November Already?

Looks like I didn't do too well posting in October. It was a busy month with B&B guests every weekend and a week-long training out of town for my new position, which BTW, started TODAY! I am now working part time as a Family Resource Specialist. I will be the one to screen first time moms in our 7 county area to determine what their needs are and to offer community referrals- one being home visitation services (if they qualify) which is what I was providing until today. I will also connect the community with our program participants through things such as church donations and Angel Tree at Christmas. So if you want to "adopt" a family this holiday season, let me know and I can hook you up!!

While in Richmond for training, I got to visit with some special friends and co-workers from my past "city life". If you were one of those who went out of your way to meet with me, thanks a bunch. I had a great time catching up!

The Antique Mall is slowing down a bit at the weather gets cooler. I have been spending most of my time there working on the upstairs where we will eventually move when Roselawn sells. Kiara's room is almost ready and we are getting our plumber in there soon to see what we can do about adding a kitchen.

Haven't taken any pics lately, so just boring ole' words for this post...

Happy November!

  1. Those weren't "boring ole' words"-they were little peeks into your world! It must be exciting to be working on your new home-I don't know how you manage to find time for all that you do!

    Best of luck in your new position

  2. Sounds like your new job and part of my new job overlap somewhat. As a Head Start family advocate, I get to visit in homes and assess the strengths and needs of the families we serve. I won't be surprised if we both end up at some future training event in Richmond. Keep in touch, and maybe we can get together then.
