Copied my Cousin's Post....

I copied the following post from
my Cousin, Megan's, blog. Thought
it was a great idea. What d'ya think?
What are you giving/getting for Valentine's Day?
"Ugh", you say, "I don't even want to think about it".
Yes, I know. Women really only want a heart felt
"I love you" and to be relieved of supper duty
(assuming that there is no hope for jewelry
- we always want jewelry!). Men really only want
one thing and it doesn't cost anything... ahem.

Don't let the traditional Valentine's Day fare
trap you. Flowers, while beautiful, have a definite,
very brief life span. Chocolate, yum... chocolate,
only adds minutes to your workout. You might be
best to give/get an aloe plant and a box of oatmeal.
Handy, yes. Romantic, no.

That's why four of the most intelligent,
good looking bloggers I know and I have partnered
to promote a super duper special Valentine's Day
project. Instead of buying gifts that are a mere
motion, how about involving some emotion?

We (Niki, Andria, Ashley, Jeff and I) have
chosen four proposals from DonorsChoose.com
and we are asking you to help fund them.
DonorsChoose is a website specifically set up for
teachers across the country to request help for
classroom projects, books, supplies, etc. What a
wonderful way to put your money to good use!

We have a blogger challenge set up to see
if we can get these proposals funded before Valentine's Day.
Take a look.

If you are interested in contributing to one
of these (and I hope that you are!) please
do so via the challege website. That way we will know
what funding we are bringing in rather than someone else.
