[nfbwatlk] Three things

[Lauren Merryfield]

Hi,
Wow, congratulations on the job and new dog and new eyes. That's all
exciting. I got new eyes in August but they were too small after a while so
just Thursday I went in again to have a little added to them so my eyes will
open a little better. 

Congratulations to Don, too!  That is really neat.
Thanks
lauren

Blessings in Jesus' name.

Good evening everyone! I'm trying to make this message cover 
several things.  First of all, I wanted to say congratulations to 
Don Mitchell.  That was a great article, and couldn't have 
happened to a nicer person.  Great going, Mitch!

I'm wondering if those who responded to me about NAGDU would mind 
writing me back one more time.  I'm trying to get our call in 
before I go to Seeing Eye so we could at least have one 
convousation before I head out.  Marci has said that we can use 
the conference call number.  I am thinking of Sunday April 19, or 
Wednesday the 22nd.  If you could let me know which of those 
nights would be good, I'd appreciate it.  I'd like to have the 
call start at either 7 or 7:30, so if you would give me that 
preference, I'd appreciate that, too.  You can also call me at 
509-690-4624.

My third thing is that I was hired yesterday by a small local 
business called Strategic Contact Solutions Inc.  We do outbound 
calls for businesses.  We do things like set appointments, etc.  
I've only listened in for a little while yesterday.  They have 
another blind employee, who also has a dog guide.  This will mean 
that the day after I get back from Seeing Eye, I'll go in and get 
adjusted to the work site, etc.  My boss is very understanding, 
he understood that I already had a class date to The Seeing Eye, 
and when I told him that I also already had a ticket for the 
flight to Orlando for the NFB convention and had pre-registered, 
he said, "Well, I guess you'll be going to the NFB convention 
then." I apologized, and he said, "It's okay, knowing early means 
we can plan.  July 3 will be a day off, so that will give me time 
to pack, etc.  I also told him about the NFB convention in the 
fall, but told him that I did not have any information yet about 
date or location.  He said that was fine, to just let him know 
when I did.  Wow! But I do think I will need to resign from the 
SRC.  It would not be good form to tell him that every quarter I 
have to take Friday off.  Lol.  The PAC meetings are usually on 
Saturday and generally are over the phone meetings, anyway.  So I 
think I'll be okay as far as that goes.

I'm also in the process of getting new eyes, as my prosthetic 
ones are 20 years old, and one of them is not fitting well 
anymore.  They should be done by Thursday.  Exhausting! Lol.

Well, I'd best get going.    Peace,    Debby
