Well said, Carol. By the way, I can wait till I can pick up my order so that
we don't have shipping costs if that is a consideration.

 Update on Fundraising Efforts for Ohio:
I forwarded our Pampered Chef check to Sherry Ruth today, along with a
donation 
check from Debbie Baker's mom.  We appreciate Donna Baker's nice
donation---she 
did not want to purchase items, just write a nice check to us.  

Since we fell short of the $2000 sales amount by--$358, we did not fall
under 
the 20% profit for our fundraiser, only 15%.   We could have easily sold
over 
$2000 worth of items if everyone had participated.  Like I said previously,
we 
had only 10 people actually sell to friends/family or themselves.  10 people
out 
of HOW many folks in OHIO? We sold $1642 worth of product from less than 20 
orders.   HMMMMM WHAT IF the rest of the folks in Ohio had actually passed
those 
catalogs along and sold to family/friends/coworkers or themselves?????  A
great 
product, a little pricey, but great guarantee and worth the cost.  

Not to continue  beating the same drum or dead horse, but, I do believe 
that more than 10 people are attending National Convention on some kind of 
assistance....  Yet only 10 people particpated in our fundraiser?
Time to get motivated, participate in generating funds in order to continue
with 
the assistance programs.  There aren't a lot of rich benefactors out there 
knocking down our doors to donate money to us..........or if there are, I
have 
not heard about it yet.
I-Pad raffle tickets------I sincerely hope people are pushing those.   Less
than 
a month from the drawing.  SELL, SELL, SELL!  

Orlando, we are coming soon!
