Is it that time already?

[yummi]

The powder puff race is coming up, and it is almost time to change my signature.

From what I understand, the race is 2.5 hours, looks like a target of 100 miles.

I only know Tut and his wife Pepper from this board, but having seen his generous sprit on here, and his attention to detail, I know that the car will go forever, so making it 100 miles is no problem..... I know that Pepper is looking forward to the race: Desire alone will get her to the 100 mile mark.

Yep, I know first hand that times are tough. I have had a 50% decrease in my business, and I have had to let some folks go. Painful to say the least. I only mention this to provide a frame a reference so nobody thinks I am totally ignorant of what is going on in the world. And, like you I tire of the “give give give” requests. It is fatiguing to say the least. So, I don’t mean to sound like I am on a soapbox.

I also know that I am blessed as I have my health and know that I can beat whatever life throws my way as long as I do. Some folks are not so lucky. We have all seen that first hand.

There are many good ways to be charitable; and I know that we all do what we can when we can. It’s nice that Pepper and Tut have found a way to do good and give back by doing what they enjoy, what we all enjoy, playing in the dirt. If you can, I would encourage a pledge to support that effort.

If you signed up for $0.25 per mile, it would be a $25.00 pledge to breast cancer research. Less than dinner for two. You don’t even have to make your pledge amount public, just shoot Tut and Pepper a PM and let them know.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
