My second Christmas card came in the mail today and it’s from Melissa of Morrisville, NC – she mentions she’s a lurker and a no-commenter.  With a total of two cards, that’s $2 I’ll donate to help fight lupus, and Melissa was even nice enough to include a contribution as well. 

Melissa, thanks for the card, donation, and being a loyal BON reader!

So that’s one card from Texas, and one card from North Carolina.

A small recap of the experiment of me trying to see if any of you are willing to send me a Christmas card:

Option 1:  You can make a direct donation to the Lupus Research Institute in memory of Kim Geeding.  Have the acknowledgement sent to my address, and I’ll consider that my Christmas card.  I’ve done some research, and out of all the lupus organizations I feel most comfortable with the Lupus Research Institute came out on top.

Option 2:  If you just want to send a card and no money, then I will total up all the cards received before Dec 25, and for each card donate a dollar (up to $50) to the Lupus Research Institute.  If you include any money, I’ll make sure to donate the funds directly to the Lupus Research Institute. 

Send all cards to

Keith “BagOfNothing” Geeding
421 Vista Noche Dr
Lewisville, TX 75067-8345

Please be sure to include the “BagOfNothing” in the name so I know the card comes from a reader and not the dentist or plumber.
