to Polli of Polliwog’s Pond. She has been very supportive in the weeks leading up to Blogathon. She was also kind enough to donate 12 little pewter good luck polliwogs for us to award today. We have 19 entries, so you have a great chance of winning if you blogged about our fund raising efforts!
We have had an incredible amount of support from so many people during the past few weeks, and we can’t thank you enough!
Grab your coffee and refresh your page often! This is going to be one wild ride!
Mike and Tish
Good luck. I’ll stop by occasionally to see how you’re doing. Remember … everything you say and do in the 23rd and 24th hours when you’re delirious in your sleep-deprived state can and will be held against you.
Hey Bob! Thanks for checking in :D I’m sure it’ll get rather silly in the wee hours of the night :P
Thanks for the support, Bob!
Go team go! Go team go!
I’ll leave the thought of me in a cheerleader’s outfit to your imagination.*grin*
Morning kids,
I brought coffee and giggles. Just wanted to make sure you were both doing ok. I know it’s still early, but wanted to check on you anyway.
I’ll be popping off and on, so be on your toes.
