Really wanting this dog!

I've been thinking about the dachshund a lot lately.. Her name is Licorice, if I haven't said that before. Anyway, I really want her. I haven't met her yet, but for some reason, I can just feel it... She'd be perfect. I still have to call Peggy, and then maybe I can set up a time to go meet Licorice.. I'm going to call Peggy tomorrow sometime, and hopefully get a meeting set up with her early next week. And Sharon, as well. Apparently, Sharon knows Licorice...

Now we're getting somewhere!

I had a meeting with Kristina today. She gave me all the contact info for her three friends, and hopefully I'll be in contact with them tomorrow. I may not get to meet with them until next week, but that's ok. They all sound like they'll be VERY helpful, and I'm extremely excited to meet them! I also have the name of a certifier to talk to.
As for the fundraising issue, we decided that with the money I'm putting towards it (all my christmas and birthday money), the $50 the troop is giving me, and the money I'll get from selling cookies, I should have enough. I also have a friend who said he's willing to help out if needed. :)
Kristina also said she has a dog I may be interested in.. I'm going to talk to Peggy and Sharon first, and then consider meeting the dog. It's a black and white longhaired dachshund.
And to all of you out there reading this, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
PS- If anyone is wondering about Stormy, I'm not getting her. I'm not sure what happened to her, but she is not on the website anymore.  Hopefully she went to a good home!

Reply to proposal forms!

Well, I got a reply today! They like my idea. But not how I'm fundraising. Apparently it does not comply with GSUSA and council rules. So, I have to change that. But then I should be ready to go! I am going to email Kristina tonight to see what she thinks about what they said. Maybe she'll have some ideas...

Making progress

Got a meeting set up with my project advisor today! Tomorrow night at 5. Yay! That means I can get my forms signed and sent in, and kristina has talked to one of her therapy dog friends for me. I'm really excited to do this project, and she is too, so hopefully it will work out really good!

Havent gotten anywhere..

I haven't really gotten to do anything on my gold award lately! Not good. But I called my project advisor today to set up a mesting. She didn't answer, so I left her a message and I'm hoping she calls back yet tonight. Let's hope it goes well!
