Let’s
start with that wonderful list of accomplishments this Round.
- Blogged about my trip to
Africa.
- Wrote a summary of my trip
to Kenya and financial prospectus.
- Set up dates to do my
presentation. The first talk is
this Friday, then I have one in January and two in February.
- Had two sales of my Kenyan
merchandise. Have had three, at which I made a total of over $700.
- Wrote a newsletter for the
nonprofit.
- Finished reading “Shantaram”.
I
have a lot going on yet this month, in addition to the list below, but I think that
I can get it done, along with decorating the tree, writing and mailing out
Christmas cards, baking Christmas cookies, etc., etc.
- My church’s Christmas
program. I have the first real draft finished. I will talk to our Sunday
School teacher and our organist today to see if there are any changes they
think need to be made. Then I will try to finalize everything else on
Wednesday night. I still don’t know if we can pull this off, but whatever.
It is what it is.
- Work on a power point
presentation of the trip. I really haven’t worked on it this week. I do
not know what I am thinking. My first talk is this Friday. Oh, well, just
like the Christmas program, somehow it will come together.
- On the writing end of things… So I started my second memoir about Kenya last week. I am up to 2000 words. Pretty stoked.

Awesome on the first draft of the Christmas program being done. I'm sure it will be lovely.
ReplyDeleteWe will see if the actual program is awesome though. We have three Sunday School kids, three confirmation class kids and four high schoolers in it. Not many warm little bodies to pull this off. But I've always said I would do it for just one kid.
DeleteSo very much good stuff, and,after all this, your relaxed attitude about what is left is understandable!
ReplyDeleteThe article is lovely..and you've got me thinking that Tumaini would be a perfect name for a character in an upcoming project of mine...so thank you! ��
You never know when you will find something to use in a story. Here's another name. Asante. It means "thank you" in Swahili, but I just saw that as a little girl's name yesterday.
DeleteCongratulations on wonderful achievements and an excellent article. I loved the newsletter you sent and wish you well on those future trips (as well as your writing endeavors). May you have a very good 2016.
