Money Pledged as of 8/5/05 - $325.00

See the Doing Good section in the sidebar for additional information
about IJM and how to make a pledge.

Incentives!!! Free Tea For All Reasons tea for anyone who sponsors me.
If you pledge up to $25, you will get one bag of tea.
If you pledge over $25, you will get two bags of tea.

So I’m thisclose to hitting the $300 mark in pledges. Who will help to push me over that edge? You can pledge anonymously or using a pseudonym at the official Blogathon website (although you will need to provide a valid email address for notification upon completion of the event). If you would like to contribute and don’t feel comfortable signing up over there, then send me an email (jenspeaks at gmail dot com) and I will take care of registering your pledge for you.

We’re just two days away from the big day - I’m looking forward to answering your questions. Click to that post to leave your inquiries if you haven’t already - there are some good questions and I will answer them throughout the 24 hours.

To stay awake, I plan to have IM set up for occasional conversations with anyone who’s so inclined. I’ll post that contact info later. I also plan to watch some Netflix DVDs - all TV shows: The Shield season 1/disc 1, Danger UXB disc 2; Sharpe’s… disc 5, and The Ultimate Carson Collection disc 1. I have TAR3 set up to record on GSN - so I’ll watch those episodes. I also plan to read - I’m currently reading the new Harry Potter and I’m still working on the Love/Respect book. I’d like to get that one done so that I can pass it on to Beau.

On the free tea - you can choose from any of the teas my mother offers. Check out this page for a list of all of her varieties. Off limits are any items that are not a black, green, white, (white tea is uber-expensive and therefore off the table for the freebie - sorry!) or Rooibos tea. Her special blends are available for your choosing as well. I will need a good mailing address to send it to you. Please email me with that if you want the tea and also tell me which one you want. Once I get confirmation that you have made your donation to IJM, Once the Blogathon is over, I will mail out your thank you gift.

Thanks to all who have already made your pledges. I greatly appreciate your support and I know that every dime will help International Justice Mission to fulfull their mission.

LATER: Come on, people! I’m still hovering under $300. Sponsor me, please…

Friday, 8/5: Thanks to the three people who made pledges overnight - I’m now firmly over $300 in pledges and I am very pleased for IJM.

1. May I recommend the Blueberry Bang tea to your sponsors? Very tasty and smells FABULOUS.

   ....I can’t believe I just said that.
