windinthemaplesA note on all things Pajama Program:
* I started collecting/buying pajamas on December 6th with a goal of having 500 to donate by March 7th. I did the reality-check math on that ambitious goal and realize that requires me to add 6 pajamas to the pile each and every day. It seems crazy-difficult and yet, if I'm focused and unrelenting and creative and willing to sacrifice a lot, possibly achievable, too. I imagine, for you on my friends-list, that you'll be hearing about pajamas pretty frequently. I hope you'll bear with me. I have a lot of fun incentives in mind to lure you into my charity craziness. If you feel called to jump in and help, awesome!, if not, I may have your number next time. :) Short of sexual favors, I'm willing to trade just about anything I have and can do for pajama donations. Drop me a note if you have any ideas of what would get you involved...what you'd happily trade new pajamas for. :)
* My BPAL Pajama Jam sale has been a great success. I've traded (or made plans to trade) 10 bottles of perfume and 35 sample-sized imps or decants for a promised 23 pajamas and another $38 to buy more with. There are still 6 bottles and 55 sample-sizes unclaimed! If you're interested in swapping PJs for BPAL or even would just like to buy some BPAL at below-market prices, go check it out! Anything that isn't claimed/reserved by today will be swept off to do other things, so look through the list one more time while you can. :)
* Thanks to those of you who've donated through my Yuljama! Holiday Mix CD sale. I've sold four copies for $35, raising enough money to buy probably 7 nice fleece pajamas. If you'd like to contribute to my Pajama Program Drive via PayPal and receive a feel-good holiday mix in return, please consider donating. I'll be selling those CDs until Friday, December 18th.
* My upcoming fundraiser is a pretty exciting one. If you collect crystals, minerals, and other earth treasures, I suggest that you make sure you have a dollar or two in your PayPal account. It would be well worth your while. ;) :D
* My husband's firm sponsors many charities each year. Their new CFO has suggested that they choose just two to support faithfully each year instead of giving money away to everyone who knocks on the door asking. My husband, as Vice President, gets to pick one of these favored charities and surprised me at dinner last night with the news that he'd picked Pajama Program. I don't know how much that'll translate into being, but the thought had me in happy tears last night. :)
