I was going to say the next time you do the fundraiser, take some pictures and write a little about it... then it dawned on me... maybe we just need a little momentum. Like, maybe as more people share it can sort keep rolling into more and more activity. That is really the most important aspect of sharing - to inspire others.

(I prefer the beef tacos, but I always get one goat - just because. Where the hell else can you go and order goat meat. So cool!)

I think we could all do something like that.

I have pictures of a run we just did for easter. We rode to Galveston to the St. Judes Burn Center and had a box truck full of hundreds of easter baskets for all of the kids and their siblings there. I will put them on flickr and upload them.

This would let anybody share anything they've been doing on our Eden Gives Back blog? Because that would be really neat and could help get things rolling like you said, if as somebody does something helpful like that, take some pictures and submit the story and we'll publish it.

Goat meat is excellent if prepared correctly. It's very healthy for a red meat, too.

I didn't HAVE fruit loops.... THIS morning... I had toast... and NO ONE peed in my coffee either. I have *other* reasons to be grumpy.

IF - maybe the counter could be based an action. Like pretty much every action on the site involved points. So it could be based upon that perhaps, an action that takes place within the 24 hours each day counts, where as idling would not.

I use turkey instead of beef for almost every ground beef type of recipe. Tonight, however, we are having beef stir fry. Kids with grandma and we can eat something that's a little more intimidating to the picky eaters.

That sounds like a great idea. Shouldn't be too hard for the programmers to do.

There's a diner near me that collects donations for our soldiers overseas. You can go and drop off a box of stuff. Could that be something I could take a picture of and write a paragraph on?

I really don't see why not. The clothing drive was just the first thing I thought of and something that seemed like something everybody could do.

Good idea. I don't even know how many points you get for logging on because I'm always logged on. Is it 1 point?

I need to get to those photographer meetings. Evenings are hard, and I'm dealing with a kid with pneumonia and strep right now, so if I disappear, it will be due to a "MOM!" call out.

Okay.
I just didn't know if that was too small a help to put in the blog.

It says at one point we got points for logging in, but I have never seen the point. I just stay logged in all the time.

*hangs head at mom call outs* I thought it would ease as they got older, I was wrong. Just a new set of problems.

No! I think that is almost the point. The small things matter too! It all adds up!

There is no help too small. The only reason we are able to do big things is we are a motorcycle club and all of the surrounding clubs band together. Alone we wouldn't be able to do big things, everything counts!
