Fingers Crossed

This week I made a decision.

I am proud of myself, because decisions are normally hard for me to come by. 

Yes, I am that indecisive type. That one who is standing at the counter of the deli holding 

everyone else up because the classic roast beef sandwich and sour cream and onion chips sounds awesome but man does that bacon cheeseburger in the hot counter window make my mouth water!

 I made a decision. (Hold your applause)

It all started the other day while I was working. I had been toying with the idea of volunteering

in some capacity for a while. I didn't know where. I explored different options, came up with helping to

clean New York City and help the environment. Maybe do some soup kitchens, or midnight runs. 

Put some hours in at a daycare center for free and get to play with some kids, or even help

with rescue animals at a shelter. I nixed that idea really quickly because I knew I wouldn't be able to handle having to put any animals down or see any animals hurt... it would make me angry, like hulk angry!

As I was saying, I was at work and I began helping a woman who told me she had a special event coming up and she needed to look good for it, she was picking out some cardigans and wanted my opinion on a particular one... turned out it was a pea soup green and we voted a big NO on that! As the time went by she began to reveal a little more, that this special event was actually her and her husband appearing on the TODAY SHOW! She began telling me it was because their website had basically gone viral. She began telling me that her husband took picture of himself in a pink tutu, she started giggling and saying that it seemed ludicrous when she put it that way but that I needed to look at the website to understand. Telling me that it was a way to deal with her 9 year struggle with breast cancer and their way of bringing awareness to the cause. We chatted for a while longer and it hit me like a ton of bricks.I wanted to volunteer for a children's cancer hospital!  I wanted to help, to make a difference to people who usually don't seem to have much to brighten their spirits, I wanted to be the person to help make their lives easier to give them a little happiness. I decided that is just what I am gonna do! I put in two applications and once I hear word back I will tell you more but keep your fingers crossed for me, please!

As for now, here are some pictures off of The Tutu Project website.

The pictures are truly amazing and the cause is even more extraordinary! 

Lend them your support if you can, even if it is just keeping them in your prayers!
