You will find as we go through this journey together that I am somewhat of a donut!
It is even more worrying that I have a degree in Information Management (the clue is in the title!) I am constantly amazed that I am let out on my own to be honest!
I am asking you for your hard earned dosh and I havent yet told you what I am planning (and in training for - sort of) to do!!
Click on the link attached to see what madness I am about to sign up too!

This is my diary from St Andrews Day, 2010 to St Andrews Day, 2011 on my attempts to achieve all that Jordan presents to me on my trek.

Day 1 - 364 to go! Jings what is this madness that I have signed myself up for?
Well, where do I begin as Andy Williams like to chant. (name that song!)
I suppose I have been nurturing this idea for about three years now, I was quite deeply affected by the loss of a wonderful lady from my church because of cancer. I was always astounded by her strong faith although she knew she wasn't ever going to get better and that she would be taken away from everything that she loved and who, in return, loved her.
I had known her for about 18 years, and although I sometimes never saw her for a couple of years at a time, she was always the same - polite, friendly and welcoming. At times when my life has been very difficult, her warmth and kindness embraced me, it is something I have never forgotten and strive to achieve in likeness.
I know the work of Macmillan in similar situations is a life line for those who are left behind after such a devastating loss and this is my attempt to show my admiration for the work done in a palliative care situation.
Obviously my aim is to raise as much money as I can, I hope that you will stick with me, support me, laugh with (and at me), encourage and berate me but most of all PLEASE SPONSOR ME. (I will be posting my 'JustGiving' account details in a couple of days, when I can work out how to get into the bloody thing!!)
Keep in touch, respond to these blogs and before you know it the year will be in and we will all have a sense of joint achievement.This is Lindabee signing off - ttfn
