I recently found out that all the appointments for this Saturday's Santa Paws event are booked. When Lynne from the Humane Society told me this I got all kinds of excited because the appointments are every 15 mins. "Man, that's a ton of people!!" I exclaimed. I didn't realize then that the kind of puzzled-okay, whatever you say-look Lynne gave me was because I am a total math dork. It has never been my strong suit. Even though I was once a drafter (that's right...I converted blueprints of houses into CAD drawings...which requires math) I have just never quite grasped it as much as one would think I should have. Imagine that very moment when while talking to my dad (I do that a lot) he informs me that 1 sitting every 15 mins. for 4 hrs. added up to a whopping 16 sittings. (Insert jaw drop here) Not quite what I had envisioned however it is still really good because last year I don't believe we booked all the appointments. Most people just came in and stood in line and yet it was busy, busy, busy--and raised over $4K. So even though it won't be hundreds of people with actual appointments (stupid math) I know that this year will be huge!
Those of you that haven't already booked your appointment for Saturday the 26th might want to try and get in now. Otherwise you are more than welcome to come on down, put your name on the list, check out my oh so cute Gina Alexander bags that I will be displaying, and all the other cool merchandise that Bend Pet Express offers. It's gonna be crazy AND fun!!
