Update 7: slowy getting....sleepy...



Book update: I just finished my 4th book :) I am pretty happy about that. My page totals are at: 813 pages total for the day. I am hoping to get to 1000...but we'll see if I don't pass out here soon :) I am starting Monique and the Mango Rains by Kris Holloway. It isn't very long, but my attention span is short. Let's see who wins!

Personal update: I am getting pretty sleepy. It isn't horribly late, (almost 2am) but I did have to get up and read at 5 am Oregon time this morning. Is anyone still awake? Rock on if you are. Only 3 hours left!!!

I have now earned $124.00 for clean water worldwide!!!
Plus the comments, 115 comments at $.10 each adds $11.50!
Plus trish is adding in $5 for every book she finishes (3 so far)!! That brings the clean water total to:
$150.50 so far!

Where will the dinero ($) go? It will go to an organization I have become quite passionate about. I will be giving it to Living Water International an amazing organization funding the building of wells all over the world in developing nations.
