China update

China matched referrals for dates July 1-6, 2006.  I'm pretty excited about 6 days....each day gets us closer and closer to September 19th.  I was really hoping for 10 days again this month, but what do ya' do?  By looking at a 2006 calendar if I estimate that they complete a week of referrals each month, then we're 11 months away.  I know that last month I said 8 months to go but that was guessing they moved at a 10 day pace.  I'm back to reality estimating a 7 day pace.  Onto another subject (sort of) we're having our 2nd and last yard sale this weekend (Fri.&Sat).  I still had some stuff left from our first one & some folks have donated more goodies since then.  I'm ready to give Doug back his garage so this will be the end of the yard sale chapter in our fundraising life.  The Rosie Posie children's clothing sale I had a few weeks ago was a huge success.  I have a friend who developed this line of clothing several years ago and stopped production.  She let me have the leftover clothes to sell and we sold A LOT!  The great part was that I got 1/2 the profit of all the sales...it was all free money for me.  She was extrememely generous by letting me have this stuff to sell.  It's been amazing to me to see how my friends have come out and supported all of our fundraising efforts.  We have a few more fundraising ideas for the future but I'm ready to enjoy the rest of my summer without thinking of money for awhile!  Well, off to start pricing...hope to see you this weekend!
