However, this is the time of year that I do what does not come naturally to me...getting sponsorships for the NYC walk.
I think that the country's economic situation is going to affect my fund raising this year. Although there are still 2 1/2 weeks to go until the walk, the donations are coming more slowly than the last 2 years. I know I shouldn't take it personally, but it's hard not to do so.
Looking forward to seeing you on the 19th.
