[Nfbf-l] Christmas Party

[Kathy Davis]

This is wonderful news, Mark. Sounds like your chapter is really coming
together and the holiday party obviously was a big success. Thanks so much
for keeping us informed. 

I'll be returning to Ormond Beach this coming Friday and it will be so good
to see my home once again and to sleep in my own bed. I'm learning so much
here at the Louisiana Center for the Blind. It's a tough program but I'm so
glad I made the huge decision to move to Ruston to finally have the
opportunity to engage in my own rehabilitation,

God bless,

Kathy

Well, fellow Federationists, we just had our Martin County Chapter Christmas
party, the first of many, I hope.  It was nice.  Our secretary just took the
bull by the horns and made calls to make sure everyone was bringing
something.  It was a pot luck with ham, turkey, garlic mashed potatoes,
yams, raw vegies, and dessert and coffee and soda.  We had a grab bag at the
end and a split the pot raffle as we do at all our meetings.  Our vice
president brought out an instrument called an omniboard and played and sang
carols we sang along to.  It was nice too because we had a new potential
member and someone who just joined last month, and we invited our reader,
Sharon, and her two children, one of whom is blind.  I'd say it went rather
well.  It was great, too, that considering what our transportation situation
is like here, people who are sighted, even one who is not yet a member but
whom we invited, pitched in and drove people.

 In my own rehabilitation. I have never been able to do this before despite
the ever-dominishing loss of my sight.
