The Journey Continues...

Day to Day to life continues.. Jack and I have had a busy 2 weeks.. Our journey has led us 6 hours away to a top surgeon for Jack. It led us through excitement, heartbreak, and alas to hope! We then were led to a concert, The Cliks, that was amazing! The highlight was definitely meeting and talking to Lucas Silveira of The Cliks. As you can see below, Jack was beside himself... Inside anyway! LOL So we are both crushing on this boy that we met and how fun that is!

Now we have a facebook account to keep you, our dear readers, up to date on the needs and wants of the upcoming event "Chest Away Cabaret". What we know and trust is that you are a talented group with big hearts. This we have always known and loved about each and everyone of you! We are blessed to have you in our lives! Thank You All!!!!!!

So now comes the time to announce the goal we have set and tell you our most important needs. We will keep a running goal so that you can see what is happening and how far we have to reach! The Goal is $7000. We have set a goal to reach this by January 2011. Anything over that goal will go into an account to help other transgender persons with surgery in the future. Jack and I have discussed the possibility of exceeding our goal and feel that this is the right thing to do.. Pay It Forward!

So here is a list of needs... I have spoken to some of you about helping already and love that every single one of you I have talked to has said the same thing, "Whatever you need me to do, I am there." In this world, connections make all the difference, and all of you have them.. Thank you for pulling the "favor" card for this boy that we adore... And now the list:

1. A Venue- We need this donated, so if you have connections, work your magic! We need a great space and are shooting for the middle of November! Evening preferred...

2. Singles- We are planning a " Bid for a Bachelor" at the Cabaret, and would love to sell you! Hey, your our friends and selling your ass is for a good cause! How much do you LOVE Jack?

3. Performers- Kings, Queens, Burlesque, Belly Dancers, Fire Eaters.. We want it all!!! If you have a talent, we want to exploit it! (We will house out of townees)

4. Bands- We know a lot of you are talented in instrument and voice.. We wanna hear it and share it!

5. Items- We will be having a "Silent Auction" during this party and are looking for art, clothes, handbags, shoes and of course services! Hotel rooms, Hair, Make-up, ect. Our hope is to put some services together as an awesome package or 2!

6. Volunteers- We will need both behind the scenes and during the action help!

So there you have it.... We are putting it out in the universe and looking to you, our bright shining stars...

Much Love~ J-Girl
