These Feet Were Made For Walking

Rain or shine people came out to participate in the 4th Annual Race for the Cure event held at the County South Mountain Recreation Complex on Sunday, May 15th to find a cure for breast cancer. I had a few responsibilities to perform this year. I was volunteering to stock the ShopRite food tent with volunteers from Minority Interchange, Inc., Trendsetters and of course TheAdsOnUs AND I was also going to walk the 5k with my team. Walking in the event is a first for me!

We were whistling while we worked to keep up with the pace of the hungry runners, walkers, volunteers, spectators, performers and the event staff. I'm not sure how many fresh muffins, juicy oranges and ripe yellow bananas we replenished but we never ran out! Any food that was left would be donated to a local food shelter.


Indy, Renee, Jamaal= Team TheAdsOnUs



It was time for team TheAdsOnUs.com (Jamaal, Indy and me) to line up at the starting line. I quickly changed into the new PINK TAOU tee and sported the logos of MFKB, Cee&Learn, Jays Cake Creations, Raymond Spencer and Promograf X (creator of the PINK tee).

As we crossed the finish line I was very happy to hear the announcer say congratulations to TheAdsOnUs. YAY team - these feet were made for walking, we DID IT! Thanks everyone for all your support.

Catch you next year!

Rain, Rain go away... There is gold at the end.

This Saturday the weather was just not cooperating according to my plan. My TO-DO list was so long and most of my errands required me to be outdoors. I had already made up my mind to just stay in to watch a movie and eat snacks. I know; not a good combination when there is so much to do. I had to pick up films, attend a meeting for MFKB breakfast that TheAdsOnUs is sponsoring, go to the library, fill up my tank and attend a launch in New York. Those were the big items. I was able to get through most of the list in the rain and said if it does not stop raining I will not attend the evening launch that I had already paid for.

God heard my prayer and the rain stopped! Yes, he is awesome. I am so happy that I attended the SheRo launch. There were so many fabulous women entrepreneurs in attendance. All coming together to show support for the event but also to network! It was great. The night concluded with several raffle prizes. I purchased the first two tickets and BOTH tickets won. (I was the only repeat winner). Just because things don't always go according to your plan, never fear because what is for you is only for YOU.




Here is the funny for the night - one of the prizes that I won was a T-SHIRT. Gotta love it! The other was a great pair of earrings made by My Finds Boutique.

TAOU for now,
Renee
