SPIN OUT 2007: SO CLOSE!
Closer than close - we are SO FREAKING CLOSE to $30K I can TASTE IT! C'mon People!!! If you haven't donated to Spin Out yet, here's how:
For every $10.00 you spend on The Heifer International Gift Registry, your name will be placed in the proverbial hat for prize drawings in October. For instance, if you spend $50.00, your name will be put in the hat 5 times. You can win more than one prize if your name is in there more than once - we will not be pulling out names after a win.
VERY IMPORTANT!!!
Last year I realized that while I get registry data, I don't get exact donation amounts. To get your full raffle value, YOU MUST EMAIL ME THE AMOUNT OF YOUR DONATION! Please send an email, with RAFFLE in the subject line, to donations@spin-out.org. If you don't do this, your name will be placed in the raffle ONE TIME. THANK YOU!
And more good news: while I did throw up today - I WAS PUKE FREE YESTERDAY! Although it did make puking today kind of really really sad, I did have one day reprieve. Things ARE getting better. Here's hoping for a PUKE FREE RHINEBECK (at least on my end. I know how some of you fiber folk can put back the booze. COUGHVickiCOUGH.)
HAVE A FANTASTIC WEEKEND!

Yay for puke free days (I'm now onto my third in a row!). I hope there are many more to come so eventually you'll forget all about the puking :-)

yay! isn't it remarkable when it is extraordinary when you DON'T barf? funny how the perspective changes when the kiddies enter the scene-and that will not change when the little squirt is here! i find myself saying/doing things that i would NEVER have fathomed!! i'm excited for you-you may even want to knit again some day! (if it makes you feel better, whenever i touched any yarn i'd throw up when i was pregnant-well, during the barfy part of the pregnancy of course-the way it felt was WAY TOO GROSS for some reason-weird!!)

May the memory of the puke-free day sustain you... Rhinebeck is soon, huh? Good luck with it!

Hahaha! It's been a long time since I boozed my way to the bowl.
Three days 'til I take wing -- I can't wait!!!

Yay for puke-free! I'll definitely clink water glasses with you at Rhinebeck -- I too am medically enjoined from alcohol (for a completely different and much less cool reason).

In solidarity with you, I think everyone should take the Puke Free Rhinebeck Pledge. I hereby promise to not partake excessively of the vino blanco del Poughkeepsie.

I won't be able to clink H2O glasses with you; I live WAY too far away for that. But here's hoping you can get to a point where you have a whole string of puke-free days!
It's been so long since I had a leaded beverage that I don't even want them anymore!
And I'm SO THRILLED to see so MUCH mulah being raised for such a wonderful cause! Keep it up!
