Week 7

Hey friends,

Hope everyone is doing well. This week was very busy. I had all the intentions of starting my work-out this week, but I only managed to work-out for one day. This week I am giving no excuses, because I can't let this 18 mile walk kick my butt. I baked a lot of muffins, and stayed up late trying to put everything together, but it was all worth it! I have to mention this week I talked to a small group of teens, I was glad to talk to them. At first when I mentioned about my fundraiser and who it was for they looked shocked. But it was a shock of wow I thought we didn't talk about this. I hope in the future people are able to talk about suicide and mental illness. These small conversations are helping to break the stigma.
The bake sale was awesome! Again I met some amazing people, sharing some great stories. I even met another person who is doing the walk! Some shared of their own personal battles, and I was glad they felt open to talk to me about it...breaking the stigma. From this bake sale we raised $180.00 dollars!! Thank-you all so much!
This week was great, full of many people saving lives. Thanks to all that are making this possible!
