Turkey...and soda!

It's Tuesday and I'm back at work after a long holiday weekend. I shared a successful and delicious Turkey Day with many different family and friends and I was also able to collect about 30 or 40 tabs over the past few days. Not a lot when you consider I want to offer a 1,000 tab minimum for auction so I can maximize proceeds collected for charity. But, as they say, patience is a virtue and great things can grow out of small things in time. So, I will just continue to collect and see where I am in a few more days...

Day One

Welcome to my blog! Today is the first day I have attempted to setup any blog of any type. It's exciting, but also definitely a new experience. I wonder - will anyone ever even read this stuff? I am dedicating this blog mainly to discuss my fundraising efforts with the collection of soda can tabs.

So far, I have successfully raised about $10 this year for my pet charity, St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital (they treat children with unusual forms of cancer) by collecting several thousand soda can tabs from family members and friends. I am located in Northern Virginia and my aim is to increase my collection efforts on a local level by letting more people know what I am doing.

Since today is Thanksgiving, I would also like to wish everyone a Happy and peaceful Thanksgiving! Thanks for visiting!
