Wow! Isn’t that amazing? $3,088.22 cents were donated to different cancer charities, and I’m sure there are a few donations that aren’t included, and a few people who saw what we did, and have decided to have their own benefit opportunity for cancer!
If you’ve decided to do something as a result of our success, I’d love to hear from you!
Congrats, and I’d like to thank all of Mystical Beauty’s Musings readers that contributed by leaving comments.
I couldn’t have done it without you, so thank you!

We just got some Percula Clownfish. I am so excited.
Oddly enough, we ordered them from our local Tropical Fish Shoppe since the fish stores that carry salt water fish are having trouble with their tanks.
The fish are swimming around happily in their little bags, and getting acclimated to the temperature and stuff in our saltwater tank.
I think Tain, our yellow tang, will be excited to have more tank mates since she’s been hiding a lot more since Puddin died.
I still don’t have the complete total that we raised for cancer charitiess from Comments4aCure.
I do know that the ebay auctions raised $597.50! Isn’t that great?
I’ll let you know the full total when I found out what it is!

Well, it’s about time we had a new look.
Unfortunately the old theme was outdated, and wasn’t working well with Wordpress 2, so I had to upgrade.
I felt like crying as I changed the theme, but I’m happy with it.
What do you think about it?

These auctions will use Missionfish to donate proceeds to a cancer charity of their choice.
Elke, of The Beauty Blog Network has also decided to shake up the main auctions that I posted about earlier, and make more auctions, with a lower starting bid!
The links to these auctions can be found at Comments4aCure Ebay Auctions.
All Lacquered Up’s Nail Polish and Nail Care Products Auction
Beauty and Fashion Tech’s Auction.
Happy bidding!

Her ebay auction will be found at All Lacqured Up’s Ebay Auction when it goes live Sunday.
There are also several other auctions that will start tomorrow, and I’ll send you links to them tomorrow!

Thank you all for your help!
So far we have had 16 comments, 4 of which were mine, but I have decided that instead of donating $16 to the Susan G Komen foundation, I will go ahead and donate $50!
I don’t have totals for the whole network yet, but I’ll let you know when I do!
Although the ebay auctions aren’t up yet, you can see a list of the items at Comments4aCure Ebay.
The bid link doesn’t work yet though.
The trip to Atlanta was pretty much uneventful.
We actually arrived in Atlanta early! I was shocked!
And my purse got searched because “there was stuff laying on top of each other at the bottom.” So pretty much every purse and diaper bag at the airport got searched.
But we’re here, and I’m happy, and I’m off in the kitchen to finish making grits!
Then hopefully to Chick-fil-a for lunch!
Mmm.
Yup, this vacation is all about family, makeup, and food…lol.
The World of Coke counts as food, right?

It’s the last day for comments for a cure, (so keep posting) but stay tuned on Sunday for some amazing Ebay auctions! I wish I had some of that stuff, let me tell you.
I am leaving for Atlanta today, so it’s off to Ulta, and the New world of Coke, and to visit my parents, so I won’t be approving comments until late tonight.
I will only be around occassionally until next week, but I will try to approve comments, and I’ll definitely post the auction information for you, and let you know how it went.
So far I think I have 9 comments….11 counting mine, pathetic, isn’t it?
And there has been $271 donated through Chip In on the Comments4aCure page.
Yay!
In other news…the cory eggs have all disappeared, but it looks like the cories are getting ready to spawn again.
We also have 2 baby mollies.
And these are baby mollies from mollies that were born in our tank on February 6.
They grow up so fast!
After we get back we’ll move the cories to their own tank, and see if we can hatch some fry.
Ok, off to pack, then fly…
Have a great week, and thank you so much for leaving your comments, and making a difference!
This has been a really great project, and I’m so glad that I could be a part of it.
