My Holiday Wishlist

[surrealestate]

My wishlist is pretty simple since it consists of one item: donations to Tufts University in sponsorship of my marathon journey. It's even 100% tax-deductible!

Training is especially challenging right now between the natural obstacles of cold, dark, and snow, and a certain other stressor keeping me up at night. The last couple of weeks have not been great for my progress and I need to turn that around starting today. A month ago I had no doubt that I could do this but right now I'm much less sure. Asking for support when I lack the requisite confidence is terribly difficult, but I have to do it and that's part of the challenge. I can hardly express my gratitude to those who have already helped.


This is me after last week's Jingle Bell Run. Yes, that was the outfit I wore for the race (minus the medal, which we got at the finish line). As is evident by the get-up, I didn't run it for time.



So, anyway, that's my wishlist. Well, that and Dominion: Seaside.

Thank you so much. :)

Oh, and also remember to check the company matching thingie (sorry to use such technical terms) which is a convenient form to see if your employer will match contributions.

Since I work for a nonprofit I'm pretty sure they don't do this (checked anyhow, nopers). Someday I will sell out, don't worry :)

Er...I hate giving personal info on the web...could I possibly just hand you money? Yuu could fill it out anyway you like (without using my name)...

You could definitely do that. If you'd like, I'm happy to do the online transaction on my credit card in person with you and you can fill in whichever parts you'd like. (I've already donated to myself, anyway.)

Thank you. :)
