$1,002.43 / $6,500
I can't afford to propose to my girlfriends, so today's day 24 of Good Dashing for a $6,500 diamond ring. Better twenty four days, I finally hit $1,000. $1,000 is 96 deliveries or fifty eight hours and nineteen minutes in the car. That's time I spent driving and delivering instead of doom scrolling or binging Netflix. I did the math in the parking lot and just thought, wow. $1,000 down, better $5,500 to go. That's only tier, and I honestly felt a little discouraged. But then I pictured her face when she finally gets to see the ring. I've seen the way her face lights up over the small things. The surprise bubble tea, the chips and guac from Chipotle, and the just because flowers. And the way she makes a cute gasp right before she tears up when she's really happy. I've seen that face for the small moments, and I can't imagine what it'll look like for this one. So a thousand dollars is a milestone, and she's the finish line. But her yes will make every mile worth it. 24 days in, $1,002.43 out of 6,500. I left my umbrella at home. Slow and steady wins the race. Follow to see how long it takes.
