Debbie's Weekly Wrap Up!

Hi Girls,

I hope you all had a great week and are gearing up for the start of Pink October which will be ending with a bang! Our Fashion Frenzy on the 29^th October. Preparations  for our Girls Night In continues to build. Yesterday, I talked to a clothing store – Everybody!  Fashion shop for ladies size 8 to 26. May of be a mistake going in there though as a fell in love with a dress now need to go back and try it on.

Now I need to do some serious arm twisting to get some of my girl friends to model these fabulous designs! Please message me if you’re interested.

The other sponsor we gained this week was the Breast and Ovarian Cancer Center. They have provided some awesome gifts and plenty of information to take home and equip you to Fight Like A Girl!

Speaking of which our Fight Like A Wristbands arrived on Monday look fab. I’ll try up load a picture soon.  They are on sale now for $3 each.

Remember on the night we’re bringing,  swapping,  selling  and buying pre-loved fashion items so clean out your wardrobes and bag up what you no longer need. Somehow I took out 4 large plastic bags and a box of shoes and handbags out of mine this week.

Through developing my Girls Night In blog this year I have learn so much about a community of courageous and inspiring men and women who fight against cancer everyday of the year. Organizations such as the Pink Hope Foundation who work with high risk women (Breast Cancer); the Mc Graph foundation raising money for Breast Care Nurse; other girls who write their own blogs and share their personal stories to inspire others; the America Breast Cancer Site provides much support and encouragement on days I lack motivation and local small business who seek to raise funds.

I am also learning much about cancer, treatment options and early detection. I have a growing sense this is a fight together we can win.

In terms of the blog and its future I am aware I need to stop cutting and pasting from other sites and develop and fresh and informative approach. Which is one reason behind writing my weekly wrap up, it needs to be about my week.

However, I have so many creative friends, it is almost impossible not to know some whose lives haven’t been touch in some way by cancer. Cancer is personal, it has many faces, countless journeys and individual stories. So please feel free to email me your story at debbieonline68@yahoo.com.au

If you’ve been following the blog you may have watched some of dance videos. This blog is about more than fighting cancer, its about celebrating! Its a place to celebrate the gift of life! Its a place to celebrate being a girl! Its a place to celebrate friendship! So come on and let’s celebrate!

There’s one week of school holidays left. You will never get today back. So live it! Take the chance to celebrate life with the kids! Do something silly with them. Make a video of you’re silly celebrations and post it to our Girl Night In event facebook events page. Its suppose to look silly so no need to worry. Dress in pink even better. 

Remember tickets go on sale next Saturday and are available through me; Aimee or the website. Bookings are essential as our sponsors are waiting for numbers.  Your personal invites will be out as soon as possible. So its time to grab your girlfriends and let us know how many your bringing along. Please make sure girls this year know everyone’s coming, its hard to get invites to everyone and where possible I’m doing it by email, so if there’s someone we need to send a invite to can you let me or Aimee know.

So what do you say are you in?
