OK, I'm getting a little nervous.
Through Wednesday, the total given to The Spokesman-Review Christmas Fund is $113,795.57. Christmas is exactly two weeks away. The goal is $425,000. That leaves $311,205 to raise in 14 days.
The fund has reached about the same amount as it had a year ago at this time, but it's still nerve-racking to realize how much must be collected in a short time.
