Tomorrow afternoon, I am going to leave work early so that I can participate in Relay for Life. A few people walk, but the teams man booths set up around a track. They depend on everyone else to purchase what they have for sale. My mother's team sells BBQ sandwiches, chips and soft drinks. People hunt them down. My brother-in-law cooks the Boston butts for the meat and everyone loves his cooking. My sister is in charge of entertainment and my brother-in-law and their foster son are in charge of the PA system and announcing. I help my mother's team and run errands for my sister. At about 10:00, everyone leaves their booth, lights a luminary and walks around the track. Because of my foot, I won't get to help as much as I have in the past, but I will help as much as a can. It is such a good cause. While I'm walking, I will pray for Miss Janice's friend Jan, and friends and family members that are either going through treatments or are survivors. If you want me to pray for someone while I walk, just leave it in the comments.

I hope everyone has a great Friday.
