Pushing Forward....

Today is a scary day for me.

I am going to be handing out letters to local businesses asking for sponsorships and donations.

It's not that I am not confident in my project. I am very confident that it is a wonderful idea, and the finished product will be beautiful and inspiring.

However, If you know me, I am a quiet person....well I am a quiet person at first...lol...If you really know me, I can be pretty loud and obnoxious.

What makes today really hard is that I have to ask people for money...which I HATE!

I hope that you guys all realize that the hardest part of this idea was to have to ask for the funds to do it.

If I had the money, I would be in the car already and cross country by now, with no extra funding.

But when you need help, you have to ask for it. So that is what I am doing; I am asking for help.

Of course there are doubtful moments. I can barely get 22 people to read my blog. I have no idea if the 30 days of Random Acts of Kindness to promote my blog and kickstarter are working. I can barely get people on my facebook page who are suppose to be my friends to read or share my blog posts. And its not that I expected it to be easy, but there are daily disappointments...believe me.

But what I do know is that every time some one shares a post, backs my project on kickstarter, or tells me its an awesome idea, I feel amazing.

And I hope that I am making a difference, because that is what this is all about after all.

So now that I am done with "venting" I need to get back to assembling letters and fix lunch so I can get out there.

Have a great day!
