Brainstorming

I’ve been tossing around an idea of doing a fundraiser in February but I’m afraid we might be too late in getting anything started. We’d have just a month to prepare and less than a month to advertise. Advertising is where I fall flat and advertising is exactly where we need to be to get more people involved.

So I’m not sure what to do. I know by February I’ll have cabin fever and working on a fundraiser idea would help keep that fever away. And if we did it right, parents would be able to get out of the house for a few hours so their kids could burn off some of their energy too. But I just don’t know if it’s possible to do in such a short time frame. I’m thinking it’ll end up falling by the wayside and we’ll focus our attention on the Easter Fundraiser but it’s a shame to miss such an opportunity.

I guess I’m curious to see what everyone thinks. Would it be fun to have a fundraiser in February and if so, what would you be interested in seeing?

In other news, the weather is finally getting nicer. Yesterday morning I was expecting frigid temperatures and they were below zero but it felt nice. This morning when I went out to do chores, the temps were above zero but the wind was howling and made life miserable. We are supposed to get warmer but now the weatherman is calling for wind (i.e., gusty/breezy/windy…take your pick). So I was hoping to pull blankets because of the temps but with the wind the way it is, I doubt I’ll be able to. That wind cuts through anything.
