The Day After Thanksgiving
Hello everyone, I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. I spend the day with my family and had a lot of good food. I think I gained a few pounds. I have been reading all the blogs and have gotten so many good ideas and a lot of encouragement from all of you. I am only a alternate but I am trying to do every thing right along with you. I got to admit that today was my slow day, I wasn't out long because it was so cold out and I have to take my husband with me because of his health. It was just to cold for him so I had to bring him home. We both listen in on the calls everyday and have a lot of praise to all of you. I did meet two women today and got their e-mail addresses and only one lady would give me her phone number. The other lady was interested but would not give me her phone number because her husband sleeps during the day and works the night shift at the Steel Mill. I gave her my information though and told her I will e-mail her for a follow up. Monday morning I have a appointment with our local food bank and can't wait. Our food banks are so low with so many people getting laid off. I did take one of the ideas of going to the unemployment office and talk to the people. I took my son with me and he has been looking for a job for 6 months and guess what, He got a job and start Monday morning!!! I was also told by some man that I should go to the local Man Power who helps people with Temp jobs. So I will head down there Tuesday morning before the call starts and talk to those people. I really never realized how many people are losing their jobs. It is so sad and I know these people are needing some kind of steady income. Well World Changer is the answer I truly believe that. I don't have my magic beans so I went and got me 5 buckeyes, they are big enough to make a little bulge in my pocket and I call them my lucky buckeyes. If someone don't know what they are, they are in the nut family and most of the people up here call them Ohio buckeyes. I never heard of them until I moved to Ohio. I am from Plains Georgia and we have pecans and goobers (peanuts) Our former President Jimmy Carter was known as the peanut farmer. I do miss the south and good ole boiled peanuts, but I like the North for the change of seasons, just not all the cold weather and snow. On Sunday I plan on talking to my church family and work on them. I belong to the Women's Out Reach and I do know those women love to shop. I am closing for now, but I will be on the call Monday and will keep reading all of your blogs. I am learning to over come my fears just listening to your stories and know I am not the only one who has fears of talking to strangers. You all keep up the great work, remember there are a lot of us listening in cause we want to learn how to build up our teams. Love all of you!! I will let you all know how I am doing with all of your help and encouragement too. YEAH~ GO BOOT-CAMPERS!!!!!!!!!!
