… on a personal note, I’m incredibly humbled by and thankful to the people that bid on my auction items (three social media makeovers). I hoped I’d get bids of $50 or so to help Susan. The winning bids came in at:
Which means that I helped bring in a whopping $425 for Susan from The Great Balancing Act! (She, by the way, is Gobsmacked…)
But those numbers pale in comparison to what we as a community did.

- $23,210 in winning bids
- $3,222 (and growing!) in paypal cash donations
- $26,432 total amount raised
And as awesome as the money is, I’m nerdy over some other numbers, too.
