"Horseshoes as therapy"


This weekend I ended up participating in a Horseshoe tournament. What a blast from the past! I used to play horseshoes a lot as a kid. I had forgotten how much fun it is to play and really relaxing. What a great way to be active, enjoy the weather and hang out with a great group of people!

That reminds me of an old joke: A couple had been going to counseling for a few weeks. Their next session they both come in with their heads wrapped in bandages. Stunned, the Counselor says "Let me apologize for suggesting that you throw horseshoes for therapy".

Hope all of you enjoyed your weekend too!

Breast Cancer 3 Day Preparations

Time is flying fast! The Twin Cities 3 Day Breast Cancer event is only 57 days away (August 21 - 23) and the Phoenix event is 141 days away (November 13 - 15).

I am now full swing into my fundraising efforts and am very excited!

  • Emails have been sent
  • Garage sale scheduled - found a really cool breast cancer banner to hang (pic included in this post).
  • Purchased Pink Ribbon Magnets, bracelets, buttons to sell
  • Making laminated Pink Ribbons to sell for $10 donations to put the names of survivors to celebrate and ones to remember. I will proudly carry these ribbons with me on my events.
  • PartyLite candle party scheduled. My host proceeds and part of rep's commission will go to my fund.

Plus I am focusing on doing more training walks. It's really fun to meet the other people and definitely feels good to be out and about. So many great trails and parks in Minneapolis area. I just need to keep it up to stay in shape for AZ in November. Hopefully the snow comes late this year in MN!
