I can't believe it's already Christmas week! Christmas is on Thursday. The holidays are insane. There is so much to do & you don't get any additional time to do all of it. Sigh...but it's fun, is it not?

In addition to work, all the regular hubbub, Christmas shopping, and holiday parties...The spirit of Christmas is all about spreading good cheer & helping each other out, and just being an all around good person. My friend Mojan (actually her sister) needs some help. It's for a good cause, and if you are in need of a good deed to top your Christmas "to do" list...here is it:

"My sister, Mojgan, needs your help. She only has one week left to raise the $2700 required to run in the AIDS Marathon. If she doesn't raise this amount, she won't be allowed to run in the Marathon, and this would be crushing (for me more than her, I think). Now, I'm no mathematician, but I'm pretty sure that if a lot of people contribute just a little (wee) bit, it'll add up to a lot of money. So if you can spare a few bucks, go to www.aidsmarathon.com and click on "sponsor a runner now." Scroll down and click on the Washington, D.C. Fall Marathon (Mardi Gras Marathon). Her Runner (Participant) Number is #3212."

...I gave $20, and I'm feeling all the more warm & fuzzy inside already!
