Billy Garcia Update

by barbara waters

Well, I went over to check out Billy Garcia’s donation page and discovered that he was just THIS close to meeting his goal . . . so I did what any red-blooded American mama would do - I put him over the top. (hey, now . . . this is a clean blog - you KNOW what I mean!)

Now - how about all of you all out there trying to double it for him? Hmmmmm? Come on, you KNOW you want to . . . help Billy help the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation reach their goal of raising $100,000 towards research.

Or maybe you want to help by walking on a team yourself???? Go check out the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation webpage and see if there is a walk in your neck of the woods.

Sounds like fun to me - and, if you DO sign up, comment here and let me know about it so I can talk about YOU, too! (in a very nice way, of course.)

thank ya, thank ya very much!
